    Thanks for watching! Be sure to set that resolution to 4K and enjoy HD goodness. I also love comments. Do you have this watch? Are you frustrated by my inability to operate a simple Casio? Let me know below.

      My phone only goes to 1080.
      I had to watch a 20 min video on daylight savings to get my multi and 6 mudmaster back to correct.
      How many watches did Shane put on the chopping block?

      I hate you so much, mate! Coming in here every video bragging about the weather over there in the sunshine. 😂😂
      You may actually be right though! Stuck inside the house with nothing to do but search Amazon for budget Casios.
      Ps. It was 8 degrees yesterday! Spring is coming.

    7:40 those sub dials are extremely useful for 'timeboxing' / timeblocking. The upper right corner indicates minutes, counting up to 10 minutes. The left corner counts in 10 seconds upto a minute. Also, I use the interval timers for 'Pomodoro' by setting interval1 for 25mins focus time and int2 for 5mins break.

      That's a G-shock DW5600BB and it is a great one. Simple with no frills and gets the job done.

    I have the 1300. I got it mostly because the layout looks like my tri-graph from the 90s. I'm not a referee and have never used the timers, but it's readable and sturdy which makes it a perfect beater watch.

    These are great I’ve had both of mine for a long time. The great thing is that these bracelets and resin straps are all interchangeable with the Timex chronograph that we have.

    Thank you for this video ... 01:50 in this video ...I also have the Casio Royale with the metal bracelet ... Here in the UK it cost me £30 GBP from an authorized Casio dealer... So I know it is 100% Genuine.
    It looks awesome for the money it costs. It looks like a far more expensive watch... 100% Agree the backlight is superb.
    I have never seen an AE-1300 WH for sale here in the UK. It is an interesting-looking design... Casio watches are great.. They are my favorite watch manufacturer (Not that you can tell LOL)
    Thank you so much for this video

    That was much more entertaining than if you'd read the manual first 👍 . I'm intrigued by the countdown watch, seeing the time and countdown on the same screen could be very useful.

      Ha ha ha. You get to see how dumb I really am! It's actually fairly simple in the end. Thankfully for the full review I can script and edit out my idiocy. 👍👍

      Solar is awesome. Although hard to charge in a Canadian winter. It took two weeks in the window to charge my full metal G-shock. 😂

      @Half Past Blog Thanks Alton, I have a different version 5600 with negative display and a 5610 with positive display. Is that negative display typical in that you have to get just the right angle to read the dial?

    • @halfpastblog
      @halfpastblog  Рік тому

      @@larrydalton2205 That is definitely the case. It is easy to read under daytime conditions at the right wrist angle. It is the watch I wear to work around the house and doing dirty jobs so I don't mind. The negative display on my full metal square is far easier to read.
