Casio Men's WS210H-1AVCF Tough Solar-Powered Tide and Moon Digital Sport Wa,tch

For the price, I think this is one of the best watches Casio makes. Here's why:The watch looks better than the pictures you see here. The blue highlighting on the case is darker and more subtle. The black part of the case has tiny embedded metal flakes and a luster that makes it look more like ion-plated metal than plastic. The backlight lights up the entire face with a soft orange light that has great contrast and won't ruin your night vision. The case measures 43 mm, but the cutouts for the pushers, and the bezel styling, make it look smaller. It doesn't have the bulky, overwhelming look of the G-Shocks and the low weight means it rides lightly on your wrist.The tide function is improved compared to older Casio tide watches. Older models required you to enter the "lunitidal interval" for your location if you want an accurate tide readout. This watch only needs the time of the first high tide of the day, then it calculates the lunitidal interval and stores it internally for all subsequent calculations- it's a one-time setup. Also, unlike older Casios, this watch displays the relative height of the tide, indicating higher tides near the new and full moons. Note that the tidal model used by this watch is fairly simple and its accuracy depends on how complex the tides are at your location. It is more accurate for the east coast of the US, and less accurate for some locations on the west and gulf coasts. Check the tide graphs on tidesonline.noaa.gov and compare them to what the watch is telling you before relying on it.Other features I like are: a stopwatch that measures a full 24 hours, dual time display that shows foreign and home city simultaneously, five alarms (a little louder than usual), and a 24 hour countdown timer. The solar charging function easily keeps the battery full, and avoids the expense of battery changes, and breaking the watertight integrity of the case to perform those changes.Overall, I think this is a great value in a watch. It's hard to believe how much functionality you get for the price.

I own probably 3 dozen watches, from China, Russia, Poland, and of course several Swiss, ranging from $20 to $1,000. Which watch do I wear more than any other? This $30 Casio. The value is incredible. It displays 2 time zones, which is perfect for traveling. It is light, solar powered, and mine has no scratches after 5 years and it's been all around the world, on African safaris and hikes up Asian mountains (the resin band just broke and it looks like a replacement is around $10). While I have been reluctant to test the waterproof seals on such a low priced watch, some reviewers report successfully taking it snorkeling.For travel it's great. I don't want to bring expensive watches and risk them getting damaged or stolen, and the multiple time zone feature is awesome. This is one of the only quartz watches in my collection with the rest being mechanical, but really it has every feature you could want, aside from satellite time synch, which is not needed as I've only needed to reset the time on this once since purchase.I kind of want to try some more Casio watches but really this one does it all, so why pay more? I don't really use the alarm function but it has alarms, timers, tide, moonphase. Wow! Best bang for the buck you will ever find with wristwatches. This is a great watch even if you are not a watch guy.

This watch is very light and comfortable to wear. Its size is perfect and is not too thick like the G-shock series. I have had it a couple of days and the battery meter has always been to high. I live in a tropical country where there is always sunlight.I use this watch when I snorkel/freedive and it works great. I chose the Tough Solar as there is no need for a battery replacement which causes the seals to leak after opening the back and reseating.Setting the Tide was a bit tricky as my city was not on the list. I chose Santiago, Chile which has a code of (SCL) and is GMT-4 which is mytime zone. I don't have DST so I turned this off. I checked on the internet for tide tables for my country and I entered the next high tide in the settings. Voila the tide and moon information is quite accurate and very handy.Update: I have had this watch for more than 2 years and its still going strong. I am in the sea at least once a week and this watch takes a good beating. Sometimes the currents push me against hard rocks and the watch takes a good hit. It works really good.The manual however is written in such a tiny font that it is difficult to read. I went to the Casio site and downloaded the pdf manual. I can only read it on the computer because when you print it it comes out really tiny. If you increase the magnification of the pages, it prints with parts missing.I am very happy as I use this Casio Tough Solar as an inexpensive diving watch. It has loads of functions which I am yet to read up on and is built pretty solid and is quite good looking. This watch might last 20 years for all I know, the only weak-point would be the rubber seal under water pressure. Time will tell. I had one casio that lasted 10 years.Update 28-Feb-2016: I have had this watch for over 4 years and it is still going strong. I go out into the sea at least once a week.Update 29-Jul-2017: After 6 years, the plastic hole in in the watch body where the band attaches has widened out and broke. I will try to fix by drilling with a fine drill and using a longer pin or stainless steel wire.Update 19 Jun 2019: Its almost 8 years and the watch works just like brand new. I have scuba dived with it to 50 ft and the seal is all intact. The only weakness is that the plastic holes where the watchband pins are are anchored has broken off for two of the 4 holes. The watch repair guy moulded some kind of liquid plastic which bonded to the watch case, to repair the broken hole.

Muy buen reloj deportivo, fácil de programar, buenas funciones y llama la atención para iniciar conversación. Además solar y de tamaño contenido, muy recomendable.

If you're looking for a giant oversized in your face Casio, look elsewhere. This watch wears smaller but is packed of features. For times when I need my watch to pop, I'll put on my bright red Casio Gshocks, but with the WS210, I wear it to while commuting and need something reliable.Tough Solar so you probably won't need to change batteries for a while (although the capacity eventually will give out, but probably for over a decade or more).Moon phase and tide graphs if you care. I actually ahve no need for this but it looks so cool! The tide is high now, but I wasn't gonna go to the beach anyways.I love wearing watches that are inexpensive yet well made since I don't have to care if I scratch it when I bang it around. Casio makes great watches with many designs and there is something for everyone.

Very good watch. Happy for the purchase.

Lovely watch- tides and moon much easier to to read and more informative than on my last watch. All easy to read.

使用後約１年の評価です。スポーツ用腕時計としては小振りで自分の細い手首には最適の大きさでした。文字盤周囲の青も上品な色で普段使いにも違和感有りません。潮位計と月齢計も自分には充分な精度ですし全体の視認性も良好だと思います。ストップウォッチ、ワールドタイムなど必要な機能も完備しておりチープカシオの中でも最高の商品のひとつだと思います。ぜひロングセラーになって欲しいです。
