I have a 1982 original and can compare them side by side. The re-make is smaller, lighter, thinner and the strap is a 2 part and not continuous like the original. The other difference is that the re-make is only water resistant, whereas the original was water-proof to 100m. I also found that the light is a poor green colour and does not illuminate the digits as well as the original which was a bright yellow. But having said all that I still like the watch and will be wearing it from now on.

I've now had four of these Casio A163WA watches and they are utterly reliable and incredible value, ideal for everyday wear and cheap to replace. The battery is rated to last for seven years, and I've never had one run out. The stainless steel strap is simple and robust. I find it far more comfortable than resin straps, and they are simple enough to adjust if you need to. The display is easy to read, and the functions simple to use. The only negative point is the backlight, which is a bit feeble in the dark. The watch can sustain heavy wear and mine have picked up all sorts of scratches and dings in the course of their lifetime. Eventually the silvered plating begins to wear away on the high spots. The water-resist claim is accurate - don't wear it when swimming or diving but be confident it will cope with brief immersion and generally wet conditions. Read full review

This is a fantastic copy of a watch that was bought in the early 80's. It has a comfortable band, and keeps excellent time

I had a clone of one of these back in the early 80s. I always wanted the upmarket Casio one like my friends. I saw this and bought for my 10 yo son - he loves it. Super retro style and enough buttons around the bezel to satisfy anyone. Not very heavy and the bracelet needs a small tool to lift the latch lock to adjust (unless you have steel fingernails) The alarm going off at 0800 every morning is the soundtrack to my childhood
