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!😅😂
@@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.
Wow! these new watches are a minimalist beauty. Classy, unpretentious, modestly sophisticated in a simple, tasteful and eloquent form and function. Perfect.
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)
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.
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.
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 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.
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.
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.
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

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.
I LOVE that gold one! It has perfect retro vibes

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.

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
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
You model them very nicely. The silver looks beautiful.
Beautiful retro look that I can remember first hand when I was a kid but really should be made in steel.
I think I prefer the original version, love a little pop of colour. Nice if you want a minimal aesthetic though.

In your same situation, resisting the urge to buy this silver one and just stick with my a168 which still works perfectly great
I bought three A700 because of you, now I'm about to add two more.
These are both nice 👍 But I prefer the "old" ones : A700WE-1A / A700WG-9A (the one I have).
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?
My only complaint about the old watches was the text clutter. I'm glad they fixed it!

Cool looking watch , I prefer the gold finish watch , reminds of the one I wore in the late 70s
Does gold colors fades away sooner than the silver one ???
I'm with you, Ben - not too boring at all. Clean.
Thanks for the review! I appreciate the elegant simplicity of Casio digital watches.
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
Oh God these are so nice! I do love my little F91Ws, but this is so much nicer!!!!
Pus the PRX to shame, that how a digital reboot looks like, just gorgeous, thanks Ben
Casio is the best watch of the world, and beautiful, and cheap!
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.
cant decide if should i get the silver or gold one :(
Where abouts is that grey custom strap on the old a700 from? Thanks
Great cinematography bro. I hope reality was as much of a beauty ❤️😂
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.
These new watches seems to lack 24H or AM/PM markings. Is this a new feature?
As much as I'd love to see the A700 in steel, I am relieved that my money is safe for now.
Casio just getting better and better❤
The watch is perfection, great review thanks a lot.
Both very nice watches I'm leaning towards the gold one and the light is very good.
Yeah, they’re very pretty. My favourite is still the A100WEGG-1A gun metal grey though!
These look absolutely stunning.
Happy to see a watch that fits my wrist size 🤩🤩😂😂
Great presentation!
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.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
W mans supporting his clone!
very cool. hope they made solar version of these one
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
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?
Great that watches that aren't hockey puck sized are gaining in popularity again!
Love the quality of ur videos :)
The old ones looks much better!
hard to post a comment here, but anyways, great video! Helped me expand the collection. cheers!

When is the AMOLED version being released?
Please can let us k ow where you bought the canvas strap for A700
I hope their mineral glass doesn’t scratch just from watching at them like acrylic in a158w.
I've got one with a negative display and I love it.
For those of us who prefer the decluttered dial look, yes.
Tissot PRX left the chat
Do Casio use real gold PVD coating for the gold watches?
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.
Gold color fading in a week, i baught it gold one, color not durable very bad gold 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).
These are absolutely beautiful but like the F91 they are just too small for my 7" wrist.
Where to buy the canvas strap?
they need to make a black one
I SHOULD HAVE WAITED
Sounds like Ben 😊
Thought the same too, then I clicked the channel description ... yes, it's him :D
Yep looks great
The lighting position makes it hard to see the finishes well.
Will be getting the gold one when the price drops
Is This Watch Full Metalic or not
My love this Casio watch ❤❤❤❤❤
i have a similar model from speidel with twist o flex bracelet for $25 on sale. all stainless and 34mm
Both are 🔥
Is the bracelet still pulling hair?
Leave your wife alone
Ben is that you 👀
Satisfied with back light here?
nice, but i would never wear them because im too scared to scratch them.. they get scratches so easily

I personally don’t agree. I think the older models have more ‘80 look and vibes. :)
wish they made it bigger
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.
Very nice looking, especially in silver. But, $97 US!?
I think the A168 still looks better, especially the A168WGG.
C'mon Casio make a stainless steel case digital, similar to these ones
You bought multiple copies of a watch that has the exact same functions?
He is a reviewer.
I'll be back when they start making these in metal
whats the water resistance?
1000 m
tired of buying casio's plastic watches. make the the cases steel, the face glass, and give them all countdown timer.
For the love of god. Tissot PRX 35MM. ITS PERFECT
Much better than PRX digital
Only one size?
I have two words for you,
Hand Cream
Definitely a Nerd Watch :)
I love them, but the way they’re charging this much for resin makes it a no go for me.
Tissot should take some notes 😂
I like the new ones, but for me: no more battery for me- solar is ok.
