    Sold! Yep, im getting one of these. I agree the black and yellow colour is the best option, looks great on that mustard nato. I find notched corner straps (canvas or leather)best for swapping out casio straps. They bring it out from 18mm to the outside of the lugs which gives it a wider look. Another great video mate, you're knocking them out the park at the moment!! 👍

    I just bought a replacement band for this watch today, I've been wearing it since 2020, literally everywhere from work, camping, parties, and around the house. Mine is still going strong although scuffed up the only issue was the strap eventually ripped so with the new strap im hoping to keep this thing until the battery gives out! Great Video

    Agreed! I have the Ae-1300wh-1a2vef with the mauve writing. I think it's the most understated one. The only Casio I own. Note that the color of the writing is a lot more subdued in real life than it might appear on stock pictures. The yellow one was my second choice.

    I strongly suggest to keep the original protective plastic film as an approximate template.
    Purchase a screen protector film (example Palm) for phone screens etc.
    Then custom cut to match the watch face.
    I make this procedure to all my watch Casio collection, and this added protection is time and money very well spent.
    Awesome video presentation Top Tier Ticker!

    Nice video. I honestly still prefer the ae1200 because of the dual time zone display (shame it can't display am and pm in the analog digital clock), the map (which I find really useful) and the 5 alarms that really come in handy. I don't feel like a geek wearing it on a nato strap.
    Still the ae1300 is a really good watch, so it's understandable prefering it.

    In my eyes, the AE1200 remains king when it comes to general practicality. But the AE1300 is perfect for exercise routines, cooking and various household chores.
    Both watches are excellent in fulfilling their respective roles and are unbelievably affordable. If you like one of them, then there's no real reason not to own both.

    • @ebob4177
      @ebob4177 8 месяцев назад

      I have one. It has only one alarm, only one timer, but with auto restart, and the stopwatch features a target time function and auto start. Personally I think it looks amazing, and I wear it every day. It certainly looks much more elegant than the Casio Royale. The resin parts look better too. The strap has a designed dent that makes it rather uncomfortable though. It presses against the skin. Overall however, I'm glad I bought it.

    • @ebob4177
      @ebob4177 8 месяцев назад

    It's not bad by any means, but the "subdials" seem solely aesthetic... The AE-1200 does have the second time zone right there on the display, which adds something actually useful instead of taking up space for the sake of taking up space.

    • @TopTierTicker
      @TopTierTicker  Год назад +1

      Yes they are completely aesthetic. I agree that the second time zone is more purposeful. But for me, the aesthetic is what makes this watch better.
      After all, the top left subdial on the Royale is hard to read at a glance.
      I love both watches, I think though that the Ae1300 just edges it for me

      I had both watches for a while. I got rid of the 1300 as it largely duplicated the same world time functions and I didn't use the stop watch functions as for what its built for. Again I just never wore it. The local time dial was invaluable for me as I was constanly working with clients across europe and on the west coast (I'm in the EST time zone). I will probably get tghe SKX mod for the 1200 for the steel case and saphire crystal as it's my goto watch for work.

    @jackominty3633 5 месяцев назад

    All these straps are hideous. SKXMOD does a fabulous yellow rubber strap especially for this Casio Series for $50, shipped. That on it's own is a massive upgrade. But, you can swap the resin case for a metal one, with sapphire crystal for another 99$. Add yellow painted lettering + Titanium case-back for a further $50. Yes, you've transformed your $30 watch into a $230 watch, but it will be better than any $500 watch you can buy, IMHO.

  • @fpostolache

    I don't like it and it never beats the Royale unless you are a refree:
    -chrono acts unexpected
    -timer starts with 10 mins
    -interval time increments in 5 seconds.
    Royale and 800 kick a** !
    If you are a refree, not most of us are, worth the buck.
    If not, I mentioned 2 options.
    Btw, I own the 3 of them and I know what I'm talking about.
