What a stroke of genius by Casio! They've created(in my view) 2 instant classics by the simplest of clean up jobs on the face of the A700. I love the original "busy" face, because it completes the retro/vintage look I'm after. Having said that, these 2 new beauties have their own clean, sleek and minimalistic look going on, without losing the retro vibes.They also look dressier, which is cool. Of course, now I want both looks...Oh Casio, what evil geniuses you lot are!😅😂
Wow! these new watches are a minimalist beauty. Classy, unpretentious, modestly sophisticated in a simple, tasteful and eloquent form and function. Perfect.
@@Unlucky1776 I dont mind paying 50$ more for steel case. I hve the a1000, it is so good quality, even inside. the a1000 is a bargain, i wearit much more than my 1000+$ swiss watches. it has the genta style integrated bracelet kind of vibe. Ultra thin and the Beep with the steel is loud
I was pretty much ready to buy the previous model (gray dial, milanese bracelet) but this definitely has me reconsidering. It looks so clean it almost loses the vintage charm in favour of timeless purity.
I ordered this watch today. Already own the A168wem-2bdf which looks amazing for it's price and keeps time with great accuracy. Superb value for money. I have Louis Erard, Roamer, Tissot Bridgeport, PRX and Everytime Swissmatic, Rado and Seiko in my collection but cannot get enough of these Casio vintage watches. Will always be a Casio fan. Thanks for the video!
I'm sold. I've always had the segmented bracelet from the black faced version fitted to my silver one; I think it looks miles better - Casio clearly agrees...
I really like that some of these companies are doing the minimum boxes that are recycled or can be recycled. With casio selling god know how many watches per year this is a good step to recycle
Urgh, I need it now. I have always wanted the A700 but I was holding back because my mind couldn’t decide between the A700 and A168. Now, I need THIS silver A700.
04:56 when you said better than the stock images...I went to go check. I gotta say, definitely agree. They look better in your video than they do on their website (USA)
Of all the "traditional" Casio retro LCDs, I still think the A168 is the best looking. I'm not counting the World Time or the calculator watch, which are pretty different things in their own right. The cool thing however is that Casio and Armitron are still making genuinely cool, well-made, desirable watches way under $50 for those of us collectors who will never own a Tudor or Tag Heuer in this lifetime.
They do look good, but I've just never been a fan of just how toyish those plastic cases feel. I got a steel A1000MA-7EF and slapped it on an A158 bracelet - that's my ultimate digital Casio.
I really like being most interested in collecting inexpensive watches. If I see something I really like, I can order it immediately-no having to grief over spending hundreds or even thousands of dollars. And if I ever drop it, or lose it…I won’t lose sleep over it.
Very pretty, especially the gold, but not for me. Part of my childhood fascination with digital watches in the mid-eighties came from the labels of the buttons. It's not the same without it. Less "futuristic" so to speak.
Still think the a168aw remains unbeatable in the Casio vintage line. I wear mine regularly casually and with suit and tie attire for my Monday to Friday office work. Get a lot of compliments too. I also bought a second one that is boxed and unworn as a backup or if it gets discontinued.
As a b640, A168 and A700 owner and since Casio being my favourite brand i can be biased. but I'm not really into the less text on the bezels. If i want that i buy an MTP watch, which i have already
I own the (old) A700 and indeed I like the minimalist looks of the new one better. Unfortunately my A700 doesn't get any wrist time due to its size. On my 18cm wrist it looks like a children's watch. I wished they made the new one slightly bigger. But hey, a good option for the smaller wristed guys.
I have a difficult relationship with Casio watches. I don't understand why their offer of digital watches with cases made of steel is so modest and a bit expensive compared to their other analog watches from other series, e.g. edifice, where this case material is standard. I will also mention the recently released mdv 10d model, where we literally pay the same for a smaller and worse watch compared to the original mdv 107. This could be amazing watch if case was made from steel.
Love these, but I'll have to pass. I appreciate that you mentioned how small the watch was, because as much as I love the design, I'm 5'7" and 240 lbs, so I feel like this won't look right on my wrist

I LOVE that gold one! It has perfect retro vibes
Wow! these new watches are a minimalist beauty. Classy, unpretentious, modestly sophisticated in a simple, tasteful and eloquent form and function. Perfect.
Fortunately, these are made with resin cases, so I am not at all tempted to purchase them. If they ever release these in steel, I'll be in trouble.
Yea and they'll charge a $100 for them again 💀
Casio be like: hold my cup

I was thinking the same thing
You can get a steel w/ sapphire crystal case from SKXmod for an A-168...
I think it's like $70 or $80.
For me, these are my favorite integrated bracelet style watches. They are so well made, plus, I wouldn't be afraid of using them as sports watches.
You model them very nicely. The silver looks beautiful.

Casio are once again draining my bank account 😂
50 bucks at a time though.
50 $ gets you a drink and dinner in 2024.
Don’t eat out and pick up new Casios nearly guilt free.
Good job!
The silver one is😍
Ordered today :D
@@SimPaparayay happy for you lil buddy 😊
Silver model is AEF, and on Casio website in india same model is listed as ADF.which one to buy?
I bought three A700 because of you, now I'm about to add two more.
For me,the old 1 still looks good and the new 1 design looks clean like the A1000 but both either old or new looks good
I'm with you, Ben - not too boring at all. Clean.
I'm sold. I've always had the segmented bracelet from the black faced version fitted to my silver one; I think it looks miles better - Casio clearly agrees...
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
W mans supporting his clone!
Beautiful retro look that I can remember first hand when I was a kid but really should be made in steel.
Because of a visual impairment, I can not see hand clocks/watches. These are PERFECT
Hand clocks?.😂
Wrist timers
Just admit you can’t tell the time
Thanks for the review! I appreciate the elegant simplicity of Casio digital watches.
I really like that some of these companies are doing the minimum boxes that are recycled or can be recycled. With casio selling god know how many watches per year this is a good step to recycle
Environmental blah blah blaahhhh...
@@OHJAJOHyes fuck the environment, it’s not like we live here or anything
@@HearMeLearn i don't give a flying f*ck buddy, does that makes you cry? 😂
@@OHJAJOH yeah you’re definitely a troll, have a good day
@@HearMeLearn yes i am going to dump some Toxic waste in a river, good times!!
Urgh, I need it now. I have always wanted the A700 but I was holding back because my mind couldn’t decide between the A700 and A168. Now, I need THIS silver A700.
In your same situation, resisting the urge to buy this silver one and just stick with my a168 which still works perfectly great
Pus the PRX to shame, that how a digital reboot looks like, just gorgeous, thanks Ben
Golden is indeed FUN. And yeah silver fits you more.
04:56 when you said better than the stock images...I went to go check. I gotta say, definitely agree. They look better in your video than they do on their website (USA)
Where abouts is that grey custom strap on the old a700 from? Thanks
Oh God these are so nice! I do love my little F91Ws, but this is so much nicer!!!!
Does gold colors fades away sooner than the silver one ???
Cool looking watch , I prefer the gold finish watch , reminds of the one I wore in the late 70s
Casio just getting better and better❤
cant decide if should i get the silver or gold one :(
The watch is perfection, great review thanks a lot.
I think I prefer the original version, love a little pop of colour. Nice if you want a minimal aesthetic though.
Casio is the best watch of the world, and beautiful, and cheap!
Man why don’t they make an official stainless steel version.
They did, not popular. Check the A1000 series
They did, but way too overpriced, their full stainless steel analog choices have better price in this category
My only complaint about the old watches was the text clutter. I'm glad they fixed it!
These look absolutely stunning.
These are both nice 👍 But I prefer the "old" ones : A700WE-1A / A700WG-9A (the one I have).
Great cinematography bro. I hope reality was as much of a beauty ❤️😂
Happy to see a watch that fits my wrist size 🤩🤩😂😂
Great presentation!
Both very nice watches I'm leaning towards the gold one and the light is very good.
Iove the new silver one! I really want to pair it with the strap you had on the original a700 silver variant so may I ask where you got it from?

These new watches seems to lack 24H or AM/PM markings. Is this a new feature?
Love the quality of ur videos :)
They do look good, but I've just never been a fan of just how toyish those plastic cases feel. I got a steel A1000MA-7EF and slapped it on an A158 bracelet - that's my ultimate digital Casio.
very cool. hope they made solar version of these one

Please can let us k ow where you bought the canvas strap for A700
As much as I'd love to see the A700 in steel, I am relieved that my money is safe for now.
I've got one with a negative display and I love it.
When is the AMOLED version being released?
Do Casio use real gold PVD coating for the gold watches?
Yeah, they’re very pretty. My favourite is still the A100WEGG-1A gun metal grey though!
Very pretty, especially the gold, but not for me. Part of my childhood fascination with digital watches in the mid-eighties came from the labels of the buttons. It's not the same without it. Less "futuristic" so to speak.
I wish I'd kept mine that I got for £1 with 5 quid off petrol in the 70s. Because that's what they look like.
Great that watches that aren't hockey puck sized are gaining in popularity again!

Sounds like Ben 😊
Thought the same too, then I clicked the channel description ... yes, it's him :D
hard to post a comment here, but anyways, great video! Helped me expand the collection. cheers!
As a b640, A168 and A700 owner and since Casio being my favourite brand i can be biased. but I'm not really into the less text on the bezels. If i want that i buy an MTP watch, which i have already
Both are 🔥
i have a similar model from speidel with twist o flex bracelet for $25 on sale. all stainless and 34mm

My love this Casio watch ❤❤❤❤❤
I hope their mineral glass doesn’t scratch just from watching at them like acrylic in a158w.
These are absolutely beautiful but like the F91 they are just too small for my 7" wrist.
The old ones looks much better!
Where to buy the canvas strap?
Will be getting the gold one when the price drops
I SHOULD HAVE WAITED
Yep looks great
Is the bracelet still pulling hair?
Leave your wife alone
The lighting position makes it hard to see the finishes well.
For those of us who prefer the decluttered dial look, yes.
they need to make a black one
Are you the bold watch guy? Your voice sounds familiar. Sick watches btw and love your vids(if you that bold guy of course).
Very nice looking, especially in silver. But, $97 US!?
Tissot PRX left the chat

nice, but i would never wear them because im too scared to scratch them.. they get scratches so easily
whats the water resistance?
1000 m
wish they made it bigger
Ben is that you 👀
Satisfied with back light here?
Gold color fading in a week, i baught it gold one, color not durable very bad gold one
Not owned a regular watch for years. Do they make something like this that counts steps and connects to an iPhone?
These are for men
Love these, but I'll have to pass. I appreciate that you mentioned how small the watch was, because as much as I love the design, I'm 5'7" and 240 lbs, so I feel like this won't look right on my wrist
You bought multiple copies of a watch that has the exact same functions?
He is a reviewer.
I already have 24 casio watches. Do i need another one? according to my wife..no. Do i want this in the gold version? Yes.
So basically you have taken what nerdy dorks wore in the 80s and recycled it 40 years later and saying its now cool 😂
Yes indeed boy. Still cool
C'mon Casio make a stainless steel case digital, similar to these ones
Tissot should take some notes 😂
Only one size?
How long does the battery last?
Good question.👏👏👏
for 100years
Is This Watch Full Metalic or not
I think the A168 still looks better, especially the A168WGG.
I'll be back when they start making these in metal
I personally don’t agree. I think the older models have more ‘80 look and vibes. :)
Are you Ben? You kinda sound like him... 👌
Why do you have another channel? 😅
I love them, but the way they’re charging this much for resin makes it a no go for me.
