Got mine today and I must admit I like the style and design of this watch.

Had this watch for 4 years - it's awesome. Bought specifically for the countdown timer, which I use every day.

Could you tell me how long resisted that original strap? Damage fast or last longer than others Casio resin straps?

3233 is the base module/board the watch firmware was developed for. The 02 (or 1-02 in this case) is the configuration revision specific for this particular module and depends on the jumper positions on the board that turn different functions on and off.

Looks like a solid alternative to the w800h. Nice job with the video.

In fact, it's based on the same board. And after the jumper mod (disconnect the "timer disable" jumper and solder the 5-alarm jumper) the test screen on the W-800H will show the same 3233-1-02 config revision, as on the F-201WA.

Very well done review especially comparing it to the other 2. Not too small not too big, just nice 👍🏻

Cool watch, i wish it was smaller though and had a bit better backlight. I prefer the w202, almost same functionality, smaller, better backlight. I like the way the f201 looks though and i like the resin buttons on the side.

I never had the W202, but looks like it's similar to B640, awesome model!

I do like the lower water resistance which helps make the alarm volume louder.

Did you ever notice that the modern digital watches aren't nearly as accurate as they were back in the early 1980's? An early 80's Casio would keep perfect time (+/-3 sec) for a whole year, not the new ones, not even close. Apparently that's because the government didn't want such precise timing systems to be readily available to the public. Super-precise timing systems are an essential component in weapons systems and they didn't want just anyone to have access to them.

Thanks for the video. Great little watch. One thing it is missing - it could display the current time in the upper right square, particularly in the timer and dual time functions. In both of these modes, that upper right square is empty.

If only Casio make a watch with w800h shape and water resistance, with f201 functions, that would be awesome :D

I really wish those metal wire guards for g shocks were available for the cheaper casios, I live nowhere near the ocean so water resistant is fine but I don't think it would last long in the pallet shop where I work. I really like this LCD layout though so probably gonna bite the bullet and order a 5600.

3 bar equals 30 meters, so of course you can shower and swim with it. Don't give into that fear the watch industry wants to make you believe that only 20bar/200 m watches are suitable for that.

i think this is kinda the predecessor of w96h, slightly less boxy shape, plastic buttons. but i think this watch suffers the same problem with w96h, it's the look. you either go super retro like 5600 or something inspired by retro look like w800h, or go retro-futuristic like databanks. this watch just look cheap to me, now with w96h with the same price and extra row of date, less value too.
