Control: six buttons for each function

Six side buttons are located on the case - this is not an excess, but convenience: LIGHT, MODE, START, ADJUST are distributed so you can switch between modes without diving into the menu. A vertical scale with segments on the display visually shows the current mode status. Large digits are readable at a glance even in bright sunlight, and the electroluminescent backlight solves the visibility issue at night.

Five alarms and a 10-year battery: what sets the AE-1500 apart from its predecessors

Most affordable Casio digital watches have one or two alarms. The AE-1500-WH-8AVEF provides five independent alarms with snooze function - this is a fundamental difference for those who plan workouts, take medications or simply live on a tight schedule. A 10-year battery means you won't have to think about replacing the power cell for years. All this in a case that withstands immersion to 100 meters and weighs less than an average smartphone.
