Hehe. I was just reminiscing with one of my older brothers about it the other day. I'm liking my black version but it is tricky to read. I think I'll add the silver too. Thanks Kevin.😁👍
Is the black gun metal color of the A100WEGG clearly different from silver of the A100WE-1A? Or it's not really much different? I wanna make a prop replica of Alien watch, and if attaching these two Casios with orange flame a subtle difference of color does stand out?
I actually came across someone that had made the orange strap and was selling them at one point when I was researching for this video. I don't believe they sell them anymore but that would be a cool project.
Had a laugh with your stories. Might have stabbed my brothers' hands (with a pen) too, lol. So many Casios on the to buy list. Might have to buy the gold one as I've never had a gold digital. Thanks for all your content!
@@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces Thanks I figured something like that,I guess when it comes time to change battery you gotta be a little careful not scratch it up. Thanks for the tip
@@kenlivingston3111 This guy shows you how to take it off just skip to 8:44 ua-cam.com/video/CztJnq9e76s/v-deo.html The video is in spanish but the demonstration is great
I’m going into the military soon and I’m a fan of Alien, so I thought it’d be cool to get this one if it had 24hr time. I guess I’ll just have to stick with the classic f91w, it’s much cheaper anyways. Thanks for this comment.
I think it's great that Casio is releasing things like this for collectors. And while they're cool because of the retro factor, any current Casio is a better watch with more features...and costs less too.
I'm liking these a whole lot but it's definitely a little light on functions compared to watches like the World time and others that are even more affordable. Thanks.
NO NO NO NO NO NO !!!!!! Took me years to forget loosing my precious coins just because a BLOODY button "didn't get pushed" (my @ss, i pushed it alright!). IF (i say if....) i just sense something like this happening again, i would take this watch off my wrist and "push" it down the floor till it goes "BEEEPH#$%^^&*(*^^*(@@#@$ "!!!!!!! And dead flat !!!!!! [good gosh mate, you woke up a child in me... 🤪🤣🤣🤣] Be well Bob, but that kid is gone, lost in time, so are the memories. Cheers mate, enjoy (the childhood flashback 😜)
Awesome looking watch, but overpriced. Why pay as much as a G-Shock for this when you can get a beautiful and more versatile AW168 for 25 bucks any day of the week? We have to draw a line in the sand with Casio and all of their backcatalogue gouging aimed at trendy millennials.
Ugly as sin in the flesh! I've had dozens of Casio's over the years, & this is a Christmas cracker SKMEI quality wise. Bring back the Marlin digitals. Now they make a lot of sense. But I can't see the appeal to anyone other than a ten year old. Made in China. I'm sure SKMEI will come up with a $10 lookalike. Which is all this is worth!!! 😡😡😡👎👎👎
Awesome watches, love the continued retro vibe Casio is rocking lately!
Me too. There's some great one's to be had. Thanks Tom!
I have the gold one. I really love it and for me I think the buttons in the front give it character
The gold does look really sharp. Thanks for checking out the video!
I love the black version one it looks 🆒
I like that one too. Thanks!
Your review helps me to decide which color I should go. I will buy black one. Thank you.
Awesome! The black one is my favorite too.
Great watches great review as always. Thanks Bob.
Thank you kindly Ian!
My silver one came yesterday. Love it.
Awesome! It's a really cool watch. Congrats!
That's seriously cool, wasn't looking for another casio but I think I might just have found my next one. Thanks for sharing
Wes - go vintage ! There is some super fun to be had with old Casio digital models from 80s and 90s
@@IlluminatingWatches very true mate, no harm in getting one from each though
They're a lot of fun. Thanks Wes.
I like all three. I might pick up the silver. Thanks for reviewing. 👍
Thanks man. Definitely worthwhile if you're thinking about picking one up 👍
I miss so much the anlog only lcd display, they were very cool.
The silver with positive display looks really good. I loved your trip back to the Alien movie scenes. 👍🏻🎯😷🇨🇦
Hehe. I was just reminiscing with one of my older brothers about it the other day.
I'm liking my black version but it is tricky to read. I think I'll add the silver too. Thanks Kevin.😁👍
The black one is Alien, the Gold C-3PO & the Silver is R2D2😅
Perfect nicknames for them 😁👍
They do look great. Would have loved to get an original , but going to be tricky now (already was to be fair!). More digital content please :)
I see 2 on Ebay but I bet this will drive up prices if it hasn't already. Thanks and definitely more digitals coming soon.
These are definitely cool pieces 🔥😍
Thanks Omar 👍

Side by side it's quite a bit darker. Fair amount of contrast between the two.
I got the black one ., it’s well cool and great value
Nice. Yes I completely agree. Enjoy yours👍
I want to get the gold one but my wrist is thinner, where would you advise I take it if I need to take out some links?
Hi there. Not sure where you're located but if you search watch repair in your area you should be able to find someone.
Is it possible to take the bracelet off and put on a leather strap? My friend has an old seiko, big similar to casio ae-1200. looks rad!
There's not a whole lot of clearance between the springbar and the case but as long as the leather isn't to thick you should be able to pull it off.
@@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces yeap, I bought a Casio 1200 today, exactly like you said - couldnt put a nato strap but a normal strap fit nicely!
Are we able to change the strap to leather ones ?
I haven't tried but I think you should be able to fit a leather strap.
Id like to take the braclet from the pacman model and put it on the silver one 🙈
Thanks for the video
So what are the chances of re-releasing the watch from Alien? Or am I going to have to buy 2 and make my own?
I actually came across someone that had made the orange strap and was selling them at one point when I was researching for this video.
I don't believe they sell them anymore but that would be a cool project.
B-Roll for days 👏
Thanks Miguel 😁🙏
Thanks! Will buy one yey!
Awesome. They're really fun watches. Thanks!
More than those three models now
if they'd make these at the same level as the metal G's, I'd have at least a few.
I’m confused. Is there a calendar function or no?
It does have a calendar. Made this video awhile back but I might have forgotten to mention it.
Had a laugh with your stories. Might have stabbed my brothers' hands (with a pen) too, lol.
So many Casios on the to buy list. Might have to buy the gold one as I've never had a gold digital. Thanks for all your content!
Lol! Yeah things got a little dangerous there after that movie for awhile :)
The gold is really cool. Thanks Marcelo.
To most people, it’s a normal vintage digital watch. To alien fans, it’s the Ripley watch. Either way it’s awesome.
Yep. I totally agree.
@@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces
It took 3 weeks to get here but I just received my silver one today, love it!
@@phoephoe111 Nice. Congrats on getting one.
I think a milanese bracelet looks good in this watch
i tried but i couldnt do it
I picked up the silver one,did you notice that there is no screws on the back cover🤔
When you need to replace the battery how does the back come off🤔
I believe it's a snap caseback. Looks like there's a spot near the lugs where you can fit a small screwdriver to pry open the caseback.

Indecently... the F100 was discontinued the same year the movie came out.
These new "old" Casios look like a lot of fun. Very cool. I will surely get one, maybe for Christmas 😄 Great video as always, Bob!
Hehe. I'd be ok with finding one under the tree 😁👍
Just got mine. No 24hr function! Cant believe it
I bought two to replicate the Ripley watch from Alien and planned to have one 12 hour and the other 24. Pretty rubbish that it doesn’t do this.
I’m going into the military soon and I’m a fan of Alien, so I thought it’d be cool to get this one if it had 24hr time. I guess I’ll just have to stick with the classic f91w, it’s much cheaper anyways. Thanks for this comment.
Cool watch. 👍
Thanks Alton 👍👍
Dig these watches but I swim a lot so no good for me.
Weird that stores describe them as women's watches while they look pretty unisex...hmm
I think it's great that Casio is releasing things like this for collectors. And while they're cool because of the retro factor, any current Casio is a better watch with more features...and costs less too.
I'm liking these a whole lot but it's definitely a little light on functions compared to watches like the World time and others that are even more affordable. Thanks.
Make it in metal and 20% bigger.
F-91WG-9 Forever
Watch was released in 1977

Just got one of these and it feels very cheap,thinking about returning it lol
Picked one up, new for $45. Imo, worth it at the ~$50 price point. MSRP is a tad higher than I'd pay.
These are better suited for women, they're far too small on the wrist to be a man's watch.
not every man has working peasant wrists like yours
