I found two model numbers for this watch, the CASIO A168WGG-1BDF & the CASIO A168WGG-1BVT. These have a little higher MSRP price and are getting harder to find. I've really enjoyed the "stealth" "blacked out" "gun metal" look of this watch. I hope you like this full review video of this great little Casio digital watch.

**Important Note**
I really enjoy watches and that's why I started this channel so I could review them regularly but my satisfaction is not found in owning or experiencing watches, no matter how many I may accumulate or how luxurious and expensive they may be . . .
Wise King Solomon said in Ecclesiastes 5:10 "He that loveth silver shall not be satisfied with silver; nor he that loveth abundance with increase: this is also vanity."
The truth is, material possessions of any kind, money, power, etc. never can and never will satisfy our hungering souls. Only knowing, loving, and serving God can truly satisfy.
The only way we can have a real relationship with God, the Creator of the Universe, is through the Lord Jesus Christ, the sinless Son of God.
"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." John 14:6
Through Christ's sacrificial death on the cross, for my sins and your sins, and His resurrection from the dead we can have peace with God (Romans 5:1), forgiveness of sins (Acts 10:43), eternal life (John 3:16), and so much more!
In Christ, we can know true joy now and for all eternity.
"He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life." - 1 John 5:12

Casio is the Toyota of watches
No. The best watch there is.
Really? I’ve heard people say Seiko is the Toyota of watches and Grand Seiko is the Lexus version
@@shaneukken1180well seikos are more expensive than casios in general and both have great quality and reliability. So seiko is a bit expensive toyota.
@@shivanshsaxena2527 Seiko's are not expensive. Casios are just cheap.
@@TheEchelon bro the starting price of Seiko watches in India is 200$ maybe in your country it's different that's why
It’s one of the best in Casio ‘s vintage series wrist watch. Fantastic review. I was gonna get it but the plastic case was a let down. Nevertheless the negative display and backlight are awesome. Casio has a positive display with same gunmetal bracelet but somehow I feel the negative one is more funky. Been a big fan of Casio digital watch since my school days. F91-W was my first Casio. I hope they make this one in Stainless Steel /metal case soon!!
Can’t wait to order this. Such a beautiful, yet simple, time piece.
Thanks for watching!
3:50 This is pretty sturdy plastic, there is a video of a guy running over the cheaper f91 several times with his truck. The glass and display broke but the plastic case actually looked like it hold up rather well when he showed the result.
I actually like these a lot. My daughter has a Casio collection between the A168’s and F91W’s. Nice vid.
Thanks for watching my friend!
Just ordered this one. It will be my everyday watch. ❤
Very cool piece Josh. Casio makes so many great watches. I have several and very happy with all. Thank you for sharing and have a wonderful weekend my friend 👍 🙏👏🙌
Yes! Casio is awesome! Appreciate all you support Felo! Send me an email sometime and show me your collection! My email can be found in my "about" section on my page.
@@TheTownWatch Thank you so much Josh...I'm happy to share my collection with you. Have great weekend and take care 🙏👍
I now have the A168 WEMB - like this but with the mesh bracelet. Instant favourite in my collection. For those interested, the A1000 is all steel but personally I prefer the look and the price of these 168 variants.
What is special about Casio, is this, they're a budget brand but its watches perform 100 times better than their price suggests. Not to mention its level of finish
They are like fine 🍷
Great concise video! I’ve also been somewhat put down by the fact that the casing is made of resin on those Casio watches and even on the Timex equivalents. But with Timex there’s one T80 model that does have a stainless steel case. Comes in two colours: silver and gold. Has a positive display. Retails for some 110$. Have inquired about it at my local Timex agent and waiting for reply. But if it turns out not to be available, that Casio that I noticed just less than an hour ago, while searching for a ‘dressy’ digital watch, is my second choice, and is available where I am. I might even say it’s my first choice despite the resin case because it’s quite the looker.
Although the casing doesn’t have a matte finish like the bracelet. Would have to see how I feel about that with the watch in front of me.
And what I like about it is that the whole screen illuminates. On cheaper versions of those vintage Casios, there’s only one light in a corner of the screen that fades as it travels to the other corner. Not sharp.
That Timex T80 also has the entire screen illuminating.
When I was 10 I would’ve considered this high end luxury. 😂 It’s seriously a cool retro piece with some current influences like the “blackout” negative display and gun metal. Neat piece.
Thanks for watching and COMMENTING my friend!!! 👍😄
I remember you putting up this watch on your community post and I have been looking it up ever since 😂
Yep. When we were 10 the 7 melodies no name watch from HonkKong made you a king of the school ) No to say black market price was equal to monthly engineer salary (welcome to USSR 🙂).
This watch in all steel would be a market killer IMO. There would be no reason to buy something like a prx 35mm quartz
I just order one but i wish a titanium model for this. Full titanium, safir screen and full black. pitch black
They do have a stainless steel version. Its casio vintage a1000 series.
What's the size of this one ? I checked 159 but it was super small eventho my wrist size is very thin.
Creo que es el CASIO que más me ha gustado. Me lo compraré 💪
This watch is scratch less or scratchable one
Love the little watch
Great piece! Thanks for watching
I just bought this today and I love its versatility.
Good performance, very nice model, if its body was metal it would be great. As a child I had a Casio Universal calendar, and since then for nearly 45 years I have only worn Casio models.
Casio is great! Thanks for watching!
The a168 range with a stainless case would literally be the greatest watch of all time
difficult to read in low light w/o backlight on... Negative display is not a good idea but quite nice...
Thanks for watching!
Is a g-shock but i love it. Pluss the bracelet is awesome. Its so light and dont get scratch as I thought. Check the model GWB5600BC
Will do! Thanks for watching!
Really solar powered? Can you tell me the model number?
You are the right
Like, although I prefer a positive display. I like the simplicity of the dial, compared to a much colorful standard model (I have). Considering now the one you have there and swapping the modules with the classic one. Once you buy these little things you keep buying mode models 😀
Very beautiful watch.
Thanks for watching! Glad you like it!
Thank you for review 🙂 To me black style looks better. Isnt it? I was thinking classic 168 till I saw this one. PS Strange, but I do not like my 5600 with black screen at all and changing it for classic look. Could be 5600 has screen much deeper hence worse visibility 😱
Thanks for watching! Totally up to you!
Nah, I would disagree, to me having it made as plastic and affordable is part of its charm. As sort of a middle finger to expensive watches. What i would like to have, however is bigger digits while maintaining the same size case.
Good point! Thanks for watching!

I've been looking to buy one for a while but I really dislike the fact that the band is matte and the face is glossy
I have a couple casinos with resin cases. I was hoping this one would be all SS. it's a pass for me, although the color is nice.
Thanks for watching!
Is this watch as good as g shocks because they can bear any attack does there vintage good if we can throw it doesn't have anything?
It is not as durable as a G-Shock.
can somone recognize the piano music at the end of the video please ?
Would be good to swap out the negative A1000 with this band.
Thanks for watching!
which casio should i get the casio A168WEM-1 or the casio A158WEA-1
Up to you!
wait, the case is plactic?
is the a168 recommended for a person with 7 inch wrists? or it will appear to big? should I consider the a158 instead?
I think it would fit fine. Thanks for watching!
There are two colors in this model one is silver n another one is this gunmetal color soo my skin is fair like yours tho I'm confused which one to buy
Can we see negative display under sunlight or normal display is better under sunlight?!
The negative display is pretty good on this one in my experience. Thanks for watching.
@@TheTownWatch okei thanks bro ✨️
Liệu dây đeo của nó có bị trầy hoặc ngả màu bạc theo thời gian không ?. Tôi nghĩ nó sẽ bị trầy và có các vệt trắng trên dây đeo 😢
Sorry, I don't understand.
I'm a lover of these Casio watches, I have like 4 diff models that switch wearing everyday. But $70 is just crazy. And I do wish they would just make all there plastic metal looking watches in real metal for people like me who wear them everyday. Even tho I have had mine for like 3 years and they still look good....just once the battery dies, your better off spending the $20 to get another one cuz in 5 years I'm sure it won't look good being plastic
Friend of mine, whos not really into watches, buys these in every case version so he can put the blacked out mvmt in them. Why? I haven't a clue. He just digs it. The cheapness of it probably has something to do with it.😅
That's interesting! Especially for someone not into watches! 😅 Thanks for watching friend!
hello where can i buy the same model
thanks
Unfortunately these are hard to find now so I don't have a direct link. Thanks for watching!
Look on casio official website. Just ordered one.
Casio A1000. Steel case, caseback & bracelet
Thanks for watching!
Hello, what is your hand size?
My wrist size is 6.5in. Thanks for watching!
Just ordered one. Love it.
Congrats! Thanks for watching!
how have you found out which size you need? Or did you order "one size"?
@@okanabdul12 there is a clasp on it so you can easily adjust the size
Brother is the case plastic not metal?
The case is plastic. Thanks for watching!
What is the difference between casio a168wa and this watch ……🙂
I'm not sure. Thanks for watching!
Why does this watch have the WR logo on the bottom and other don't?
I don't know! Thanks for watching!
It's just this style. This casio is the A168 model. The A158 models are smaller and have a different style face with different lettering.
The $20 base model has a stainless steel bracelet
Really wanted to like this watch but the bracelet is a deal breaker. I think I hate it. Constantly either falling off my hand or squeezing my arm to the point it’s digging into my arm and ripping arm hair out. If anyone has any strap options for this watch let me know.
Thanks for watching! Sorry to hear that! Mine doesn't pull my hair.
Is this considered a hair pincher ?
Not in my experience.
Thank you sir I just ordered!!
I feel like the plastic case just makes it more durable. Just like the old phones. All plastic and you didn't care if you droped it from your pocket or from 5 meters.. 😂
😅 Thanks for watching!
God tier !
💯😉
These watches need more alarms and countdown timer.
Thanks for watching!
A great watch for work
Thanks for watching!
That's where Timex beats Casio in that department. Timex now has solar powered watch. Thank you!
They do. Casio also makes many solar powered watches but not in this model unfortunately.
@@TheTownWatch I wish they would have solar powered in this model in the future.
Not sure if solar technology is more durable, I never had to replace the battery of my 26 years Casio
I would never choose a timex over a casio
First! 👊
It's look like a black mamba!
Thanks for watching!
Wish the bracelet didn’t pull hair so often 😂
Mine hasn't pulled my hair. Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching.
Много уродских часов у Casio и непонятные цены, вот представленная модель из пластика ,вот что так тяжело корпус стальной сделать??и стекло нормальное??Идиотизм делать корпус пластиковый а браслет зато стальной))))
This is the Nissan Skyline R32 of watches. Unassuming and so full of purpose. Hell, even the color is a similar shade!
