Even my tech-savvy daughter has one, an import model in her favourite shade of yellow. The F-91W was designer Ryusuke Moriai’s first project for Casio, and to say he got it right the first time is an understatement, to put it mildly. With its winning formula of cost to features, it’s hard to imagine anything else putting up those kinds of numbers. That is, until a quiet drop by Casio started burning its way up the charts. For athletes and all those who want to know exactly: Elapsed time, split time and end time are measured with an accuracy of hundredths of a second. The measuring capacity of the watch lasts up to 24 hours.

Another neat fact: In most modes, there are usually three operations happening between these screens. It’s a neat bit of visual tech that showcases Casio’s grasp of design, technical skill, and user interaction. Torture Testing (Photo/Josh Wussow) And take a look at the way the lugs join the body. Because of the narrowness of the joint, swapping in another band (like, a NATO, perhaps) will result in something that looks almost comically skinny. Conclusion: Casio LF20W Review And speaking of wrapping around an issue, the band itself poses a bit of a problem. Don’t get me wrong, the resin itself is comfortable, and I have no complaints as to its durability. But it’s actually fairly short, and I’m worried that folks with a large wrist size will find themselves squeezed beneath the last notch or two. (Photo/Josh Wussow)Then there was the drop test, measuring its resistance to repeated second-story falls. When the watch shrugged off these impacts, I strapped it to the business end of a trekking pole and strolled a few miles through the forest. Again, zero trouble apart from a few scratches on the mineral screen. i/trending 68915 Is this brand new Casio the one to unseat the best-selling watch in the world? D.C. Hannay Firstly, there’s the display: bigger, bolder, and with an analogue face above the digital readout. It’s a look that recalls the cult-favourite AE1200WHD-1A World Timer, aka the “Casio Royale”, but with a cleaner, less cluttered aesthetic. Like the Royale, the new LF20W includes comprehensive world time functionality, with 31 time zones, in addition to the usual time, calendar, and chrono functions.

Next, I’m a little perplexed as to why Casio chose to include bio-based resin in the band, but not in the rest of the case. This is a fairly minor quibble, but if you’re going to go partway with the eco-friendly thing, why not go all the way? For those who want to know exactly: The countdown timer helps to remember special or recurring events by emitting an acoustic signal at the set time. The time can be set every second and up to 24 hours in advance.The daily alarm, in which an acoustic signal sounds at the set time, reminds you of daily recurring events. This model has five independent alarms - especially convenient for taking medication on a daily basis or keeping regular appointments. Enter the new LF20W (a super-clean reimagining of the 1985 AE-20W Twin-Graph), which pinged my radar in an Insta post about a week ago. It’s got a similar profile (37.8 × 33.7 × 8.6 mm) and its lightweight construction (23g) keeps with the F-91W’s, but the retro-futuristic look seems to be grabbing fans’ attention with both hands. Not only did the watch suffer the daily hazards of work, chores, hikes, and bike rides, but it also endured several of my more rigorous tests.

If desired, the key tones can be switched off with the mode button. After switching off, there is no longer a beep when switching from one function to the next. Set alarms or countdown timers are still active after switching off the key tones. And when compared to the sprightly Twin-Graph, the new watch is much lighter on the face graphics than its vintage inspiration.

The time display can be set to 12- or 24-hour format. In 12-hour mode, there is a p in the display for the second half of the day, i.e. 12 noon to 11:59 p.m. Arguably, the least useful screen is the constant 10-second pie chart in the upper right, though I did find myself using it as an easy way to mark the passage of small chunks of time. But looks aren’t enough to vault the LF20W into the halls of Casio’s vaunted classics. First, I had to test its ability to stand up to pain.
