Casio W800H "Greyman": Better than the Casio Royale AE1200??
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 лют 2023
- The Casio W800H "Greyman" is a feature rich surprise at less than $25 to say the least. From the factory, the functions of this model are: stop watch, alarm (date or daily), LED light, hourly signal, and dual time. Although not a multiple time zone watch making the AE1200 Royale famous, the Greyman has hidden within it's program a countdown timer program easily activated by removing the solder on one contact point on the module. This timer can also be a recurring timer that automatically resets and continues to countdown. Teachers, RN CNA and other medical professionals, and law enforcement will find this watch to be a great everyday watch. What is your favorite Casio?

Not enough reviewers actually examine the benefits of a modules functions and features. I also appreciate that it is a true review. So many creators seem to pass off their initial impressions of a watch without actually living with it or testing it at all. Subscribed.
Thank you, my sentiments as well. It's my intention to showcase function and application with the gear I have. Your suggestions/ideas are welcomed!

انني استخدم الساعه منذ اكثر من ٥ اعوام وقبل استخدامي لهذي الساعه كنت ايضا استخدم ساعات كاسيو فلا تستبق الاحداث فخبرتي بساعات كاسيو واستخدامها اكبر من عمرك
I love this watch. It has been my duty watch for almost 2 years. It’s gone through several scraps on duty with me and has never sustained any significant damage.
Perfect duty watch for me.
Great watch...thank you for serving you community! How many years as LEO?
I've worn one of these for over 10 years working offshore on hydraulic machinery in all weather's , all climates. Still wear it daily & today for many extreme sports. The dual time zone was great when travelling overseas too.
I know G-shocks are built for impact...and yet the non-G-Shock watches are extremely durable on their own.
I left mine since the first of December 2022 out in my Garden and it will be there for one year for testing it‘s toughness. The coldest temoerature since then was minus 13 degree celcius ( I live in Germany). No Problem untill now with the Watch. 👍🏻. PS: good Video 😊
Excellent. Let me know how it goes. I've a test coming out very soon on the durability but not to the extent you've set up.
OK. I will let you know. 😊👍🏻
@@teamtrust4394I want to know too
Got one and the biggi for me is the larger display numerals and decent back lighting. I also have the 'royale' and this one is clearer to read.
absolutely.
I love the greyman concept. Great review!
Thank you. Have a great weekend.
This is the only review that really gets this watch and its nature. I liked it thank u
Thank you!
I currently have this watch and I wear it every day. I am engineer and this watch is very easy to read the time and the date, not big, so easier for me to wear it while doing my work checking the pipes and machine, even though my friend mock it looks like school watch, but for me it suits best for my need.
Simple and effective. I actually enjoy the designed layout of the watch and display. If they made this a tough solar...GOLDEN!
@@Realidealgear Unfortunately, the solar battery lasts less than 3 years, it is more expensive, and more difficult to find on the market, and in order not to configure the watch incorrectly, it must be charged periodically in the sun for its correct use and accuracy, so taking that into account, I think the w800h with its simple 10-year battery beats any, that's my opinion.
I like the big screen on this one.
It is that for sure! It is surprising how this watch ranks right up there with other entry level Casio's...and does quite well. Thanks for watching.
Great video, Tim. Very informative! I might have to get my hands on a W800H to conduct a review! Would love to learn more about that 15 minute 'Timer' mod you mentioned!
I highly recommend it! There are a number of how-to videos out there. I tried to use the soldering iron. Simply scraping the solder off was easiest. From that point, the recurring/single use timer is active. Let me know how it goes for your mod.
I bought one the other day and quite like it. I also didnt know its known as the Greyman! That is so cool!
I love it!
I have an AE1000W but I wanted something that was easier to read, so thanks to this review I chose a w800h and I've been wearing ut for a week now. The font size and back light on this one are so much better! I will still use my 1000w when l travel though. At my age I am more interested in functionality rather than just looks.
My third Casio is a GSchock GA2100 Casioak that I wear to play basketball or to the office occasionally.
Great review, Tim! Thanks for taking the time to producing it.
Glad I could help.
The most pragmatic watch out there. Should be standard issue for the everyday work day.
Right on! Have a great weekend.
i got the G-Shock with the camo face and green strap. iv had a digital watch since 1983, but i got a Citizen a year before that for Christmas which started me on the watch nuttery and sneakers. lol. thanks for the vid
Liking the camo!
Citizen is a slippery slope. You start with a Promaster, then perhaps a vintage or two and before you know it you have several haha. Check out the Orca, the Eco Zilla and the new 300m diver! They look so awesome!
I just wanna say I enjoy your Casio watch reviews, it's relaxing
Thanks! Any suggestions for future Casios?
This watch does everything you need. I changed the strap with cheap skmei 1496 strap. Now it looks chunky and more shock style.
Excellent idea. I may steal your idea.
Great review. Must agree an excellent tool for the cost.
Absolutely
Also if you want even bigger digits the Casio W217H-1AV is a great watch for its even larger digits than the 800H, which as I get older becomes even more important.
You're right...I found that one out after I bought the Greyman. I do prefer better water resistance because of my work and hobbies. I think the W217 is an extremely close second to the Greyman (W800).
2 legendary watches right there
Absolutely!
Have a great week.
This watch is a classy little number. I own one too.
It's a simple, effective design.
Wearing mine right now. Will have to keep watching your other videos to see if there is anything better. We're on the same page with regard to legibility, comfort, water resistance etc. I love the 10 year battery life, to me it make solar watches redundant. I had a bunch of chinese knock off fake casios that I used to wear at work when I needed a beater watch, but they didn't have the accuracy of the real thing.
Greyman is the perfect non-g-shock sport watch. Only complaint is that the timer function shouldn’t have to be hacked to use it. It should be active with the other functions. The 10 yr battery makes a touch solar much less important.
For me, I have a couple Casios with over 10 yrs and for that reason, I’ll be happy not to change anything. The square and Triple Sensor Protrek PRW6600 are intended to be zero maintenance. I don’t ever want to think about battery life.
The rest of my Casios aren’t that important so batteries are fine. I’ll probably cycle through the non tough solar Casios before they die anyway.
Thanks for sharing and watching! Take care.
It is a great watch! I have one too, and it is my second favorite, and only because my favorite is one I've had for more than 15 years, and has emotional value. If I'm being neutral it has to be my best. I haven't yet done the timer mod, but plan on doing so soon!
I agree with the emotional value long term ownership has with Casios. The Triple Sensor Pathfinder series is that for me, I won't let it go. Have a great week!
Love this watch. Imo the best beater digital for the money. I ended up spending $20 more on a dw5600 for the EL and the gshock street cred. I still want a w800 though.
Both are excellent options. I have a 5610u and enjoy it. I don’t think I get more use or protection with a G-Shock. Greyman is a great low cost option.
Great watch
Agreed
Check out the negative display in that watch awesome
I think you're on to something...looks very tempting.
I own both of them, and they are awesome.
Agreed.
My 4 favo: W800, W-736H-1avef, AE-1500WH-5AVEF and the all time classic 5610U
I really like your list.
Try swapping straps with your Casio Royale. I think it makes the watch look 10x better and it's one of the more comfortable straps.
Excellent idea!
You can hack 5 alarms too in addition to the timer, but only the first one will have an indicator if its on or off. A little tricky to use but once you get the hang of it it's alright. I personally use them as specific date reminders.
Good to know!! I don’t understand why Casio doesn’t give this watch all the modes and make it easy on us Casio nerds. Thanks for sharing the great info.
@@Realidealgear because these features aren't fully implemented on the W800h. You have no indicator if the 4 alarms/auto-repeat function are on/off. There is the f201 which shares the same module and has them enabled /w indicators properly working. Basically by soldering the PCV you're fooling the watch that it's a f201. Casio saves money by creating the same boards.
What I don't understand is why not implement all these features in the W800 properly though.
Hey, thank you! The Casio W800 Series are the best combination of the Casio Heritage. I don‘t understand wile the FW 91 or other Models so hyped. Greetings from Germany!!
Yes, exactly...Love the Greyman (W800). It's great to make your acquaintance and keep the feedback flowing my way. Take care, frohe weihnachten!
I love the style of lettering on this watch, very legible.
I've never seen it below €30.- here in the Netherlands, are watches that cheap in the US or is that excl. taxes?
It's that cheap. Where I live there is no tax collected at the moment of sale.
It is durability good for f91w
The Greyman (W800) is superior to the F91W in every way except history…the F91W has a long history and legendary status. That’s the ONLY thing the F91W has over the Greyman (W800H).
Gracias por tu vídeo 👍🇨🇴🕓🇪🇸👌
Gracias por ver. Ten un excelente fin de semana.
Good video! I am enjoying your content. Will the module from the W800H fit into, and function properly, in the AE1200?
In one fell swoop, you showed the limits of my modding capacity! Now, I'm going to try it in the near future and I'll let you know if it does.
Great review 💫
Thank you! Take care.
It's a tough watch but the rubber strap on mine failed after two years.
The strap is definitely not as robust (thick) as a G-Shock.
Do you prefer this over your 5610 square? Will you be doing a review on the 5610?
Great format.
I think the 5610u has an advantage in with g-shock design (although I don't think G-Shock vastly superior for most applications/uses by most people), solar charging of the battery, and atomic timekeeping for continued accuracy. I did do a review, check around 1:50 for a link button on this (A800H Video) review for the Square and 3:50 for the Royale. Thanks for watching!
W800H < DW5610U < GW5000U
I have all 3, and can say without doubt or prejudice that I will keep the 800 & 5610 for the sake of the collection but will 💯 *always* reach for the 5000U when I want to wear a digital. It's the undisputed 👑
With snooze alarm, dual time, 10 year battery and 100m water resistant it is a great travelling watch, i think.
So many Casios! The Greyman is a powerhouse, not perfect. Then again that’s why there are so many Casios.
just why to buy this W800H and than hak removing weld near cpu corner to get timer, and weld the third bridge to get 5 alarms and than change the strap with spare of AE1000W or W218H
If you at same price can have all the functions and more in a better package getting Phys STR300?
Thanks for watching.
My only problem with this watch is the YEAR prominently displayed right on the front. I don't need to be reminded of the year. Everything else is great.. Amazing device for the money.
Agreed. Thanks for watching.
If you have a stock Casio Duro band sitting around you can notch it to replace the stock W800H strap…. When it wears out.
Excellent idea, thank you.
looks great on camera, but when i try it in my hand look so thick almost like a gshock, im stick with A168 insted
Thanks for sharing
Excellent!
Many thanks!
this watch is the one that opened the Casio rabbit hole for me. only complaint is it's too thick for my skinny wrist
I was a pleasant surprise to me...I thought the Square was "it" until I did the review. Now, the Greyman is "it."
Mine has a plastic crystal. Maybe there’s a mineral crystal version in USA?
You're right, it's acrylic not mineral.
I have two W800H watches and I did the timer hack on both of them. On both of them, while the timer function does work, occasionally when you press and hold the “adjust” button, the watch resets itself. It does that on both watches. No idea what I did wrong. I Tripple checked e everything on both of them ( making sure the battery was seated properly, all the boards were put back in correctly etc etc ) and they both still do it. It’s very annoying having to reset the watch almost all the time when trying to reset a timer, stopwatch, or trying to set an alarm.
Anyone else’s W800 do this as well after you did the timer mod ? If so - how did you fix it ?
At this point, it hasn't happened with my timer hack. Sorry to hear that.
Mine doesn’t have any mods, but it resets itself sometimes anyway!
It’s from 2014.
I replaced the battery for the first time last November and so far, so good.
It’s a very annoying habit, i think.
@@andriesquast2028 I thought it was the battery as well ( which is odd since these are supposed to be 10 year battery watches and both of these watches are way newer then 10 years old ) - but I went ahead and bought a new battery for it anyway. Guess what ? Same issue. Still resets itself after pressing and holding the “adjust” button. Oh well.

Yes this watch has had the modification to the timer. Now the watch is a daily user! Thanks for sharing.
Nice video
Thanks
You can Alarm hack, as well, to gain access to multi (5) alarms.
Do share.
I have olive green W800H and AE1200. Much easier to read day/date on W800H. Text on AE1200 is poor, and in shadow of plastic. I like year display on W800H. Makes it a complete scientific instrument.
Agreed. I wanted an olive green model but settled for the typical black version. After this Greyman gets beat up, I'll get a green Greyman for sure. Agreed on the Royale. Its a cult classic but......redundancy isn't my thing when it comes to alarms and time zones....larger number and better readability of date, as you mentioned, trumps an analog circle and map found on the Royale.
Polywatch might help with the crystal scratches.
I have a some on hand for this and other Casios!
I was lucky with mine, it's only 1 sec off per month.
Nice! I’m back into my seasonal work and the Greyman has returned!
it,s not mineral glass,It,s resin!
You’re absolutely right.
Knowing it's a casio, the depth at it fail will far exceed 100 meters.
So true. Thanks for watching.
If you had to cuff someone up, strap two Casios together and they'll never break out
Nice!
1200 is way better by many miles
Thank you for watching. IMHO, I'm leaning towards the Greyman. Why? ...Royale: Having multiple time zones and multiple alarms, neither of which I've regularly used more than one...is repetitively redundant. I've only used on of each at a time. Greyman: A countdown timer that automatically resets, alarm set to: one time use, daily or on specific date, larger numbers displaying the time...these are unique features only found on the Greyman. I'm leaning toward Greyman. I appreciate your time and comment.
@@Realidealgear I do agree with 800 being a great greyman. The 1200 is more of a Gentlemans watch, all be it not a fully utilised one
It's just so charmingly ugly, like a French bulldog. Perfectly utilitarian and such intelligent design. I wish it had a proper illuminator instead od one led
I agree, two LED's would resolve that issue.
@@Realidealgear I think that illuminator system all g shocks have is not 2xled but illuminated screed from the back which is excellent. Even without light due to big screen w800 is very readable so no back light is not a big problem
Great watch! But they are morally outdated. They are already losing out to new models with similar characteristics, such as the budget ws1400h...
Very true. The W800 could use an update like tough solar and timer.
Tim who?
Yep.
Less alarms, no GMT, no countdown timer, no analog display, no map, no mineral glass, less attractive, same price, no thanks!
True on the alarms and attractive is personal preference. I would add the lighting is negligibly better. Below is my opinion not as organized in the video.
Not true with dual time (aka GMT). Greyman has dual time or second time zone. The map is akin to having the year on a watch...unnecessary and unusably small when it applies to the zones in the Pacific.
While there are multiple alarms and time zones...I've rarely used more than one. Analog display is ineffectively small. Greyman digital display is larger (numbers and day/date) making the day/date is more legible. To be fair, the year on the Greyman is pointless...much like multiple alarms and more than one dual time zone.
Neither have mineral glass.... "Resign Glass" on both (per Casio website). I don't use more than one alarm at a time and with the hack, A800H has a recurring or repeating countdown timer that the Royale doesn't have. Also, the countdown timer can be set to a specific date...therefore technically multiple alarms (2) set by date.
Royale has less legible display, overkill on alarms and time zones. Royale is a fine watch. Greyman has recurring countdown timer and more legible display with an alarm that can be set by day/date. Royale doesn't have these useable features. Repeating functions unlikely to be utilized regularly is like using four shoelaces on one shoe and then claiming a better value because there are four. Greyman is a better usable value.
It has countdown timer and 5 alarms
Among the many Casios I have in my collection, I have both models plus negative display grey man which I call my David goggins watch ( putting that one on makes me feel like I have to carry the boats that day) … but grey man more practical than royale in real life application I’ve found. Really can’t beat that legibility, which no matter how many functions a tool watch has, legibility is first and foremost key. 👍
Who are you?
Exactly.
Gun porn? No thanks.
I do appreciate your time. Take care.
😂😂😂 I love it !!! 💪🏽
Thanks!
