Casio Watches

Just really something that would go well when wearing a suit as well as when im wearing tshirt and jeans to the pub, i want some thing that is full metal, looks good.

I would like one that updates the time itself, as to have an Alarm and be Water Resistant
and I have around 250 to spend.
 
That Casio is nice; for a Casio. Surely you can get something other than a Casio for £250, it looks a bit... busy for my tastes though.

Casio aren't bad, I'm just not sure I'd spend £350 on one.
 
Well for £250 you're looking at a quartz, which are really accurate, so I don't see the need for it to update the time itself, setting the time when you get it and twice a year and setting a date isn't a massive harship.

I take it that by "full metal" you mean a metal case and a metal bracelet? Analogue display or digital?

I love my G-Shock solar atomic - it's been through all kinds of abuse and is still in perfect condition, which is the whole point. It wasn't as expensive as that one though. Personally I wouldn't spend that much on a Casio - the whole point is that they're an indestructible, but cheapish, beater watch. I have other nicer watches that I bought for their looks/quality.

Casio is like saying Amstrad, Alba and such like but they do make OK products but are not taken seriously.
I have always wore under £10 Casio watches and they even produced the first domestic polyphonic keyboard sampler for £50.
I've even taken Casio keyboards on stage with me but expected to get a smirk if somebody spotted them.
Wearing a £250 Casio watch is still wearing a Casio watch like a Lada is still a Lada no matter what they put under the bonnet.

lol I had that watch for a while


brilliant

to the OP why do you want a casio?
 
The coolest watch I ever had was the Casio remote control watch, so much fun was had in school changing TV channels in assembly and lessons where the video tape was being viewed :p
 
I've had a casio wave captor for 5 years now for everyday wearing. It updates to a UTC radio signal twice a day so it's always on time to the second. :)

I had one of them, it made "rest" after lunch (reading time) much more enjoyable when you could switch the TV in the room off standby :D

Did get caught cheating once using my calculator watch when I was 11 though :(
