Casio7

Product Information

Bracelet is of an acceptable quality but the finishing is average and it's a massive pain to resize due to the tiny collar each pin uses Regardless of which variant you prefer, you’ll be pleased to know it will have sapphire crystal over the dial, for unbeatable scratch resistance, with an anti-reflective coating to make it more legible when in direct sunlight. The M170D measures 9.2mm deep and 39.5mm across the case, with a total lug-to-lug distance of 46.4mm. The lug width is 20mm. The case is round with no crown (button) guards or protrusions. These measurements make you think the watch will wear well on any wrist size, but the design of the dial and lugs make the watch wear bigger. More on that later. Functions: Analog Hour / Minute , Digital Hours (12 / 24) / Minutes / Seconds, Day (in 5 languages!) / Date, Stopwatch, Countdown Timer, 5 Alarms, World Time (29 time zones / 27 cities). A classic semi-dressy ana-digi watch design. Case finish is decently polished but nothing special. Sunburst effect is overdone, distracting from the hands.

Technical amendments and errors excepted. The sizes in figures do not correspond to the original sizes. Always reliable: This watch has a particularly secure safety catch, which helps prevent the strap from opening by mistake. Unlike most all-metal watches at this price point, the Casio Lineage LCW-M510D feels surprisingly robust. The three pushers push with authority, with no play or slop to ruin the impression. The Lineage isn’t as adamantine as the entry-level Casio Oceanus– which costs twice as much – but it’s closer to reassuringly solid than worryingly flimsy. Nice review! Thanks for comparing both versions in such a detail. I own an lcw-m100tse as well as a lcw-m100dse. To me the titanium version is a bit more comfortable. Lighter, a touch warmer and the surface of the titanium looks a bit more expensive.

Despite its beauty, remarkably, the dial also houses a solar cell as part of the ‘tough solar’ technology. This is a solar-powered system, akin to Citizen’s ‘eco-drive’, which allows the watch battery to be charged directly from exposure to sunlight. According to the manual, this takes just 8 minutes to fully charge in outdoor sunlight and can hold the power reserve for a minimum of 4 months, even with no further exposure to light. This means battery changes aren’t going to be needed nearly as frequently as with a traditional quartz movement; there are reports of some of these even lasting several decades before failing to hold a charge.

This is the sensible use of an ani-digi, where the littel screen does a bit more than a mechanical display can without getting all nutty. Elapsed time, split time and final time are measured with 1/100-sec accuracy. The watch can measure times of up to 1 hour. Casio state that this watch is water resistant to 5bar. You can occasionally wear it in the shower or while swimming. But keep in mind that sauna-steam could cause the sealing to expand causing gaps. The creation has a shell diameter of 40mm, which is gent's medium. It closes via a deployment mechanism. Handy features include: day alarm. Casio Timepieces: Price UKThe Lineage watches are solar powered and that makes the Battery Level Indicator particularly useful. I am certain that many reading this (my first post here) know way more than I do about these topics.

Perhaps they just don't like not having the option, like it's a 'control thing' and the inanimate object is dictating how it should function....IDK, maybe I'm missing something! You’ll notice that all text is just inked onto the surface, though they are completed to a high standard, with no noticeable flaws even when analysed closely. Replacing batteries a simple affair (4 screws), obtaining battery easy also, CTL1616 if memory serves. The countdown timer emits a signal after a preset period of time has elapsed. The watch has a maximum timing capacity of 100 minutes and can be set in minute-long cycles. The series represents the elegant men’s watch that fits any dress code and at the same time offers a number of key features such as Radio Signal Reception, Solar Power and Water Resistance.In Time Mode, you can set the display to display the Day/Date, digital seconds or digital time (hour:minutes). Otherwise, you’re looking at a digital stopwatch, countdown timer, world time or one of five alarms. Nailed it! I presume this is due to the fact that the orange one is a year or so older and its internal button cell is beginning to age. Thank you for your valuable info and detailed review. Recently, I was also interested to buy a titanium Casio Lineage LCW-M170TD-1AER or a LCW-M100TSE-1AER but in the end I got a Casio Oceanus OCW-S100-1AJF. This one is for a relative as a gift, but I want one myself now, this gave me a chance to try it out. The only considerations I have now are: About that S100, would you mind measuring the diameter of the crystal for me and/or shoot a side by side pic with the M170T perhaps?
