In this Casio W-86 review video, I take a look at the best alternative to the Casio F-91W... its successor if you will. This Casio W86 has several clear advantages and one or two slight disadvantages to consider. Either way, I think it's still the best cheap Casio digital watch out there right now.

I work in security in the UK and have had the W-86 for a year or so now. I work 6 12hr night shifts out of every 8 so it lives on my wrist as it's tough, durable, functional, reliable, comfortable, rarely gets in the way, and costed me £8 from Amazon. I own other nicer watches which I will switch to occasionally on my days off if I have made social plans but otherwise it only comes off the wrist during bath of shower time when I will wash it (submerged) and dry it again before I then wash myself! I actually miss it when I have nicer watches on because of the functionality and how at home it feels on the wrist. One year when the battery dies I will replace the battery instead of the watch just out of sentiment and worst case scenario if it needs replacing I can always afford to. The watch that loves you more than it loves it'self!

They are perfectly fine in water unless you get really unlucky or consistently spend hours pushing the buttons while the watch is submerged. I take mine off before bath time and chuck it into the bubble bath for a few minutes before I get in myself, wash it before i wash myself, then leave it to dry while I wash, then towel dry the watch and we're both good to go! Also, there is a russian guy who pressure tests all manor of watches in an underwater pressure chamber watch goes to thousands of bar of pressure, it's amazing how deep under water casio watches can go before they start to fail, most can go deeper than the deepest scuba divers can safely dive to so they are fine to take swimming etc unless you get really unlucky with a Monday watch. Enjoy.

I think main draw of F91 is that it's an absolute legend, and a childhood memory for many - for a price of a meal in your fastfood place of choice. I got one just to be in a collection. Wear it around house doing chores and such, it virtually weighs nothing. Might as well not be there. But as I've said beyond simplicity and hilariously low price - it's just a part of pop culture people like to have. There are better digital watches. There are better digital watches from Casio. But there's only one watch you wore when you were 7. When summers seemed to last forever, and life was worry-free. And for many it was the F91.

I have the F-91W, F-105, and W-86 (thanks to Ben) and I'd say the 91 and 105 are very similar except for the backlight, with the 86 being slightly larger in every dimension so has a bit more wrist presence. As stated the 86 is the only one that says it has 5 bar WR, though I bet if you wanted to push your luck you could probably go do 5 bar activities (i.e. swimming) w/ the 91 or 105 and they'd be just fine. It's a bummer that the 86 appears to be an EU (or maybe UK) market watch so you really have to go looking under a bunch of rocks to get this at a reasonable price (for what it is) if you live in North America. At a little over 20something grams, all of these watches pretty much disappear on the wrist, small or not.

The W-86 is essentially an F-91W with a light modification yet the F-91w is still the world's best selling watch. That tells you that the F-91w is more than just a watch. It genuinely is an icon of our times. It's gone beyond just being a watch into being God tier. Not many watches manage that.

I have tried both the W96 and the F91W. I lean towards the F91W more, it is just a tiny bit more svelt and comfortable. Sure the light on the W96 is vastly superior, and so is the water resistance is better. But day to day I've not noticed that the water resistance matters. I've even dived down to 10 metres with an F91W without any problem and I've paddle boarded all summer long without issues either.

Check out the W800-h. It's basically a 20 dollar g shock and you can hack it to add a count down timer screen. Casio had to downgrade the module manually just to make it less competitive for g shocks. It's also a true 4 button module and it's not much bigger than a Casio F-91w.

W201 (1st choice, more below) and W800 beat them and their relatives at pretty much the same price, plus have noticeably improved water-resistance ratings of 50 and 100 meters! The W800 is much tougher and has better functions. It is 100 meter water-proof, approaching G-Shock case ruggedness with clean and simple shape, calendar fully programmed to 2099 (no adding 29th day in leap years), etc. BUT the one to get is the W201, which is more accurate, both in the catalogue, and in real life. I usually set it about once or maybe twice a year, and it was never more than half a minute off! It is still OK for 50 meters, so splash and swimming proof, and it also has that calendar out to 2099, which the much simpler F105W and relatives (F91W, W86, etc) do not. I had a W201 for about 15 or 20 years as a work beater, and it took major abuse some people would cringe at with a G-Shock! I finally tossed it when the battery died (WAY longer than 10 years!), it was totally scratched up (NOT, it actually buffed out!), and the strap had broken off. I wish I had kept it and just put a new battery in and strap on it :) NO extruding buttons (they are flush!), not squarish but gently curved oval sides, totally snag free, small, MOST accurate Casio in the under 100 Dollar range with some of the analog types (like the MQ24- series, have the 7B2 model, great beater, easy to read) at +/-20 secs per month, when all others are spec'd at +/- 30 secs/month. BTW: that totally clean and edge free shape makes the W201 THE ideal nurse's and doctor's watch, because aside from it being impossible to get hung up anywhere, it is so easy to clean! The larger Casios are easier to read with their bigger displays, but the nonsensical "sporty" shapes with all their protruding edges and nooks and crannies do have their draw-backs, like retaining blood spatters after a whack-job ... oops, I mean, bacteria and such, when you are supposed to be digging in somebody's ... never mind!!!

This is a nice watch, although I personally see two downsides. The first one being that it is not so easy to find one. I have not found any available stock outside the UK. In Europe on Amazon and eBay is out of stock at the moment. The second one is the price. On Amazon the F91 retails for €15 to €19, whereas this one would cost on Amazon (I have checked with a price tracker) around €25-29 and the official Casio retail price would be €29 / £29. It is not THAT cheap, comparing to the F91.

I prefer it to the 91. A lad a school had one and I always like the look and admired it. When I saw it on offer at Argos for £11 I just thought why not haha

The 105 does seem to be the better upgrade over the F91. I have one and it is really the perfect size for me. I really like just about all Casios but my favorite...A158 (camel color)

My F105 backlight is great. On the other hand, the straps are cheap like the F91. It's not water-rated rated at 50M, but I've warn them while kayaking for 20+ years and never had a problem.

Totally agree, it wears much better on the wrist than the F91 and the strap is much better as well, still not as cool as the F91 though.

They should make the F-91 50m water proof. It looks so much better than the W-86 but isn't rated for swimming - which I need a cheap and reliable digital watch & timer for i.e. the W-86. Maybe I'll just order both.

It would be great if Casio made a larger version of the f91w. for now we'll have to make do with this or the w217h as alternatives. I have both the f91 and w217h. Definitely prefer the latter as the f91 looks a bit small on my wrist. Still wear it now and again purely for nostalgia 🤣

The crappy backlight is the best part especially if youre wearing for irony or nostalgia. Seeing the torture test of the f91w being frozen, boiled, washed, ran over, dropped, set on fire and still ticking is the winner tho

F91w is not my favorite but I use it very rarely in daytime only.. because the backlight is uselees a total garbage.. for me if the backlight is weak then it is only for daytime.. my favorite casio are the a168, a700 & the f105 I wore them regularly, they are all sleek comfy & have very good backlight..

I have 4 classic, 1 jelly, and f94,. The f series for me is the best. The 91 is a well built almost unbreakable watch. I wear another watch and miss my 91 after 15minutes. So I have to put my f91 back on. Nice video nothing wrong with the w86 just not for me. I like the dim backlit 91.
