CasioCasio 10 Year Battery, Black, One Size, AE-1500WH-1AVCF

This is a fantastic Casio watch and very much worth the £27 asking price.The display is large and very clear and no part of this watch feels cheap.The battery has an apparent lifespan of 10 years and the watch can be used up to 100m underwater which is brilliant.Overall the watch is very comfortable on my wrist and looks great. I’m very happy.On the negative side the watch was shipped from Amazon US which I had hoped would be at least shipped in a box but wasn’t. It came in a thin bag as if was being shipped to a local address in the US and consequently the Casio box was in bits after 2 weeks shipping when it arrived but thankfully the watch was ok so in future I would think twice prior to ordering anything from outside Amazon US.

Gotta love this one... The display font size is huge, which is really helpful for older eyes...!!! I noticed one other reviewer here that suspected G-Shock internals and I totally understand why anyone would think or say that, this thing is tough indeed...!!! I have a growing collection of these inexpensive Casio digital watches, some G-Shocks too, but this AE-1500 is a major go to watch for me... One thing that might appeal to some people greatly, is that this is the ultimate watch for overnight use... That display size and the nice & bright Illuminator mean that you can see the time almost instantly, without getting too disturbed - a real advantage...!!! One caveat is that it is a big watch though, so do bear that in mind if you have smaller wrists... Very highly recommended and a genuine bargain...!!!

Well first off I think it important to emphasise that I do like this watch a lot, and am keeping it, regardless of the fact that it has the idiotic backwards date display of the month before the day. Also please be aware that the Casio warranty on these watches serms to be only for California, so any problems you are told to contact the place from where you made the purchase - I believe therefor that they are imports.The first thing I noticed is that the LCD display was not as 'clear' as I was expecting it to be. That is to say that the contrast between the time elements and the black was not as demarked as it seems to be in pictures or review shots. The result is of course that it can be pretty difficult to see on dull days and so even in the daytime you may be using the light although angling the watch just right will also work. Doing this will probably allow the watch to get close to the promised 10 year battery life. On the plus side the built-in light it relatively good and really does a good job of illuminating the elements of the watch (though nit as brightly as in my pictures).Other than that, which is a minor issue, and the idiotic Anerican backwards date display, for the price this watch is brilliant.It is comfortable on the wrist, it is satisfyingly large and chunky, even on my rather large wrists and it looks great too.It came with 'real' instructions in a thick multi-langwage booklet, but you won't need them. The labelling on the buttons are enough to get it done with little or no effort.It has five alarms (which I will never use).It has a Countown Timer, also which I will never use. It has a stopwatch, which I will use and a Dual Time which in my case, I set for the change in summer/winter. It can also be changed between 12/24 hour display with the press of a button, each press in timekeeping mode switches it, leaving a 'P' to the left of the hour in the afternoon for the12 hour display.It's comfortable to wear, the stepped indents on the strap near the watch allow for good air circulation, it's pretty light and the acrylic covering the face is well protected, being a good 3mm below the top of the outer rim of the case.So all in all it is well worth the money. So much so that in 2025 I bought the other versions; this model and the greenish one, both with the standard display.

Probably the best watch you can buy for the money. Very easy to read and 10 year battery means you put in on and don't need to worry.

So far so good, fits well, works well, all round good watch. Looks like an expensive g shock too which is a bonus

90% of a G-Shock at 1/3 the price. Very easy to read for a digital. Backlight is adequate if not the best. 100m water resistant and 10 year battery. Strap is a bit better than the cheaper versions but there are better. This watch has performed best when in difficult conditions such as heavy rain where the big digits are still easy to read. Excellent for camping and outdoor activities. Why risk using a fancy Swiss watch. Looks a bit tactical probably not a watch to wear to impress.

Very happy with my watch amazing value for money

I use it everyday for work.Must have large legible display.Amazon for timing keeping.
