Durable, Functional and Long Lasting. Well worth the money

Oct 7, 2005 - By E. Ham (Washington State)

I've used this model for past 10+ years. I don't remember when I first used this one, but the last one I had finally died after about 10 years, earlier this spring. So, I bought another one, exactly same model. I don't remember whether I had this model or another cheaper model before the previous one.

But the previous one went with me from the cold winters of Chicago to the sizzling summers of Iraq where temperature was well over 140+ degrees (I know this b/c others with Suunto watch with thermometer told me). Used it when I was swimming, kayaking, running, biking, etc. etc. I remember changing the battery at least once and changed the strap 2 or 3 times.

So, when the last one died in April of 2005, I went out and bought another one. This one should last another 10 years. What more can you ask for for $20?

The watch has all functions I need. Alarm countdown, stop watch. It is simple and light weight. I can wear it to do all kind of sports.

casio watch

Jan 28, 2007 - By saggman54 (Tacoma Wa)

great watches Have had about ten of these in the past 20 years. None of them has quite working... I break the bands and obliterate the faces (melting scratching etc.). they resist water and solvents (gas, paint thinner, etc.) And they keep good time.

Casio W71 is my longtime favorite.

Jul 22, 2007 - By Thomas B. Snow (Lafayette IN)

I have owned several Casio W71 watches in the last 10 years. I wear one continuously. I work, swim, garden and do everything while wearing this watch. In fact I scatch the face, break the bands and use them until they are worn out. This purchase is to replace a W71 that is about 3 years old.
The ordering, shipping, and billing was no problem. I will probably buy another W71 in 3 years if they are still available.

Great watch!

Oct 14, 2007 - By Eric (Freehold, NJ USA)

I have owned three of these watches over the past 15 years. None of them have ever stopped working. In fact, I use the "old" ones while doing work around the house like painting. It is a simple, lightweight watch that I can use while working out, going to the beach, etc. It is also a great travel watch due to its dual-time feature. Whenever I travel overseas, which can be for weeks at a time, it is always the watch I bring. I have looked at replacing it with fancier Casio watches, but I have never found a good reason to.
