A nice piece of kit 5 by .. Tom ()
The watch itself is beautifully slim, simple and lightweight. Appearancewise, I can only really fault the chromium/resin case around the face; it looks a little plasticy compared with the matt finish of the wrist band. However, this is just personal preference. For a relatively small watch, it maintains it's manly appearance well.

The wrist band has an elegant locking traveller system that fits even my skinny wrists easily. I expect it would fit thicker wrists to if required.

As for longevity, my father has had one of these for years and never had a problem with it. It has even maintained it's water resistance despite having it's battery replaced.The only damage it has sustained is a few scratches to the face, a fate that would have befallen any watch under the same conditions.

The watch emits a barely audible tick, which you can only hear with your ear almost pressed to the case. In stark contrast, the alarm is nice and loud, if a little high pitched.

Over all, if your looking for a lightweight, cheap, reliable, slim and elegant man's watch, this is the watch for you.

This Casio Men's Dress watch #AQ230A1D is one of Casio's first ana-digi watches, and has several functions, including a dual-time feature. I had worn this watch after college as my first business watch ca. 1981. It lasted for years and years, and then went missing. I spotted it recently at a mall kiosk, where they offered it for $60.00. I couldn't help but buy it here for about $19.00! The watch is still simple, elegant, lightweight and slim. Most new ana-digi watches have giant cases that stand high off the wrist. This watch is thinner than my expensive Rado. The watch weighs next to nothing. The band on this watch is also easily adjustable, without anything more than a gentle screwdriver to pop up a clamp on the back side of the bracelet lock. There are no links to remove. I always wished the watch had a backlight, but Casio wasn't building them that way in the 1980s. This watch also comes with a white face. I bought both.
