I am a Casio lover and collector. I bought an SGW-100 maybe ten years ago. It was a good watch for keeping time and it was very easy to read. The sensors are mediocre at best. The compass needs to be recalibrated quite often and the temperature sensor is not that accurate because it’s mounted to your wrist. After about 5 years I was unable to change the time on the watch. I still wore the watch for a couple more years but only 1/2 the year during daylight savings time. The watch did keep very good time. I went two years without needing to reset the time.
Thank you for sharing your experience! It gives more reassurance that this watch does the essential stuff well enough to last for a long time.
Something to bear in mind is that extra stuff weighs more on trails. Carrying a dedicated thermometer, compass and watch weighs more than just this watch. Also, you might not need all those things on trail, since most of us use phones and sometimes walk on well designated trails, but you might still find some use from them for convenience sake. Like if I want to complain about the temperature to my friend, I just need to look at my wrist and then I can do so. Or maybe you just need to know which direction at a trail fork to walk, and dont want to have to fish for the compass.
Lastly, if youre genuinely stranded and lost, youre guaranteeing yourself a compass on your person as long as you have that watch too. Watches have better battery life than your phone, so there is a use case.
Thank you for sharing your insights!
I own this watch. Great buy. Excellent review!
Thank you! One of my favorite watches, defiantly the best backlight in a watch in my opinion!
Very good review.
Thank you!
Your cuts are way too close, it makes it hard to follow if you don't breathe and let us soak in what you just said. Try leaving more space between your cuts. (Not trying to be a jerk, it might help you in the future)
You are right, I need to slow down a bit. Thank you for the feedback!
You can adjust the playback speed 😂
Good watch with two significant flaws: stopwatch duration is too short, so is the illumination. Make one with a 24h stopwatch and at least 3 (better 5) seconds backlight and add a vibration alarm and I'll buy a dozen right away.
I agree! If those things are added, this watch will seriously compete with the entry-level Pro Trek watches.

I own this watch in negative display. Love it.
I do like the colour scheme on that negative display version, enjoy it!
If you drown, your watch will survive. This thought gives great comfort.
At least the time your body is found can be recorded with high level of accuracy.
…and they won’t need another watch to record the “pulled from water” time.
nice i have Casio illuminator and i use it as a daily driver its soo good
I am glad to hear that!
Here is the trick of the temperature you just adjusted 3 or 4 minus and the temperature will be accurate in general it will be like that but some others will be different it could be minus 2.
Thanks for the tip!

Around 15.9cm
It's not in stock in India and probably will never be.
That sucks buddy, let’s hope it will one day!
@@simplewatchtalks They are selling their premium range pro trek but not the budget ones. The sgw series only sells in mostly black
