CasioMen's HDC-700-1AVCF Classic Analog-Digital Display Quartz Black Watch

I need a watch has analog display (easy for me to read) and digital function (need the alarm and the countdown) also shows the day-date (the day has to be 3 digits e.g. Sunday is "sun" instead of "su"). I know I am very demanding, but it is just me, LOL.Have bought this watch for a couple of days. Yes, it fits all my needs.Pro:1) Light weight, fair value materials, price is low and quality is fair. The glass is just a piece of plastic which is how I felt, but I put a packing clear tape on it and cut the edge off as my home made scratch protection.2) There are 4 push buttons, except the center one for light, the other 3 seemed like are metal with rough surface which generate enough friction to hold and push it down.3) It has Telememo, World Time, Snooze, two daily alarms, Count Down, hourly signal, and Stop watch functions.4) 10 years battery which is better than solar battery (if solar battery never die), or it will be more expensive to replace a solar.5) Casio always uses 4 screws to secure the back plate, much easier to replace the battery than other brands.6) It has a smaller case (44 mm) with a larger LED display.Neutral:1) Telememo, I don't know who needs this, because smart phones can do much more. Also, I try not to buy a watch with Waveceptor, smart phone can always pick up the correct time right after the airplane touch down. However, Waveceptor can auto reset the watch, but the problem is if it can receive the signal? and for how long? I still prefer the old school way to manually adjust.Con:1) There is no pull out button to set up the analog, and this watch can only go forward. For example, if analog is 2 min faster, then I have to forward the hand for 11 hours and 58 min to correct it, that is a lot of pain, even you can hold both C & D to have the hand auto advance. Or, it only need to go backward for 2 min.2) It can show two time zones time, but the digital day-date only matches with the digital time. One can not set the day-date to match with the analog.Overall, I love this watch, and there is a metal version "AMW830D-2AV".

Awesome watch with the casio heritage useful features

Good looking watch, especially in Tan color. Looks like a G-Shock but for much lower price. Has some useful basic functions, good for swimming, very light.But:- it has actually 4 buttons, no button at the right top- TEL feature - can save up to 30 phone numbers. Does anyone used this feature in the last 20 years?- Black digital display is not very well visible. Strange it is not lightened at all by the watch light. Only analog display (which is glowing in the dark) is lightened.- The analog and digital time need to be set separately.- some buttons beep and some not, and this cannot be changed.The bottom line: cool looking everyday basic watch for low price.

Looks like a g-shock for a steal of a price. My old eyes can read the time and even see the day date with decent light. I do not like Casios plastic straps so put on a nylon-velcro strap from Hemsut (18mm) that makes this an awesome package.

Watch has the look and price I was looking for. Works great, but a bit complicated to set. I had to watch a YouTube video to figure it out. No problems since setting up.

I switched back to a analog watch face. The calender is digital. At work, buttons would get pressed, and change the setup. Only have the 2 buttons for setup. Good watch for the price. Desert sand color, gives more of a military look.

Normally I love Casio...but not this watch! I received it over a month ago...still can't figure out how to set it up!The Buttons give you the illusion that you just pull out and set the time...not even close!Wish I hadn't bought this Casio...but I still love Casio watches!

I've had my share of both Casio regular and G-shock watches and pretty familiar with relatively consistent programming and functions of their other designs. This one turned out to be an outlier. It was supposed to be an upgrade from my last Casio, AQ-S810W, but in many ways it was a downgrade.I like how it looks, at least in tan/black color scheme. It supposedly has a 10-year battery, which I prefer over the Solar charging. With solar, when the watch wasn't exposed to enough light, it'd go into a "hibernation" mode and effectively shut off the display to preserve and extend battery life, which happened on more than one occasion and usually at night. So a 10-year battery is a plus.The LCD display on this model shows both date and day of the week in the same view (on AQS810W you had to change the view, which was really annoying)HDC700 also has a dual clock, but it's implemented very poorly- to the point where it's practically useless. It seemed like a good idea to have the analog hands show the time in the current/home location and for the LCD to show the time in another time zone, however there's only one calendar and it's tied to the LCD clock, so it'll roll over the day/date at midnight and no longer be in sync with the time shown by the hands. This pretty much defeats the purpose of having a dual clock.What's worse , there's no time zone setting on either clock (AQS810W had one), so when traveling you have to manually adjust analog and/or LCD clocks every time, instead of simply switching the clock(s) to a different time zone. What were Casio engineers thinking removing the most basic timezone setting function on an electronic watch in the 21st century! Definitely an inexcusable ommision.Adjusting the analog clock is also unnecessarily cumbersome - the minute hand moves in 20 sec increments instead of 60sec increments (and syncing up the seconds by resetting a seconds counter like Casio other models do).It seems from other reviews some people can't even figure out how to set the analog clock (or expect it'll sync with the LCD clock), tho the instructions are actually quite clear.The hands only move in one direction, clock-wise, so to set the time an hour earlier you actually have to move the hands ahead by 23 hours. And they move very slowly, even in "high speed" mode. Extremely travel unfriendly design.Also, as others have mentioned, the illumination is pretty much useless...All this renders this watch less than desirable for frequent travelers.
