  • The intersection of my love for Wonder Woman and watches: the Casio A168WA-1, the watch that Chris Pine wears in Wonder Woman as Steve Trevor. You already know I couldn't resist. In this video I profess my love for this $20 digital watch that will forever have a place on my wrist.

    Nice review, I've worn the A168 for a few years and it really is a classic time piece. It just works so well, as you pointed out, for men and women. Even though it didn't come out in the 80's it really invokes that time period. It's truly everything you could want out of watch. I know some people don't like the text all over the front of the watch but to me it really adds to the charm. People in general, if they're wearing a watch at all, usually are wearing a smartwatch or a G shock. In my humble opinion, these little Casio's are a bit classier than a bulky G shock and I just can't appreciate the blank screens of smartwatches. Celebrities are thankfully giving these charming little watches the credit they deserve, as are you. I really enjoyed your video it was quite charming. Now I'm going to watch the movie. 👍

      Thank you so much for the kind words and for putting time into such a thoughtful comment. Truly agree with everything you just said. As a G-Shock lover myself, they're most definitely more obnoxious than these Casios. As someone who works in tech I often get asked for my opinion on smartwatches when people realize I collect watches, my answer is always the uniqueness of a traditional watch. In my opinion, a smartwatch is more of a "gadget" or tool than a reflection of the wearer, just because they're all kind of uniform even if you get various accessories for them. Hope you enjoyed the movie!!

      @@akaKhanh I really appreciated your view on smartwatches especially since your in the tech market. I've had a watch fetish ever since I was a little boy but I just couldn't find an interest in smartwatches, and it wasn't for a lack of trying. You said it best in that they are really more of a gadget rather than an interesting time piece.

    I ordered this watch 2 days ago. I love your take on this. Excellent review. Yeah, it’s not mechanical, not sapphire, and …yes! You can flex this watch! I like that you got started into the watch rabbit hole with Casios. They’re affordable, comfortable, indestructible, and an incredible bang for the buck. And yes, I have Rolex, Tudor, Hamilton, Christopher Ward, Seiko, Orient, and Casio. My G-Shock square 5610 is my go to watch most of the time.
    All in all, a great vid! Thanks!

It also have good backlight and stainless steel strap. The f91w has loss 6 seconds a month and the bracelet after 10months is broken. But i like the slimmest of f91w and the water resistant has a very excellent performance i can wear it in the bathroom while i'm taking a bath.

    I just got a Casio DBC32 (calculator + data bank). I used to have one when I was a child in the mid 1980s, and in class it kept beeping when I'd press a button, so I could not cheat on math tests. 🤣😋 I did not know how to use it enough to shut the sound off, if it was even possible? I don't know. Marty had a calculator watch on in Back To The Future movie. Check it 9it! ☺️ Anyway, I have the DBC32 today, and now I want a more simple Casio, but I want one that is *made in Japan,* so I'm looking at the *A159WA* model. It has a tiny "JAPAN U" at the bottom of the face, and also "JAPAN DH" stamped on the back, if anyone was interested.
    There is another one that has two tiny (real natural) diamonds on the face. I believe it is the A159WAD model. I might try that one out in the future. I believe that one has JAPAN DH stamped on the back as well.
