This watch is built dirt-cheap.  I expected that much from a $18 watch.  I was still disappointed, because I was under the impression Casio was above this.  Honestly, if it broke before the month is over, it would not surprise me any.

While I didn't like the cheap build, I'm not gonna lie, I really liked the look of this watch, especially considering the price.  It is also the easiest of the analog watches to tell time.

I did come close to giving this watch a one star.  After I had already placed the order for the watch, I noticed some one star reviews noting the defective calendar dial.  I didn't worry much, considering how few one star reviews this watch actually had on Amazon.  I got mine delivered just today, and indeed, my 'day' setting was stuck & would not move.  As I set everything else, I kept playing with it.  Turning the crown slow, fast, slow while pressuring the crown in-out-up-down, you get the idea.  Behold, it did start to show some movement, so I kept playing with it.

After I spun that crown couple hundred times or so, really fast, the dial became unstuck.  It is functioning perfectly now.

P.S.  Watch I received is "JAPAN MOV'T", "CASED IN CHINA".

***UPDATE*** 2/8/13

I really like this watch.  It is the cheapest watch I own, but I wear this one almost everyday.  It has performed perfectly, and it has been highly accurate as well.  I got it in September, it's February now.  If it's still this good next September, I'm gonna have to give it five stars.

***UPDATE2*** 9/27/13

As promised, I'm bumping it from 3 to 5 stars.  Not that I've put it thru a torture test, but it has performed perfectly as a daily wear watch thru some exposure to water(never submerged though), and plenty of tossing & bumping around.  I got more than my money's worth.

***UPDATE3*** 12/8/14

Still performing perfectly, even after 2+ years.  Keeps very accurate time, too.  My first impression of this watch was dead wrong.

***FINAL UPDATE*** 3/12/15

I originally purchased this watch knowing that its design borrowed heavily from the Luminox Navy SEAL watch.  I finally bought that Luminox couple of months ago when I misplaced this Casio.  I've found the Casio since, but I no longer wear it for obvious reasons, so this would be the last update of my review.  I guess I used this watch for nearly 2.5 years, and other than the defective calendar dial I wrestled with at the start, it's been 100% problem free.  Even the band/strap's still in perfect shape, and is powered by the original battery it came with.  Well done, Casio.  :)
