Compact classic quartz electronic wrist watch from the CASIO Collection Retro series. They feature a distinctive vintage exterior design reminiscent of popular models from the 80s and 90s of the 20th century. They have a very compact size of a plastic case (width 34 cm, thickness 11 mm) made of high-quality hypoallergenic polymer. The bracelet is made of high-alloy stainless steel, equipped with a reliable clip-on clasp and a practical proprietary mechanism for quick length adjustment.

Thanks to this design, the Casio A-178WEA-1 watch fits perfectly on the wrist of any size. The classic black-and-white LCD electronic dial features bright LED backlighting and is protected by durable acrylic glass. Proprietary quartz electronics made in Japan, featuring high precision and excellent economy. A standard CR2025 lithium battery provides up to 10 years of operation (the resource depends on the intensity of backlight use). Alarm clock (5 varieties), stopwatch, timer, calendar and world time functions are supported. The watch has a Water Resistant 30m water resistance rating, which provides protection against splashing water and precipitation, but does not allow immersion in water (even for a short time).

Model overview based on user reviews  
The Casio A-178WEA-1 wristwatch is praised for its movement accuracy and reliable, long-lasting battery that can last up to 17 years. Users appreciate its comfortable and lightweight design, along with the good readability of the display, which includes features like date, day of the week, and world time. Despite its affordability, some users note that the plastic case and glass may not be as durable, and the watch's accuracy, while within specifications, could be improved. Over time, the coating on the case may wear off, affecting its appearance. The backlight is functional, making symbols discernible at night. Overall, it's considered a good, reliable watch for everyday use.

Before these, there were analog Casio watches with precision of +4 sec/month for the first, and +7 sec/month for the second. These advanced by 18 seconds per month. They met the specification, but the trend isn't promising)).

The backlight is normal, with one LED, but all symbols are quite discernible at night.
Comfortable, lightweight.
Date on the display.
Good display readability.
Long-lasting battery.
Low price.
Plastic case and glass. Would prefer better accuracy.
