It doesn’t really bring much new to the table, but if you are a fan of Casio’s retro watches, then this one is definitely worth looking into.Overall, this is a simple, low profile design. Nothing about it stands out too much. Basically what you see is what you get here. Now, we can get into the features. Features The great thing about this is that despite the fact that this watch is so inexpensive, you know it will have a degree of longevity to it, as it is a Casio product. Now while these newer retro models may not be made exactly like the originals, the overall style and design is pretty much going to be the same. You may not be even able to tell the originals from the newer models at a glance. For the younger generations that didn’t grow up on these styles, they get a chance to experience the retro theme in a more modern era. While the style may not be for everybody, it will be appealing to many. This is especially true for people who prefer much slimmer and more low profile watches on their wrists. As you already know, this build follows the retro style them. It looks very much like a lot of the others in this series such as the W86, and the A700. A lot of Casio’s retro themed watches are virtually identical to each other, at least at first glance. The overall profile on this one, like the others in this series, is small, slim and sleek.

There is one thing that annoys me about the W217H. A very minor thing. The functionality of the top left and bottom right buttons have been flipped. The night light is now the bottom right and the button to switch from 12-hour to 24-hour or use for start/stop on the stopwatch is now the top left. You won’t find anything here that you haven’t seen in any other digital watch. The Casio W217H has all of the typical features that come standard in digital watches. Nothing more, nothing less. The watch face is pretty simple and standard. There is going to be the digital display, along with text that describes the functions of the watch. The text blends well in with the watch. There are no neon colors that pop out like you would find in some of their other models. After all this time, Casio may have finally released something that's a proper successor to the F-91W. Complete the short form that accompanies your product. Please ensure that you complete all of the sections, as this will guarantee the timely processing of your return/exchange.This model is obviously made to look very much like the F-91W. It uses the same battery, boasts the same 5-to-7 year battery life, has the same chrono and single alarm functions, looks good and has a larger-but-not-too-large case. So, overall, this is a fairly decent build, especially for such a low priced watch. This build is nothing too spectacular, but it will not disappoint. Casio is known for manufacturing pretty sturdy watches at fairly affordable prices. I love the plain styling of it, and again I might get it. Maybe. I really don't need another watch. But the styling of this works so well... Now, with that out of the way, let’s dive into the review! We will begin by looking at the overall build quality of this watch. Build

Hi, my name i Juan Carlos. I am the author of this watch blog and watchmaker, got my knowledge and skills from my father. I have been repairing different watches since 2002 and since recently I have been keeping my blog, sharing my experience. In my workshop, new modern equipment, original materials and spare parts, compliance with production processes allow me to always find a solution. I personally supervise the observance of standards and compliance with all repair and maintenance regulations.This watch can be worn when showering and bathing – it is tested for water resistance up to 5 bar according to ISO 22810. Casio consistently releases quality products. This is to the point that even their cheaper models will outlast most other watches in the same price range. Once set, the automatic calendar always displays the correct date, Auto-calendar (28 days for February)

Aside from that button change, the W217H is functionally identical to the F-91W. I don't know what is being used for the night light. Most likely a green or amber LED but I know it's not EL. Another improvement is that the watch is 50M water resistant instead of just the standard 30M. Just seeing these types of styles will no doubt reignite nostalgia for the older fans that remember when the styles originally gained popularity. If you fit into that group, then you may very well still possess some of the original models. So, as far as features go, you know what to expect here. Finally, we can take a look at the price of this watch. PricingOnce again here, we are looking at another solid entry to Casio’s retro styled line of watches. The W217H follows in the footsteps of the F91W and the W86.
