The Casio A168W, A-168W, A168 has one of the worst names in horological history. Nonetheless this is an ICON that stayed extremely affordable. Worth adding to your collection, yes indeed.
The A168 is very closely related to the F-91W which is the archetype of any and all quartz watches...

I haven’t owned a digital watch since the 80s, I think it’s time to change that.

Do what I did - buy selection 5 Casios from F91 to A168, for about $80 USD if you shop around.

I love these watches, I have the 158 for 5 years now and I'm thinking about getting the 168 also. I also have an f91w.

I have recently started collecting Casio watches, this one takes me back in time. I owned one in the mid 90s and wore it out. I've had several different watches since and I spotted this one at Walmart for $22 and decided, why not? Anyway, great review on a great brand of watch. Thanks.

That is also what drew me to this one :-) Mega nostalgia. If it can help - I recently got another one from the vintage collection, and really enjoy wearing it, the video is here kzfaq.info/get/bejne/sJ95f8uTsbWdXY0.html

You and many others for sure. Unfortunately it is not. I have to say though, I have been wearing mine a LOT and for a long time now, the case holds up quite well. The bracelet takes most of the beating and that is in metal, quite smart by CASIO.

Congrats. You can resize the bracelet very easily (you can even do it with a fork ) and it will certainly fit a small wrist without any problem. You just need to unlock the clasp, and slide it along the bracelet to a spot that fits you 👍
