Casio W-96H-1B

Who is this watch suitable for?

The W-96H-1B is designed for those who don't want to think about their watch every day, but want it to always be on hand and working. It is appropriate for training, traveling, fishing, or simply at work every day. Water resistance of 50 meters means that rain, washing, or accidental immersion in water is not a threat to it. Electroluminescent backlight ("LIGHT" button on the side panel) allows you to read the time in the dark without any effort.

The display simultaneously shows the time with seconds, day of the week, date, and alarm status. The functions of the stopwatch and alarm signal - with the corresponding indicators "ALM", "SNZ", "SIG" - are controlled by four side buttons: "MODE", "ADJUST" on the left, "LIGHT" and another on the right.

What is it made of and what does it look like?

The case is polymeric, rectangular with rounded corners, sized 44 x 36 mm, weighs only 50 g - this is noticeable when worn all day. The strap is rubber with a textured surface that doesn't slip on the wrist. The glass is acrylic. Everything is in black: the case, the strap, and the branded metal box in which the watch is supplied.

How does the Casio W-96H-1B differ from similar models?

The main practical advantage is a 10-year battery, which the manufacturer declares directly on the case with a red inscription "10 YEAR BATTERY". For a digital watch in this price segment, this is rare. Add water protection up to 50 meters with the inscription "WATER 50M RESIST" on the case, an alarm with snooze function, a stopwatch, and backlight - and you get a set that is usually found in models twice as expensive. The manufacturer's warranty is 24 months.
