    Casios are great, still have a couple simple ones. Reliable and affordable. Absolutely loved the timer option - 2 pushes left bottom button, 1 time right bottom one, 15 minutes rice timer is started in a second and without unlocking the phone :)

    To me it did look kinda cool at first, I agree, kinda complex, almost like a large detailed chronograph. But then, one of the reasons to buy a wristwatch was to avoid looking at the cellphone to see the time. So eventually, the reality hit and it turned out I am so used to large numbers to be hours(from childhood apparently), it’s a habit, an expectation. And those are hard to change. In a way, I gave up coolness for utility :) Thank you for the kind words!
