I finally got influenced!

Partly due to Gary from "I Like Tech Watches" (his other YT channel) and Russell @MWC2020 "The Mad Watch Collector" (whose channel I claim to never watch but do anyway because I'm a hypocrite LOL), I succumbed to whatever model of Casio this is. It's not actually the W-218H though.

I have to admit that I also only bought it because it was cheap as chips on eBay (with another F-91W thrown in), but the YouTube reviews were in the back of my mind when I clicked the "Buy it now" button.

Yes, those guys were right about everything. It's another great Casio watch. If you don't have a Casio already, this is the one to buy. If you know someone without a watch, buy them one of these even if they don't want you to. Everyone should have one of these.

Same 3224 module as the enlarged F-91W (I don't remember the code number for that one either, F-217 maybe?) with the buttons in all the wrong places which I refused to buy, but actually very legible and extremely comfortable.

I've obviously got the standard "Argos" blue one, but will probably buy another one in army green later. I might even buy the camouflage version with 4 buttons from Skmei. There's a purple one and a black and orange by Casio too. Yeah, you know I'm going to buy all of them.

Oh, it's called an F-108WH. I had to take it off and look at the back to find out before putting the F-91W on instead.

Back to painting my house now.

I'm not a fan of the blocky pusher guards giving an asterisk appearance but all else seems right, especially offering case and band in a real color beyond funereal black.

At that price, you could get all the colors! Thanks for sharing.

I have the red version and this one, though I've temporarily misplaced the blue one somewhere. Nice watch, and just a little bigger than some of the resin Casio ones.

I have been trying to influence you for a long time now and still bashing my head against the wall. It is a rather great Casio, the wrist shot looks better than the stock photo by a lot. Does one need solar and multiband and all that stuff and the answer is no, not for that price. Well done on a great buy.
