Collection Men's Watch MRW-200H

I recently bought the Casio MRW-200H-7EV. This model has a white dial with luminous green hands and markings, which is clear and uncluttered, making it very easy to see the time. (See images.) It keeps accurate time (as would be expected of a quartz watch) and also shows the day of the week and date. However, there are a few things to note: - My wrists are slim (approx. 6.5in/16.5cm) and although there are plenty of holes in the strap to fit both larger and even slimmer wrists, I find that no matter how I adjust the strap, either the watch casing or strap ends up pressing against the wrist bone, which gets a bit uncomfortable after a while. (I don't have this problem with my other watches, even ones that are metal and heavier.) However, this is probably because the watch is perhaps a bit too large for my wrist, so I'm not going to deduct stars. - Although the hands and markings are luminous, it's not really possible to read the time in the dark as they don't glow for very long, hence my rating of 4.5 - it's a bit annoying but not a big deal. - The front 'glass' is acrylic (plastic/Perspex), so I imagine it may be easily scratched. However, the use of real scratchproof glass cannot be expected for such an inexpensive watch. - When I received this watch, the battery was already dead. However, the supplied instructions state that test batteries are installed during manufacture and may not last as long as the expected battery life of a new battery (approx. 3 years). The dead battery may simply be due to the watch having been sitting in a warehouse for a long time, not because there's any fault with the watch itself. And since installing a new battery (SR626SW/377) the watch has been working fine. - Though some reviewers have commented that the day of the week is not displayed in English, I believe all that's needed is to set the day correctly outside of the period 9pm to 5am, as per the supplied instructions. The model I received shows the day of the week in either English or Spanish, though it has been consistently showing the day only in English since I set it correctly. In summary this is a great watch considering its low price, though perhaps its size is a bit too large for slim wrists.

this will a quick review, it's a cheap Casio, it tells the time, day and date, the time very legible, the date and day are reasonably legible. it's a good everyday beater watch for round the garden etc and whilst not intended to be a G shock replacement, it's fairly tough and being honest it's cheap enough to throw away if broken. one area it is better than a G shock though is the simplicity of the face and that mix of blue numbers and white hands on a simple black background is what makes it easy to read, in daylight at least, some form of night time illumination would have been nice. a pleasant surprise was the bezel is actually functional and whilst obviously not a divers watch, the ability to set it to keep track of how long something has taken is useful. the day / date are a bit small but ok. you could change the strap but the pins are a bit tight to the case and you'd need a farily thin strap, plus the standard one suits it and anything else would probably spoil it. being honest i said it's a beater watch that can the thrown away but i would be upset if i had to as i love it's relative simplicity, legibility and functionality and sometimes just wear if because i want to even though i should be wearing a more expensive watch

I was drawn to this very competitively priced watch by its clear no-nonsense dial display and its practical type of construction. The only drawback experienced is the failure of the instruction given in its user manual to adjust the day (not the date which works OK) as this merely "jumps" and returns to the same day shown. Whether this is an ongoing operational idiosyncrasy remains to be see (literally!) and i shall try again to adjust the day and remedy the "sticking" fault, but I intend to keep the watch for the simple practicality of its essential purpose - to display the TIME: prominently, pleasingly and accurately! The strap is comfortable and long enough to accommodate a large wrist - something not always found in bargain watch buys. The manufacturer is well known and that means a reliable back-up service on offer. For less than a tenner this is a useful "value" timepiece.

Great watch, clear face (black with white numbers) and keeps accurate time. I particularly like the rotating bezel, which makes it easier to time my swims etc. The only thing I don't like is the way you change the date - it is very fiddly to do without altering the day as well and I usually end up getting my partner to do it. I would prefer it if there was only a number to indicate the date and no day of the week, which seems unnecessary to me.

This is a great watch, for those looking for a military style, clear watch face. It's light, robust and waterproof and at first glance, looks just exactly like a Luminox or Traser Mil-spec watch. Great purchase for an everyday or weekend working watch. The couple of minus points are that the case is a bit smaller than advertised - the measurements are 46mm from the edge of the case including the crown and winder, so the watch face width is actually about 43mm. The strap is also a bit on the thin side and there is practically no luminosity at night. That said, for 20 pounds overall, you can't buy better. The numerals are exceptionally clear and the movement is accurate. Casio has great experience in robust, relatively inexpensive watches and there is a reason why armed forces personnel choose Casio as their watch of choice in the field. Other military looking watches are marketed as such, when they are not the real deal. While this watch is no G-Shock, it looks good, is accurate and easily looks like one of its very expensive competitors. Spot-on delivery from Amazon as well.

I work in security where good time keeping is essential. After my old, posh watches band fell apart from the rigors of the job and standing duty in wet weather, I decided I needed a watch which could take a licking and keep on ticking but I would not cry over if it did happen to break. My new Casio watch was delivered swiftly, looks great, following the included instructions it was easy to adjust the time, date, day and seems quite rugged. It is easy to read, even without my reading specs on. The luminescence doesn't last so very long, but this is not a big issue as I most always look at it with some source of light on and can still read it even in low lighting. One flash with my maglight will charge the luminescence for a few minutes. I forgot to take it off when I hopped in a hot bath, but the watch was absolutely fine, no problemo. So the water resistance feature seems to work fine too. The Casio Collection Men's Watch MRW-200H-1BVES looks like a much more expensive watch, does what it says on the box and is great bang for your buck, I highly recommend it!

This CASIO watch arrived in 24 hours with Amazon Prime. it's light and comfortable to wear. I set the time, carefully following the instructions regarding setting the day/date. I immediately saw that the date was 12 hours behind the calendar, easy to resolve - wind it forward 12 hours. Don't just wind the day date setting, The instructions do advise to understand the period of day when the two day/date move in sync with each other. I set the time by stopping the second hand on the 12 and followed the time display on my iPhone, setting the time when both second sweeps were at 12. During the week that I have had the watch, it has not lost 1 second! The watch face displays a water resistance of 100 metres. I have seen a video on YouTube, by an accredited watchmaker, who tested this model watch's water resistance to 50 metres. It passed. That's in excess of 150 feet depth. The general appearance is a "divers type" watch, easy to read, combined day / date calendar, sweep second hand and a good rotating bezel. The lumen in complete darkness, is not as strong as I would have wished it to be, but overall I am very pleased with it...and all for less than £15. I feel confident that it will give good service...Really good value.

Good watch for doing something active like hiking, canoeing, fishing, hunting and etc. Pros: Cheap and easy to use. Excellent build quality Water resistant Can show the day and day of the week. Cons: White paint on watch faded very quickly Cannot properly keep track of the day of week and day number. It always either trails behind 12 hours or rushes 12 hours, thus for 12 hours the day is wrong. The rubber straps make the my arm under it sweaty and will leave a print mark of the strap on your skin. Overall good watch that you won't be sad about if you break it or lose it when you do something active.

Pagato 32 euro. Adoperato per anni e la batteria è sempre quella originale !!! Precisissimo : più preciso di orologi che costano cifre folli ! Quadrante leggibilissimo. Il nome dei giorni è indicato in spagnolo, perciò è come se fossero in italiano (comodissimo !). Più volte lavato, con sapone, sotto l'acqua corrente : nessuna infiltrazione. Se me lo dovessero rubare o se lo dovessi perdere lo ricomprerei sicuramente !

Rien à redire, Casio mérite sa réputation, montre peu chère et de bonne qualité, précise, étanche, style sympa pour l'été, voilà ! Je conseille ce modèle qui se voit bien la nuit (mieux que ttes les autres), bonne taille au poignet 43 mm bonne lisibilité des aiguilles jour/nuit, bracelet souple et agréable au poignet ( très légère ) ...seul bémol, le verre en polycarbonate qui peut se rayer facilement.....

Very happy with this purchase! Bravo!!!!

Acquistato come sostituto di un AW49HE-7AV (che alla fine non si è rivelato così impermeabile come pubblicizzato), sta facendo egregiamente il suo dovere! S'indossa a meraviglia, risultando molto leggero al polso (e ci mancherebbe pure, è di plastica) ed esteticamente accattivante. Va specificato che i colori risultano leggermente più marcati rispetto a quanto si potrebbe immaginare da una prima visione della foto prodotto. Nella confezione (in pieno stile Casio, apprezzabile in foto) vengono forniti certificato di garanzia e manuale d'uso (in spagnolo, portoghese, inglese, francese, giapponese e cinese). La regolazione, tuttavia, non ne richiede la lettura, a mio parere: con un primo scatto della corona regolate i giorni (movimento verso l'alto, in inglese e in un qualcosa a metà tra francese e italiano) e la data (movimento verso il basso, da 1 a 31), con il secondo scatto l'orologio si ferma e potrete regolare l'ora (prestate attenzione alla sincronizzazione per far scattare giorno e data alla mezzanotte). L'illuminazione è assente, escludendo una lieve fluorescenza delle lancette, l'impermeabilità è sui 100 metri e (cosa davvero semplice e fantastica allo stesso momento) la domenica viene segnalata come giorno festivo tramite apposito sfondo rosso. In conclusione un ottimo pezzo, in un perfetto rapporto qualità/prezzo, in pieno stile Casio oramai da decenni.

Ich wollte eigentlich eine Taucheruhr aus Stahl, war mir aber zu teuer. Diese Uhr ist aus Plastik, kostete aber unter 30 Euro und ich bin glücklich damit. Erstens sieht sie gut aus und ist genauso 100 Meter wasserdicht, zweitens ist sie sehr leicht, so dass man sie am Handgelenk kaum spürt und drittens geht sie sehr genau. Das Einstellen von Datum, Zeit und Wochentag war überhaupt kein Problem, ging auch ohne die Bedienungsanleitung zu lesen. Rückblickend bin ich mit der Kaufentscheidung sehr glücklich. Wenn ich andere Rezensionen lese, gehe ich davon aus, dass die Uhr problemlos mindestens zwei Jahre hält. Würd ich mir 10 solche Uhren kaufen, wäre also grade mal der Preis einer Seiko erreicht, die ja mittlerweile auch in China produziert wird und ob die 20 Jahre lang problemlos den Alltag überleben würde ist fraglich. Ich finde generell, dass bei vielen Produkten, besonders aber bei Uhren, der Kunde geneppt wird. Ich kaufte beispielsweise vor etwa 10 Jahren eine Festina Uhr um damals etwa 300 Euro. Nach 2 Jahren war die Batterie leer und kurz zuvor löste sich das Armband auf. Danach kaufte ich eine Uhr mit Metallgehäuse um 10 Euro bei SPAR. Die hielt fast 4 Jahre und ging genauer als die Festina. Wie der Nepp funktioniert hab ich vor 30 Jahren mal im GRUNDIG-Werk gesehen. GRUNDIG produzierte damals für Europa in einer Fabrik in Wien die Fernseher für Europa. Die wurden auf Fliessbändern zusammengebaut. Auf einem stand dann SIEMENS, auf einem anderen IBM, UNIVERSUM, KAPSCH, ... oder was auch immer und drin war überall das Gleiche. Update nach einem Jahr: da ich grade eine Andere Rezession geschrieben habe, ergänze ich gleich die hier. Also, ich kontrolliere jetzt gerade im Netz die Zeit und die Uhr geht exakt 2 Sekunden hinten. Umgestellt wurde sie genau ein mal, bei der Sommerzeitumstellung ich glaube im März, man kann also sagen sie geht sehr genau. Ich trage die Uhr jeden Tag und schone sie überhaupt nicht. Ich verwende sie zum Schwimmen, auf der Baustelle, beim Training und im ganz normalen Alltag. Das Uhrglas hat vom Arbeiten ein paar kleine Kratzer, die sieht man aber nur wenn man sehr genau schaut. Das Armband hat Abschürfungen vom Arbeiten, die auch nicht wirklich stören. Unterm Strich alles extrem positiv. An einer goldenen Uhr mit Lederband wäre inzwischen schon das Gold abgeblättert und das Lederband würde sich auflösen, die würde also auch optisch keinem Vergleich stand halten. Also Leute - seid nicht dumm und spart das Geld für teure Uhren - diese hier ist perfekt! Update 1.1.2017 Seit etwa einem Monat habe ich dieselbe Uhr als neues Modell, diesmal um knapp 20 Euro. Bei der alten Uhr brach das Plastikarmband und ein Tausch rentiert sich bei dem Preis nicht. Die alte Uhr ging zwar immer noch genau wurde aber entsorgt. Dazu muss ich sagen, dass ich die Uhr jeden Tag trug, auch auf der Baustelle, die wurde also ziemlich grob behandelt. Rückblickend kann ich also sagen eine Uhr die 18 Monate absolut zuverlässig geht und 20 Euro kostet entspricht einer Uhr die 200 Euro kostet und 15 Jahre lang genau geht, oder einer die 2000 Euro kostet und 150 Jahre lang genau geht ;) aber wo gibts die? Das Preis/Leistungsverhältnis ist also top!
