Want to upgrade your F-91W? The open-source Sensor Watch is a board-swap that uses the same display, housing, and wrist-strap but lets you program your own functionality.
Woah, that’s cool.
I love Casio watches; I’ve got about a hundred of them.
The F91W is most notable for being the cheapest, brand name watch you can buy just about anywhere. Even the poorest dirt farmer can afford to own one. And it has all of the features most people need.
That said, it’s not the best option for us westerners. They are very tiny watches, more suited to a child’s wrist than a grown man. A better option is a Casio G-Shock GW-M5610U. It’s solar powered with atomic timekeeping, meaning it never runs out of power and always has the correct time.
Plus, it’s way more durable compared to an F91W. If I could buy a watch for everyone on the planet, it’d be the 5610.
Nice try, but I could buy ten F91Ws for one 5610. Wouldn’t you rather have two watches on each limb AND two watches on your dick than one slightly fancier watch?
The real flex
My wife is in the army. This is the watch that soldiers wear; it has every function you need, and absolutely none that you don’t, and it’s cheap as shit so you can afford it on your crappy military pay. It will not give a flying fuck what kind of abuse you put it through, and in a pinch it will probably stop a bullet.
I lost my Casio watch somewhere in my closet about 3 years ago (I am very lazy).
I still hear it beep every hour.
Maybe today is the day?
place a marker halfway in your closet. every hour stand at the marker and see if the beep is to your left or right. Should be able to find it in <8 attempts.
Dude is lazy and you want him to stand up 8 times in a day?
the only alternative is to piss off your S.O. by asking if they’ve seen it and then they’ll find it instantly
Or your dad, if you’re my kids.
You guys are hilarious! There’s no way I’m going to search for it. That watch is going to find me before I find it.
And if it beeps on the same side no matter which way you’re facing, you might be wearing it.
Casio has a line of ladies watches with floral borders, I wear one as a man and get lots of compliments.
Dammit why do I love this.
Ooh - do they have one in Hawaiian print?
Edit: Searching for “Casio Hawaiian Print” was fun.
The F91w: The Timepiece of Terrorism.
I have the calculator watch one and absolutely love it. The reaction people have when they notice is priceless.
I like to imagine the rev/fwd buttons on this one is for the time travel function.
Reverse Time / Teleport Forward
Seems pretty close to me!
This one looks dope and definitely fancier than mine. I have the ca53w-1
The amount of compliments I also got from the cheapest watch at a grocery store (also Casio)… I’ve seen listings for some really expensive ones with the same shape and general appearance but different colors and maybe features. Does anyone know what’s up with those?
Casio does variants of the same model with all stainless steel cases/bands for a bit more, but it’s usually the japan exclusive colorways that see prices north of $70 or so. Casios are usually pretty affordable!
