I've worn this watch continuously since 2019. I've replaced it once. I only take it off when I play beach volleyball. It stays on when I shower and when I sleep.
For me, knowing the exact time helps me make quick decisions and plan my day. I don't like being late. It answers questions like: Am I running late? Exactly how many seconds do I have until my 9am meeting? Never rushed - often early or on time.
I prefer glancing at this Casio over my phone. It doesn't have notifications to pull my attention away compulsively.
If you hold others' opinions of your appearance highly, this watch isn't for you. I wear simple, clean clothes. And, this watch falls inline with that. At the end of the day, it tells the time just like all other watches.
It's a popular watch worn by many kinds of people. It's a great bridge between strangers who also wear this watch. Anecdotally, I've met numerous people abroad wearing the same watch. It's a small pleasure of mine to compliment them and spark a conversation.
Wearing this watch keeps me humble.
