About this deal

I love the A168WA’s sleek and retro digital design. Vintage fans and the nostalgic are its main audience, but it has plenty of crossover appeal. Men with small wrists who are looking for an affordable digital watch love it. Many say it isn’t ideal for men with bigger wrists but I think it’s a matter of taste. Since vintage watches are expected to be smaller, I think the A168WA looks great on most men. I’ve certainly been guilty of minor watch snobbery. For me, much of it has revolved around ‘fashion’ watches and the brands hawking them. I’m also a believer in being patient when I invest in something. I appreciate quality and craftsmanship, not only in watches but in other things I buy as well.

This is really similar but is slightly newer and features some upgraded features. So, in this post, I thought we’d compare the two, so you can decide which may suit your needs the best. I’ll also reveal which of these I’ll be wearing moving forward. Some A168WA pros include affordable brand recognition, reliability, a quintessential retro style, lightweight wear, and excellent function and design for its price. Those who simply need an understated reliable timepiece love it. It’s also popular among the techy set, the hip and ironic crowd, and collectors with high-end tastes who appreciate a watch with heritage and lore, price aside. The digital face itself doesn’t take up too much room, which gives this color scheme the spotlight. As mentioned, the case isn’t real metal, but it’s pretty reflective and legible at all angles, even at night. It certainly looks like an affordable watch, but it doesn’t look like it’s cheaper than it is.

The quartz movement is obviously reliable. According to Casio, it has an accuracy of +/- 30 seconds per month, which is better than any budget mechanical. Bonus points for its seven-year battery life, and that it won’t need much maintenance in those years. Functions and Capabilities I wasn’t expecting to like this watch as much as I did. But, it taught me a lesson about what watches mean. For some, it may be getting the flashiest or the priciest. But, for watch people- real watch people- it doesn’t matter. Sometimes, when people first get a taste of higher-end timepieces, they fall into the trap of looking down on cheap ones. If you’re not splashing a lot of cash, what’s the point? The watch isn’t worth your time or money. In my opinion, this watch’s cons or par for the course in this price range (hair-pulling aside). However, the pros punch far above its price-point’s weight class.

The thinner links do make it more flexible and adjustable. Though I should mention that some men have complained about hair pulling.You can use the bottom left pusher to cycle through the watch’s various operations. First is the alarm function. Then the stopwatch, which is pretty intuitive-start/stop on the right and reset on the top left. Finally, you get to where you can set the date and time. Powering the watch is a common Japanese quartz movement. Quartz movements are popular due to their accuracy and reliability requiring very little in the way of maintenance.
