Ana-Digi Electro-Luminescent Sport Casio Men's AQ160W-1BV (Watch)
This is the 3rd Casio I buy in the last year... and the cheapest. I previously tried the Casio Men's AQ160W-1BV and later the Casio Men's AQ160W-1BV, both of the G-Shock family. However, I was looking for one with analog and digital time, but easy to read and with night illumination. The G601 is nice, but the small rounded digital displays are a bit too small for my old eyes, and the night illumination is only for the digital displays!. Then I bought the Casio Men's AQ160W-1BV because Casio Men's AQ160W-1BV was advertised as having two LEDs that illuminated the whole face of the watch and was solar powered. True! but... the design is such that when the face is illuminated in the dark, Casio Men's AQ160W-1BV is so full of shiny surfaces and reflections that you can hardly distinguish the analog hands, and nothing of the digital displays. So, I kept looking and finally decided on this one, the Casio Men's AQ160W-1BV with not too much hope... and voila! it was perfect for me! Thinner than the G-Shocks and very light weight, the digital displays are big and easy to read, even if the hands are over them (the digits look gold on day light, very nice, not like the picture here which shows how it looks when the green back light is on). The backlight, with optional auto turn-on, is perfectly readable, and you can see, besides the big numbers, the silhouette of the analog hands over the background. I am ready to give up the 200m water resist, the solar power, the waveceptor auto time set, the automatic handles setting by the digital clock, all for the good design of this Casio Men's AQ160W-1BV. It would be perfect if Casio Men's AQ160W-1BV added to this one the solar power and the auto setting of the analog clock. The dual world time, auto calendar, chronometer, timer, multiple alarms, are all common features of these
