Casio AE-1500WH-2AVEF Blue Resin Strap Watch - W17480

Ref. AE-1500WH-2AVEF

The AE-1500WH sits in Casio's long tradition of no-nonsense digital tools — watches built to do a great deal without asking anything in return. The ten-year battery life is the headline that shapes everything else: this is a watch you set up once and then forget about, which is precisely what that kind of utility demands. At 54.4 × 51.2mm it wears large and makes no attempt to hide it, though 57 grams keeps the presence lighter than the footprint suggests. Five independent alarms, a stopwatch accurate to a hundredth of a second, a countdown timer that repeats automatically, world time across two zones and a calendar that runs to 2099 sit behind a black dial that the amber backlight makes readable in the dark without fuss. The resin case and strap take the knocks that a watch used this actively will inevitably collect.
