My old watch is perhaps 18+ years old, keeps perfect time.
I think the back light died a few years ago, and the compass…

Vintage Ladies LCD Seiko Watch – Battery type?
The battery in this watch is a TR721 and I need to replace it. However, I can’t find any references to this battery.
Does anyone know the equivalent battery needed?
Thanks,

Wv56 (2587) viewing angle terrible – repair? Polarizer? Zebra strip?
Same problem is persisting – terrible lcd viewing angle. I’ve attached he’d pictures. It’s perfectly legible at a low angle but basically unreadable straight on making it not really wearable. I have like $8 in this watch and don’t mind messing with it. I took the module…

SKXMOD & steel case conversions

My nephew is turning 18 soon, and he likes hiking, so I thought that an ABC watch would be a great gift for him.
Solar power and radio control is a must, so I found PRW-3400Y-2JF on Sakura (I don’t have any experience with that store, but it seems to have some good feedback in this forum). And I think it’d be pretty cool to have a JDM model.
However, I’ve also found PRW3500 on…
Casio poor LCD’s and LED backlight – Mad Watch Collector gets to the point
There is nothing to add except perhaps my own experience:
Casio A1100 (179 €) vs. Timex T80 (50 €) …and now make up your own mind.
Mini ABL-100 Review
I’ve had the watch for 4 days now and worn it about 10-12 hours each day.
The watch is a touch larger than an F91/A168/A159 etc and all the better for it. It has a nice metal bracelet reminiscent of the older 1980s Casio style. I’ve found it comfortable to wear.
The case is Ion plated chrome over resin and the biggest let down of the watch. I would have preferred to pay a little more for an all Stainless Steel case. Casio…
