Casio Sport Watch A158

Product Information

I really wanted the newer style Casio A159-WA style bracelet, not the old style “clasp” bracelet version of this watch. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. Given the fact that this version has a silver case, it also makes the colours seem more vibrant against the black background. In reality, these both look pretty cool and retro; some of the best looking digital watches out there in my book, especially for the cost. Hailed an iconic model from the 1980s, the A158WA-1 is the perfect addition to your day-to-day accessories with its simple yet classic design.

A really simple design with a digital display, a silver resin case with a thin stainless-steel strap and the world’s worst backlight. The bracelet makes a great substitute for another bracelet on another watch, moving that watch closer to looking like the real thing. Kashio Tadao established Tokio Casio in 1957, a company known for mass producing calculators for the first time which, up until then, were machines assembled on top of tables. The Japanese enterprise that began as a modest family project, has gained a foothold in the consumer market. Casio’s iconic vintage collection provides a great collection of watches that bring back all the nostalgia of owning one back in the 80’s.Come join the discussion about watch collections, displays, watch winders, accessories, classifieds, and more! Apparently - both of these watches are shipped with the “older style” full scissor size clasp, even though the box is labeled as “A159-WA”. All in all this little watch is worth every penny and you won't be dissapointed even if you have collection of more expensive watches! We welcome all manufacturers including Casio G-Shock, OMEGA, Rolex, Breitling, Rolex and Tudor, Seiko, Grand Seiko and others. One interesting point to note is the contrast between the brushed appearance of the bracelet and the polished look of the case.

With a stainless steel band and a stainless steel watch face that is aglow with individuality and looks great on the street fashion scene.When the case and band are manufactured in different locations is a sign of a fake Casio, according to this YouTube video. My everyday watch is a159wa I like the clasp personally and the bracelet is very comfortable to me, others remark it pulls their hairs out but not on me luckily, btw this watch is so neat even at jewelers the watch guys notice it and remark how neat they are. If this is of importance to you, it may be worth considering the newer, albeit slightly larger, Casio A168W instead; which has much improved luminescence. Also I suspect in many cases it is part and parcel of more serious crime and the fakes are just a way of moving or laundering cash and covering up paper trials.
