Casio AE-1500WH-5AVEF

Price 49.99 USD excluding sales tax

The AE-1500WH has an incredibly large and clear display, probably the biggest digits you'll see on a Casio. It also has some nifty features not often seen in the budget series, and it's quite resilient in various environments. Kind of like a budget G-Shock but the battery lasts 10 years!

Just a moment, thank you!

Trouble with the metric system? Try our converter:

cm = 0' 0" or 0" and

feet inches = 0 cm

Officially, the watch isn't shock resistant, and you don't get the mineral glass and other fancy stuff. The display is recessed to prevent scratches, and we've banged up these things without worries or issues. If you break this thing in an accident, chances are it would have broken a more expensive watch as well.

The suffix 5AVEF means the color code (5 means Brown, A means a normal positive display), and VEF for Export / European version. The various regions are most often just packaged a bit differently, and the manual language varies.

Features

These are features that may require clarification and may not be found on all models:

World Time

This model has no automation and allows you to set a secondary time down to the minutes.

Countdown Timer with a Timer

Casio heard we like timers, so they put a timer in their timer. The range is up to 24 hours with 1-second increments. You can make the countdown repeat automatically, and you can set a start time within 24 hours. These are not the most common features.

Stopwatch

Stopwatch with 1/100th precision up to 24 hours. Displays elapsed time and can be toggled for split times and 1st and 2nd places.

The split time in Casio watches means freezing the elapsed time on the screen while the stopwatch keeps running in the background. E.G. if you run 1:36 laps with a steady pace, your first split time will be 1:36, the second one 3:12, then 4:48, and so on.

Multi Alarm Clock / Hourly Signals

You can set hourly time signals on or off, and the watch has a multitude of alarms: daily alarm, daily alarm for one month, alarm at a specified date, and a monthly alarm. You can save up to five alarms and one of them can be set for snoozing.

Calendar to the year 2099

You don't have to check the date setting of this watch each month: leap years, Februaries, and Biblical events are covered for a very long time – automagically.

Backlight

This watch has two amber-colored LEDs for viewing in the dark. The Afterglow is fixed to 1.5 seconds. Higher-end models of today have something they call the Super Illuminati but this one is just fine.

Made by Casio

The first invention by Tadao Kashio was the yubiwa pipe: a ring that allows you to smoke a cigarette hands-free and all the way to the end. Tobacco was expensive in war-torn Japan (because WWII), and people had their hands full of work, so this was exactly what the market wanted. With the profits from the pipe, Kashio could fund the development of Casio's first electro-mechanical calculator.

High intelligence and flair for business combined with this sort of diligence could not have led to anything but the success Casio has achieved. The company has been the first mover too many times to mention. Let's skip the list this time.

Being the first mover has not sacrificed quality: many people still use Casio wristwatches they bought 40 years ago, and they have gained the trust of NASA, numerous special (and non-special) forces, law enforcement, paramedics, and so on. Another long list. The TL;DR is that all of these are damn good, pick any one you like!
