    10 year battery, totally forgot to mention that. This is really based on shelf time, illumination use etc. Nevertheless, a great thing to have. Going to last a looooong time😁👍💯

      The straps on Casio digital watches always perish LONG before the watch/battery itself dies.
      The strap on the DW-291H looks a bit more substantial than the straps on entry-level models like the F91w or the F94w

    I absolutely L O V E this watch. It's not overly loaded with features that the average person doesn't need.
    It has the important functions - Date, time Alarm, stop watch, etc.
    And the back light is bright and beautiful. Plus water resistant. It's all that a person NEEDS to get through the day.
    My only problem is trying to decide which two colors of this watch to get. This black one or the one with the gray bezel.
    Oh....... What the heck...... I'll just by both. Each one to wear for different occasions.

      I just got into buying Casio digital watches and was thinking the same thing about G Shocks having a 10 year battery option. My guess is that this would hurt sales of solar, and they want to grow the G Shock solar and atomic time features.

    I love this watch. Feature packed, tough, cheap, vintage casio good looks. It is the ultimate beater. I have 2 of them, and I daily them. They are also my go-to for travel. If they break, get lost or stolen, oh well. For $50 CAD I'd just buy another one.

These are the first steps into the rabbit hole of collecting watches, especially Casio. Enjoy the journey and don't worry if you find yourself in the darkness of the Rabbit hole for a while, your eyes will adjust. hehee Great video. #Like 705

    A GShock for the masses, built with a tough case and stripped down functions at an affordable price point. For those who don’t want or can’t afford an entry level GShock like the 5600, the dw291h Is a sensible alternative.

    You simply can NOT buy a better watch for the same money.
    I love ALL my Casio watches ( I now have 30 of them) from the F91w to my G Shock watches
    Just buying ONE more and that will be my Casio watch collection complete (One for every day of the Month)
    Not sure which one to buy to finish off my watch collection ... Might wait for a new release that catches my eye.

    Thank you

    • @OFD
      @OFD  3 года назад +3

      This is not in the gshock line. It's going to be less impact resistant. How much, I'm not sure. The gshock line is built with recessed crystals etc, designed to withstand more. That being said, this is a tough watch. I gave this particular one to my uncle, who while older, has been falling and removing large pine trees from his property (fire damaged). He's been running chainsaw multiple days with this watch, no issues.
