Otherwise rather a friend of watches and steel bands, I find this the actual temperatures of well over 30 ° but umkomfortabel.
You sweat, the steel strips are "slippery" on the wrist and also collects a lot of "dirt" between the band elements.
Given the fact that I am often even on construction sites go, it should be create something light and robust.
Tougher than G-Shock is actually barely - but it is hardly larger in dimensions at the G-Shock models.
Much larger than 40 mm in diameter and about 12 to 13 mm height I do not like watches - the G-Shock models with partly almost 50 mm diameter and 18 mm height all therefore have not been questioned.
Although these Casio AQ-S800W-1BVEF is no G-Shock, but with 42 mm diameter perfectly perfectly acceptable and just under 11 mm height.
On the wrist it obtrusive or out of proportion in any way and wears wonderfully light with 32 grams of weight.
It is also at "schwitzigem" wrist quite firmly by the wrist and easy to clean - in any case faster and easier than a steel strip, that one performance better and puts in an ultrasonic bath to clean the spaces.
The readability I using the analog display perfectly fine, the division on the dial also visually attractive.
The hands glow brighter and longer than the indexes - but the luminosity and - time is not very important to me at the clock.
The digital display is actually a bit small - but my feeling is not adversely - the current date can I read without any problems.
Alternatively, you can let the weekday show in German abbreviation. The other functions, such as alarm, stopwatch or time, I do not need basically.
With a density of 10 bar / 100 meters must not shy away from contact with water.
Overall, a recommended and cheap Casio clock with pleasant dimensions.
Ideally suited for rough work in the garden, at work or in their leisure time in general.
