Obviously there are many chronograph watches with white dial out there, but to find a watch that captures the same style is quite difficult. The Casio Classic Collection includes some the most iconic watches the company has ever made. Popular today due to their retro appeal, refreshingly simple practicality, and understated styling, the Casio Classic Collection of timepieces are truly timeless and appeal to an almost uniquely broad range of people; proof that some things genuinely never go out of style.

The Casio Collection A500WEA-1EF watch is a digital timepiece with a retro twist. Its square-shaped silver-coloured case is made of stainless steel, ensuring durability and resistance to corrosion. The classic digital display provides timekeeping functions including hour, minute, second, day and date, along with an alarm and stopwatch, all easily accessible through the watch's buttons. Legendary Japanese electronics company Casio is loved for its range of innovative and reliable watches. Casio offers both analogue and digital watches for men and women in a variety of styles and colours, perfect for everyday wear, sportswear and more adventurous activities. The watch is water-resistant up to 50 metres, making it suitable for swimming and other water-related activities. The band is made of stainless steel, matching the case, and features a fold-over clasp with safety. The precision quartz movement ensures accurate timekeeping. It is actually more meant to look like a diver's style watch instead of a sporty dress watch, and therefor doesn't have the Tachymeter indicators that the Seiko 7A28 has. It is not suitable for diving but only swimming and snorkelling. The 'Helium Valve' (top left of the case) doesn't work as a Helium Valve. With a case diameter of 43mm it's bigger than the Seiko, which measures 37mm excl crown.Defined by its retro appeal, this Casio Classic Collection Retro Square Dial Alarm Chronograph Mens Watch A500WEA-1EF 33mm is underpinned by legendary Casio watchmaking expertise. At the top left of the case is the ever present Casio logo. The digital display is powered by a quartz LCD movement. At the top of the display is a world time map showing you the times all around the world, with a day, date and month display just below. The display is protected by a silver stainless steel case with a silver stainless steel bracelet fastened using a fold over deployment.

If desired, the button sound can be turned off with the Mode button. Once deactivated, the watch will stop beeping when switching from one function to another. Set alarms or countdown timer remain active after button sound is turned off. Complete the short form that accompanies your product. Please ensure that you complete all of the sections, as this will guarantee the timely processing of your return/exchange. Granted, setting the different time zones and daylight saving, and calendar won’t be straightforward. The included manual explains the procedures well, and sure you will find plenty of YouTube videos explaining how to set this specific model up. Soon you will learn the functions and make the most of this watch’s functionality. The lugs are actually more far apart on the new model compared to the original Tuna, due to a new case design. The watch CAN be worn on a NATO strap, if you prefer a more comfortable strap than the rubber strap. The perfect watch for athletes: Elapsed time, split time and total time are measured with an accuracy of one hundredth of a second. The measuring capacity reaches up to 24 hours.Accurate measurement of elapsed time with the touch of a button. The fraction indicates the unit of measurement, while the time figures indicate the maximum measurements of time. These Casio Data Bank models still have a vintage vibe, although more 1980s than 1970s. The Casio cases are made of resin (compared to the more sturdy stainless steel case of the Seiko). Very cool is that you can create and see a (scrolling) text in the top part of the screen of the DB-520, that's quite a fun Bond-style gadget. This Casio watch is small, the case measuring 38,8mm long x 27,8mm x 8,1mm high, but not that much smaller than the Seiko H357 which is slightly wider and higher, but not much longer.

The band of the Timex is very similar to the Seiko band. The Timex has a stainless steel just like the Seiko. Overall this Timex is a good 1980s Bond watch alternative, without being an exact copy. Another popular Bond Seiko watch, but not a digital one, is worn by James Bond (Roger Moore) in A View To A Kill (1985). A Seiko 7A28-7020 Quartz Chronograph watch can be briefly spotted in the pre-title sequence when Bond is getting comfortable in the submarine. The watch has a white dial with three subdials, a stainless steel case and bracelet, chronometer and tachymeter indicators. It doesn't have a date, although a similar model from Seiko was available with date window. You might not have noticed the watch before, but it is actually seen quite frequently during the long scene, because Bond wears it on the outside of his yellow diving suit. Unfortunately the watch doesn't get a good close-up shot in the movie. For all those who demand precision: the countdown timers are very useful when remembering special or periodic events, since they emit an acoustic signal at the programmed moment. They can be configured by seconds or up to an hour in advance. It features World Time, Stop Watch, Alarm, LED Light with Afterglow. It always shows your local time in the 'analog' round part (top left of the watch face) and can display a second time the main part.You get a 3 years warranty-certificate for your new timepiece. If there is any problem with the mechanism, this certificate garanties a 100 % protection- meaning we take care of the technical integrity inbetween these 3 years. An alternative option from a different brand is the Bulova Marine Star Quartz 96B255. This six hand calendar chronograph watch in stainless steel has a nice silver-tone finish and white dial, with three subdials. The most affordable and similar alternative currently on the market is the 2019 Seiko Prospex SNE498 Solar Tuna, with a smaller case, solar powered quartz movement, and many other different design details. There are many differences between the orginal Golden Tuna watch and the new Solar Tuna, but it's a great alternative watch from the same brand. The construction of the case is less impressive with a plastic shroud compared to the original ceramic-coated steel shroud and titanium body, but the watch is actually very nice and well made. The bezel for example looks great, sharp lines, and the lume is very strong. If you require any further information relating to the Delivery service used, please call us at +44 (0)20 8208 9567.
