Casio also has watches without the step tracker that have the "Lap Memory" feature. For example, the models WS-1400H ("Men's") and LWS-1200H (for smaller wrists) can save up to 60 records of measurement start month, date, day, lap/split times, lap/split number.

I am SO glad you shared that! I looked at the website to confirm and it is completely true! :) Thank you! I had to laugh out loud - I have looked at both of those SO many times to buy because I love how they look - but I have always held off. Now you have shown me that I need to act immediately on all of my impulses to purchase budget Casios. :) Thanks! :)

Hi Anne !!! My G Shock was part of me for so many years. It's like my Fieldmaster. Never left home without it. Since retiring & I'm home most of the time doing hobbie projects, I don't wear it. Kathy is working on a leather loop type strap so I can use my GShock as a pocket watch. We will see how that works out. I'm also trying to design a belt type railroad watch carrier for it as well. Watching your videos has sparked my/our creativity. Thank You -- Joe --

Happy New Year, Jack! Oh shoot, I was gonna put a link to that study. I'll see if I can find it and put it in now. Yes, I had a man who also liked cassio watches. Try it on and he felt totally comfortable with it. Honestly, it really wasn't much smaller than his A158 or whatever it was, he was wearing. But the strap is not long enough for people with big wrists and on Amazon, there are a lot of negative reviews because it's listed as a men's watch and then men with large wrists, buy it and are like, what the heck is going on here. Thank you for watching. Have a great New Year!!

Hey. This is We All Wear Bandaids. We spoke about a few things, like polishing a Victorinox with alcohol. As I recall, it didn't give you the expected results. I wanted to get my channel going and just never got it in gear. However, I have grown my knife collection a bit, and I've really been focusing on older models. Since then I stumbled across The Knife Doktor. This guy has really made my knife fever spark up. I have my second box of "I hope these are good knives" coming from eBay. There's one in particular that I hope is what I think it is. Possibly an almost 100 year old Wenger. The Knife Doctor also has helped me to mentally refine what I want out of a knife channel. And that's community. So, be looking out for my take on knives, and hopefully I can bring some value to the knife crowd.

As an intern who does rotation in the ward and ER, your list couldn't be more true. It really is a no nonsense watch. I've had several casio watch before, and it's either too simplistic, or so packed with impractical feature no one really need. Most of us don't really travel accros 5 different timezone on a daily basis (looking at you, ae1200). I'm a male with 6.5 inch wrist, and I find any watch more than 42 mm diameter is just too bulky. So this watch form factor is making it even more perfect for me though its marketed for women. I think the designer over in casio really does need to consult some women to cut all the BS feature and form factor. Thanks for the recommendation, been using it for a week now.

Thanks for the excellent review. I beg the difference, but I don't see it as a "women's watch". My left wrist is 6.75 inches, and my right is 7 inches, and I wear it on both. It looks great. It is an ideal watch for sprints and jumps trainings, as it is ridiculously light and small. As to the keeper, I guess it depends on the characteristics of the specific wrist, as mine certainly keeps, on both wrists. I've used it for more than three weeks now, intensively, and it never failed to keep, not even during most intensive sprints and jumps drills.

I have this new style, pre-set, countdown timer on my ws1600. Still trying to understand WHY they sacrificed the previous generation, custom set timer for this one. You could pre-set the intervals they include here yourself while still keeping the flexibility of the custom set. Just give us MORE of the pre-gen ones, if anything. This is a feature I actually use. The second important one after the time. The watch is great but, this new feature change sucks.
