Everything is more expensive than it used to be in 2023... apart from a cracking Casio watch! Plenty to like here, very similar functions to the AE1300, so it comes down to looks, and how many slots you have left in your watch box. Cheers, Jody

Great review as always. I bought a 1200 for me and one is a Father's Day gift for my father-in-law. We both love it. The referees stopwatch is pretty useless to me so I think I'll stick with my 1200, especially as I believe it's the most charming of the bunch with its nuclear command center world map and radar like analog face.

Superb Legibility, world time features, great stop watch features, more than adequate water resistance, excellent backlight, excellent battery life, and a cool 80s retro look at a down right affordable price. I will definitely be giving this watch the steel case treatment.

I always preferred the AE-1300 over the AE-1200 because of all the interval functions. The only grumble was those next to useless digital dials, I much prefer the display layout of the WS1600. I think this has great potential for moding since since as you say it accepts the mod kits for the 1200 and 1300. good review cheers

Good vid. I do wish I liked digital watches more than I do. I have three G Shocks and the metallic 1200 but I almost never wear them. I have one G Shock with the reverse/blackout display that I wear when helping my father-in-law with potential hunting stuff at night but that's about it. I have a coworker that always used to wear the little $15-ish analog Casio and I have him an all black 1200 but since he never uses any functions other than the time, I suppose the slightly larger display of this one would probably serve him slightly better. Maybe I'll grab one of these for him.

I picked up the black and green one and I love it. It's like the tri-clops but slightly easier to read day/date and the seconds tracking looks cooler IMO. My only complaint is why did they not give a hard plastic corner in the upper left? They already stylized the plastic in other places for this face, so it's odd to me they leave that black screen in the upper left instead of covering it.

@jsytac Жыл бұрын

Jody, You must have seen nearly every affordable watch on the planet. I’m looking for a cheap digital that has the following functionality (Timex Ironman watches used to do this but have now stopped). 1. A Timer that can be set, down to the minute (or second), from 1-60 minutes. I only really need 1-10 min. 2. When the timer hits 00:00 the stop-watch starts. 3. The stop-watch continues to count up until at least 23:59:59. This is for yacht racing where a 10 min gun is fired before a start, and ‘race time’ then needs to be recorded. Ironman used to do: Countdown/stop; Countdown/repeat (useful for the gym); and Countdown/count-up. …but they dropped the Countdown/count-up. Thanks

It's not for me but, the interval timer is something I don't remember seeing before. I used to run a lot and that would have been handy.

If they wanted to update the 1200, the could have made the entire face a display with larger digits for time in the middle and removing the unnecessary animations at the top. And maybe added display for a second time zone. That would have made a real.difference.
