10 years. They’re really efficient on battery use great video!!

I've got one from my last birthday (09/26/2024). I love this watch. Thank you. I'll use this watch until it dies or until I die, whatever comes first lmao.

The A168 is my favorite watch ever made. My first one lasted me about 15 years. It was my only watch through middle school and high school. I went to replace the battery, and saw the gasket was pretty much disentigrated. Seeing that is was my only watch, it was understandable. After getting more into watches about 3 years ago, the first thing i bought was another A168.

I’ve pruned trees while wearing my A168. I regularly swim and dive at least 10 ft, tread water, go to water parks, work on my vehicles and it doesn’t even look like I do all that with it on. The most I had to fix was the buckle when it got bent a little while getting snagged in something. So I bent it back and ship shape.

Great video! Your watches are in great shape considering how long you've had them! I've given my Casio A158W more scratches in a month than you've given your watches in nine years!

Just got mine today, had one before but rather not impressed since I was into automatics. I got bored later and this time I am keeping the retro simple watches.

11 years? What did Casio say that the battery would last would be interesting.
I bought a Casio G-2900 in 2007. One reason was the "10 year Battery" print on the display.
It still runs on the *same battery* today, and the light works and it is readable. I use it as my main alarmclock to wake up for years now. I have replaced the outer housing of the watch as it broke after years of heavy use, but the watch itself is still unopened since it has left the factory. (and it is the first "plastic" watch i ever had where the strap lasted longer than 2 years. It's still the same strap since 2007 too!)
If it makes it 3 more years the battery would have lasted twice what Casio reckoned. And if not, i am still more than ok with it already lasting 17 instead of 10 years.

Casio must build little bit bigger version of this watch

Was the backlight dimmer at all before stopping ? That’s amazing how long these things can go for

I bought a 168 a few weeks ago and kept all packaging to return it if I didn’t like it. It’s a cool little retro watch but so small even on my skinny wrist. I don’t think it’s going to get much wrist time am tempted to return before 30 days are up possibly keep for collection. I have numerous Casios. Nice little bangers 🍻 cheers

The w59 was released first... Corrections and retractions.

Nice video, I'm guessing you will not return to that incompetant watch maker again after he ruined the o-ring.

But I must say you keep your casios in exellent condition!

your 168 looks still nice! hasn't it been worn often? I am thinking to get ABL 100we but not sure if the case can last and survive every day scratches

[themddream]

I just purchased a Gshock gm s 2100 gold ..
Stumbled upon your video .. I hope mine lasts 10 yrs .🤞.
Good presentation.

I have an A178 that has been going on 8 years I think. Its pretty awesome what these little guys can do! Damn dude. That guy could have ruined your watch!!! That is sloppy workmanship. Glad to see it shine in bright blue once more! Hope you have a great week bud!

I also had bad experience with the watch master who replacing battery on my old Diesel watches. He ruined the o ring and tell me nothing about it. I noticed it when I found myself under heavy rain and on the very next morning saw that the watch face is foggy(((

[Максим-хпк]

I’m thinking about buying a watch like this, but I’m worried that through time acrylic glass does not lose its appearance due to scratches. What could you say? The video doesn’t show many scratches

[chrispark]

Hi. Thanks for sharing. When we buy a Casio watch at a shop (or on the internet), how do we know how old the battery is? Because if I buy one at a shop and the watch has been ‘on’ for 5 years in its box, how do we know?
