CASIO Women's LA670WGA-9 Gold Stainless-Steel Quartz Watch with Digital Dial

As my eyesight gets worse with age, I was looking for a durable, waterproof, easy-to-read watch with a simple timer that looked great on my wrist. I own both a Fitbit and Apple watch – I was getting tired of being tracked all the time and getting notifications about everything (which yes, I know can be adjusted). I’ve owned Casio watches before and still have a G-Shock digital that’s been running great for almost 20 years, so after reading many reviews here on Amazon and elsewhere, it was an easy decision to make.I went with the black face and bezel model, although you really can’t go wrong with any of the other colors offered. It’s a classic diving watch that, in my opinion, looks sturdy, cleaner and more elegant than some of the more expensive competitors. Given Casio’s proven durability over the decades and the price point of this particular watch, you can't miss with this one.There are a ton of You Tube videos and review articles online about this diver (which is a bit of a cult classic it seems) – the vast majority of which are overwhelmingly positive, so I won’t add much more here that hasn’t already been stated there. One common “complaint” that I noticed though is regarding the stock watchband. Many are critical of it, but I tend to disagree.I did take the advice of some and tried a few different aftermarket bands – the Barton elite silicone, a Ritchie classic leather band, and a Ritchie nylon NATO strap (all available on Amazon). With the exception of the NATO, I personally found the stock Casio diver band the watch comes with to be the most comfortable of the others tried – not taking away from or knocking the others by any means, it’s just a “why spend the extra money” type thing for a $50-ish watch. Simply a personal thing…Re the NATO strap in my pics: I did keep the Ritchie Premium Nylon strap to compliment the watch. It really does dress it up and make the timepiece pop for more “formal” occasions if you will – and very comfortable too. For everyday use though, the stock classic diver-style band turned out to be the most practical for me – one I recommend over aftermarket options and especially for those in the trades or who are knocking around on the beach, out hunting, at the lake, etc.If I had to be critical of any aspect of this watch, it would be the luminescent capacity of the hands and markers – something also frequently mentioned in many of the reviews I read online. It’s marginal at best. When blasted with high intensity light, the markers glow brilliantly initially, but it does seem to fade quick. I mention it because if this is an important feature for you night owls, it is something to consider. For me, it’s acceptable and not enough of a factor for me to change my rating of the piece.Bottom line is that I highly recommend this waterproof diver. It’s superior quality with Casio durability and reliability at a price that can’t be beat. It keeps d***-near perfect time and doesn’t have to be charged on a daily basis or wound ever – just a simple, inexpensive battery keeps it going for a couple of years. You will not be disappointed with this one! Thx, DTEdit 2/2/2024: A word on timekeeping: Having owned this watch for a while now, it does GAIN a few seconds every month. I go to www.time.gov to set adjust time every now and then... It's still more accurate than my other watches though - amazing considering this is a $50-ish dollar piece. Highly recommend this watch!

I've only had the watch now for a few days, so this review will stand as an initial impressions statement. I will, however, return and expand upon my review as time goes on. You can see this on my Casio W-735H review. I bought this watch so that I'd have a real diver style watch for our vacation to St. Lucia. I wanted something that looked and felt the part and could actually take some abuse in the water, but not make me cry if it breaks or I lose it.Initial impressions: Really beautiful color, I got the blue dial and bezel and it's an extremely deep, gorgeous azure. The size and heft are perfect for me, I have a 7.25" wrist and this fits perfectly. Any larger and it would look a little ridiculous. I'm not normally into polished cases like this one has, but I'm ok with it. The bezel is hard to turn, but that's actually a design feature. Dive watches are meant to be uni-directional and you really don't want them just freely spinning, it's meant to track usable oxygen in a tank, after all. I put mine on a NATO band and it fits the style very well, but I was not prepared for how good the stock bands are, they feel like very decent quality for mass produced plastic. The operation is silent, I'm sure that's from the density of the case and crystal, but it's totally silent, even when I held it up to my ear, I couldn't hear anything. I also have no idea how deep I'm going to take this watch, but the 200 meter depth rating instills confidence. I'll go nowhere near that, but it's still a nice feature.Gripes: Almost everything I have an issue with is subject to personal bias based on a design (artistic) choice and will not be applicable to most other people. First, I don't care for how small the Casio name and the Marlin logo at the bottom is on the dial, not a good use of negative space. Next, I also wish the lumed indices were slightly larger to help eat into the dial center a little more as well as the date window and number, I feel it's a little small. Again, a negative space design choice. I feel if the dial were balanced out just a little better, this would become my favorite daily wear watch. Very personal, small dings that really only matter to me. Some things that aren't design gripes? This thing really does attract fingerprints and it shows them off in all their detail, so I find myself constantly wiping them away. Also, you can get a pretty bad glare off the crystal unless it's pointed straight at your face. Lastly, the lume doesn't last very long, maybe 15 minutes before it's pretty well dead. In perfectly dark environments I'm sure you might still be able to see it, but not in partially lit, but still very dark areas.Overall impression after just a week: I really enjoy wearing and looking at this watch, the deep blue color catches my eye and I tilt and turn in the light so that I can see the ultra deep color through the crystal. And, for what it's worth, it's plenty accurate from what I can tell (quartz watches usually are). The value for money is just off the charts, even Bill Gates wears one and he can afford like...any watch...company, he can afford a whole watch company, he could afford a bunch of watch companies, multiple factories, the people to make them, stores...and yet, he wears one of these....so yeah....The value is there. Anyone who wants to get into diver watches should really look at these, give them a try and see if you like the style. There are also plenty of colors to choose from and lots of NATO straps out there to help complete the look, if that's your thing. Somehow, this piece manages to have it's cake and eat it to, and then go back for seconds. It looks amazing, works very well and yet, is so cheap that you wish you bought another one, just for fun. Other than my design dings, there isn't much to dislike about this watch. Right about now I wish I'd bought a solar model, but that's only so that I'd never have to change a battery. I'm also very surprised by the following that Casio has on Reddit. The Casio subreddit is loaded with people who love their cheap, yet incredibly accurate, amazingly tough and truly capable watches, and now, I'm one of them.

Viene con su muestrario con información, bien etiquetado y detallado.Me gustó mucho, se ve bien y se ve la calidad. Me llego antes de lo esperado :)

200m under the sea you could be with this delightful timepiece. Stylish, effective and versatile, this watch can be dressed up or dressed down depending on the function. Classic style and simple refined elegance are words that can be easily used to define this piece. More than worth the money! Oh and it tells time!

Definitivamente una excelente compra. Se ve excelente, en verdad todo mundo se admira y menciona lo bonito que se ve. te hace reflexionar sobre el verdadero valor de las cosas, da la hora, funciona de maravilla, no se atrasa, no se adelanta, tiene un gran precio, su calidad es muy buena, se siente bien, si somos honestos si tuviera el logo de una corona, la gente pensaría que es un reloj de 18 mil dólares. Es una gran compra, no lo pienses mucho. No permitas que el mundo dicte tus finanzas, diciéndote que debes gastar mucho por un articulo cuyo valor recae en el estatus, y no la funcionalidad. Tú vales por lo que eres, no por un reloj en la mano. (por cierto, he visto comentarios donde se quejan que no gira el bisel, solo tienen que quitar la etiqueta de enfrente y problema resuelto). Solo cómpralo, no lo pienses tanto, total, si no te gusta se lo puedes regalar a alguien.

Muy buen reloj se siente de buena calidad, a un precio muy razonable, super recomendado para el día a día.

Best bang for your buck watch. It is large but on my 6.5 inch wrist it still looks awesome and does not have lug overhang.
