This is a reliable and accurate movement that requires very little maintenance to stay running for years. Those who simply need an understated reliable timepiece love it. It’s also popular among the techy set, the hip and ironic crowd, and collectors with high-end tastes who appreciate a watch with heritage and lore, price aside. The A168WA is legible in the darkest situations thanks to its thin, lightweight, and flexible Electro Luminescent panels. EL panels use minimal power consumption (one of the reasons that the battery lasts so long) and are so durable, they work even after being punctured.

The strap is made of a silver metal and fastens with a clip over style clasp. These are quite popular as they’re very easy to adjust the size of. It measures about 18mm wide going well with the casing sizes.

Since this was anything but a typical TBWS formatted review, I’m going to make my assessment very simple: After a “prime” amount of time the Casio A168WA arrived. I unboxed it and then stared at it. It was so much different than my many mechanical tool watches. My mind raced for nostalgia as I struggled for a connection. I needed help. The resin housing is the ideal everyday companion. It is durable, lightweight and relatively insensitive to cold, heat or other external influences.

The daily alarm reminds you of events that recur every day, by emitting an audible signal at the set time. The thinner links do make it more flexible and adjustable. Though I should mention that some men have complained about hair pulling.I love the A168WA’s sleek and retro digital design. Vintage fans and the nostalgic are its main audience, but it has plenty of crossover appeal. Men with small wrists who are looking for an affordable digital watch love it. I couldn’t help but feel like I was missing out on some form of nostalgia the watch was designed to induce in Gen Xers, or hipster irony that might appeal to Millennials. Maybe I’m just too much of a pragmatist. But ultimately I thought the Casio was a low frills, neutral looking watch that could be worn with almost anything, anytime. If only I was so inclined!” However, I think the fact that people have this expectation is a testament to its efficient design and reliability.
