🐏 RAM the Like Button 👍 to help us grow! 📈 Do you think the A500W is Elegant, or Blingy? Thoughts on the Silver Clasp? 🤔💬 Comment Below! 👇

@Dr_Doe 4 месяца назад

The best colour scheme for this watch. Hence why i bought it for my daughter, sometime last year. This scratch like crazy. But she wore it daily, even go swimming. Great watch 👍🏼

@goatreviews 4 месяца назад

Cheers, Doc! 🙏 I tend to agree - though the other colours are very cool too 😁 Oh man, I hope I don’t get too many obvious scratches! But so far this thing is definitely a “smudge magnet”!

@johnrb9397 4 месяца назад

Elegant or blingy? 🤔 Depending on how you accessorise it could be both 😅. Wear it on the Volleyball court and it might just tip it into the blingy camp 😎.

@goatreviews 4 месяца назад

I think yours is the most logical take so far, John! 👌 It really has the flexibility to be both, right? Hahaha, that’s exactly what I did with it the last 2 nights… I guess that made it bling on the courts! 😂 Today, I dressed it up with a button up 😎

@johnrb9397 4 месяца назад

You’re so organised! Nice way to store parts and tools. And for the man that has everything, a corner cutter 😂

@goatreviews 4 месяца назад

Cheers, John! I’m feeling real good about the tidy setup. That drawer above is for my now-neatly-organised backlog of watches! 😁👌 Haha, man it seems so random and obscure, right? I actually got it for another project - making bookmarks out of laminated trading cards… I might spin up a Short for it sometime! 🙏🔖

@johnrb9397 4 месяца назад

The extra wrist presence is due to the extra weight from the precious metal 🤩 24k 🤩

@goatreviews 4 месяца назад

LOL - Exactly! 😂 Everyone knows how heavy gold is. Man, I should smelt the bracelet down and make a profit on this one 🤩💭

@grantvxr83 2 месяца назад

Love it. Just wish the chrome/gold coating the use didn't scratch so easily.

@goatreviews 2 месяца назад

Me too, Grant! 🙏 It's a stunner - But I wish it were more resilient. A metal case (and maybe a mineral glass lens) would be nice 🤩

@johnrb9397 4 месяца назад

My arm hairs were quivering looking at those bracelets. You’re a brave man 💪

@goatreviews 4 месяца назад

Hahaha 😝 It’s definitely intimidating for the arm hairs 💪 So far, no pulls EXCEPT when I loosened the strap for volleyball! 🏐

@MichaelSmith-mw3ub 4 месяца назад

That watch is brighter than my future.

@goatreviews 4 месяца назад

LOL - Cheers Mike 😂🙏

@Gigachad-hb7ji 4 месяца назад

Looking classy!😎 Totally nailing the "Old Money" aesthetic!

@goatreviews 4 месяца назад

“Classy”! 👌 Love it. “Old money”! I’ll take it 😎👴🤣

@arcadian7496 4 месяца назад

Nice catch, mate! Elegant in shirt and blingy in polos 😅 .. I have the silver with blue map. Just love it! Cheers!

@goatreviews 4 месяца назад

Cheers, Arcadian! 🙏 That’s a great way to describe it. It depends, right? Oh - I’ve been wearing it mostly with T-Shirts, I guess that makes it Bling 😜 I’m loving it too 🤩 Awesome colour choice, my friend! 👌

@DevNugget 4 месяца назад

I'm a little late for this one, but incredible video as always! Definitely adding this watch to my wish-list. I'd opt for the silver gray matte version though I think it looks really cool😎

@goatreviews 4 месяца назад

Thanks for your feedback, DevNugget! Much appreciated. 🙏 Awesome - it’s a really cool model to own! Good stuff - that’s a very versatile colourway! More flexible than the gold 😁

@GinsuSher 4 месяца назад

Hey man, not sure if you noticed it already or something... But this watch is actually closer to the ae1200 in features. The only difference is probably the lack of a faux analogue clock display. edit: I should have watched the whole vid before commenting XD lol There's also a sanda copy of this watch and last I checked, it actually has a metal alloy case as opposed to the resin case on the original (casio a500w). The model name is Sanda 500. There's also a Skmei copy with Skmei 1338 (body/case is resin on this one though).

@goatreviews 4 месяца назад

Haha, not to worry Ginsu! 😂🙏 It sure is very close in features. Almost the same, right?! 😁👌 Oh wow, I’ll have to look in to this Sanda copy! Thank you for sharing this. 🙏 I’ve already got a SKMEI 1338 on the way! 😉

@OakesDesign 4 месяца назад

It's the only gold reference I own! Love it! I would say it's retro classy!

@goatreviews 4 месяца назад

Good on you, Colin! 🙌 I’m loving this gold badboy too! 🤩 That’s a perfect way to describe it! “Retro Classy” 😎 Love it! 👌

@SamsWatchReview 4 месяца назад

Great review! Cool looking model, but I'm not sure about the color, looks blingy to me, sorry :D Might be perfectly suitable to wear with a brown batik shirt (traditional cloth from Indonesia) for formal occasions. But for now, I'm very happy with the grey/silver one :)

@goatreviews 4 месяца назад

That means a lot to me, Sam! 😁 So a vote for “Blingy”! No need to apologise my friend, our opinions are all equally valid👌 Oh cool, yes I could imagine it working nicely in that outfit 😎 Awesome - The Silver/Grey is a very versatile piece, and I’m glad you’re enjoying it! Thanks so much for weighing in! 🙏

@vaclav_fejt Месяц назад

I'm not into gold, and especially not into gilt, since it looks worse when worn. So instead of gold/green/white, my champion is silver/blue/yellow.

@goatreviews Месяц назад

Fair call, Václav! 👌 That sounds logical to me. Nice! Those are some awesome colours 🤩

@purnamasari6721 2 месяца назад

Hey goat can you review the Casio f 105w

@goatreviews 2 месяца назад

Hi Purnama! 👋 Thanks for the suggestion. 🙏 No problem - I might include this in my next #WatchOfTheWeek community poll 😉

@alexandremoreira599 4 месяца назад

what is the number of the model inside of the bracelet on you wrist check on the begining?

@goatreviews 4 месяца назад

Great question, Alexandre! 🙏 The model number inside the strap reads “S-1397DV”, and you might be able to catch a glimpse of it at 5:09 to verify 😉

@mar.carpintero 4 месяца назад

Es elegante si no lo combinas con demasiadas joyas doradas! 😅 Me gustó la referencia al Mr. Burns... 😂 A500 es un hermoso reloj. Tengo una copia marca Skmei (1338), pero no es lo mismo (el LCD es pésimo).

@goatreviews 4 месяца назад

Good call! I’ll keep that in mind. 😁 Haha, glad you enjoyed that reference 😂 It sure is beautiful. Oh man! You know I was going to buy the SKMEI 1338 too for an “Attack of the Clones” episode with this watch, but I might actually hold off if it’s that bad 😅 Thanks for weighing in, Mar! 🙏

@WyvernDotRed 4 месяца назад

To me it looks blingy, but I generally do not like gold coloured pieces or even accents so that's just me. 1:48 It's most likely plated and not painted. They probably didn't plate the sides of the buckle to preserve the tolerances, but it does look cheap. So the colouring is as strong as the top layer of metal, deep scratches which get through this will show the silver underneath. 3:26 These thin folded link bracelets will bend to your wrist when wearing them more. 3:54 The general rule for bracelet or strap tightness is being able to jam two fingertips under it while it's on. More of the fingers and it will move about, less and it will irritate your skin over time. 7:42 The databank watches also have this demo feature. And all Casios have the LCD test, which is useful for seeing what characters the display has. Instead of adding a screen-protector, you can polish away scratches in acrylic or plastic afterwards with PolyWatch or toothpaste. I haven't experimented with removing scratches in this way yet, but it seems fairly successful in most other videos. Personally I generally do not use screen-protectors on most devices as this often decreases screen contrast.

@goatreviews 4 месяца назад

Fair call! It’s all down to personal preference, right? 1:48 Interesting - that makes a lot more sense than painting it! It would also explain that silver patch under the clasp where the pieces must have been touching during the plating process. Hoping I don’t get any deep scratches! 😁🤞 3:26 Awesome. I look forward to this! 3:54 I really appreciated this tip - I had to make an on-the-fly adjustment at Volleyball last night, and your advice worked well. 👌 7:42 Cool! Oh yes, I should have showed off the LCD test! It looks cool on the world map segments. Thanks for the tip! Funnily enough I too stumbled into this advice somewhere very recently - I’d like to try out the toothpaste method. I also have a small polishing/dremel tool on the way. That being said, I’d MUCH rather prevent the lens damage entirely with a protector! 😄 I haven’t noticed any issues with contrast on any of my watches so far. Good optical clarity! 👌 Thanks so much for weighing in, RedWyvern! 🙏

@WyvernDotRed 4 месяца назад

@@goatreviews, an important note on the crystal polishing, you have to use just your fingers, optionally with a microfibre cloth. For an even result, rub in broad-ish circles without applying much pressure. If you do want to use polishing wheels, they must be larger than dremel size, ~5cm minimum diameter to avoid creating gauges.

@goatreviews 4 месяца назад

@@WyvernDotRed Roger that! 🫡 In that case, I reckon I’d need to buy some new polishing head attachments. The default sizes seem pretty small in the photos of the kit! Should be arriving soon. Thanks for the useful advice, as always! 🙏

Casio A168 or Apple watch??

@goatreviews 4 месяца назад

Hi Iftikar! Are these suggestions for the next #WatchOfTheWeek ? I’ve got an announcement in my next video that will cover this topic 😉 I’m still keen to get the A168 on my wrist sometime soon, too! 👌 Thanks for the suggestions 🙏

@dobiloru 4 месяца назад

this watch is fine for like 40-50 $ however in central eu u mostly paying 100$ for this one, i was vry dissapointed holding it first time in my hand,yes the design is stunning and awesome but the quality is not there for 100$, the material the glas everything is not build for longterm, i already can get a m5610 for 100$ most of the time, makes this one just rly overpriced

@goatreviews 4 месяца назад

Man, you’re on to it! 👌 I don’t think it should cost as much as it does - don’t get me wrong it’s SUPER COOL but it seems there’s a decent markup on the manufacturing costs for this one! 😉 You’re absolutely right, and the M5610U is a G-Shock built to last a lifetime 😁

@paulmcnamara2908 4 месяца назад

Sorry buddy I don't like the gold one! Bought my wife the Skmei version of this as it was only $12 but it and the metal strap are a cool gun metal colour! All though the map on the Skmei is non functional it just randomly changes on its own! When I was younger had the original black one, worth shed loads now!

@goatreviews 4 месяца назад

All good, Paul! 👌 No need to apologise - your opinion is totally valid, and one that is shared by many others. I used to be against gold watches but I’m glad to give one a try and mix up the collection - really enjoying it so far 😁 Oh man… another commenter was just talking about the SKMEI version being a flop! I was considering getting the SKMEI version to compare, but I might rethink it since the map isn’t functional 😂 We’ll see! The gun metal colour sounds super cool though 🤩 Ah, might that be the W-50U? Fratellini just mentioned below that he too, had that version as a kid 🤩 Thanks for weighing in! 🙏

@paulmcnamara2908 4 месяца назад

@goatreviews yeah realised the map on the Skmei is mimicking the map demo mode but permanently. My aftermarket metal 5600 bezal set came today its not black as ordered it's gunmetal/titanium grey so unsure whether to keep or return it!

@goatreviews 4 месяца назад

@@paulmcnamara2908 Oh man! Well, at least it does SOMETHING instead of remaining completely blank I guess. 🤷🏻‍♂️ Aww man! If it’s not the colour you ordered and you aren’t happy with it, you should be able to return it without issue. Did you get this one from AliExpress? Also is this the same one you mentioned not being the right size on Facebook? I’ll be getting to those messages shortly

@paulmcnamara2908 4 месяца назад

@goatreviews got it from ebay other than colour it's exactly as pictured and described plus as only paid like $37 it would cost half that to return it from the UK! Just going to fit it and make do! It's quite nice actually though!

@goatreviews 4 месяца назад

@@paulmcnamara2908 I see. Have just seen your other comment that you’ve found a way to make it work!! 🤩 Well done my man, proud of the effort 🙏

@deips74 4 месяца назад

This fake gold is terrible, I don't like it at all. It looks like a Casio “SKMEI” edition. As a kid I had the Casio W-50U World Time, the module and the display layout were better than this A500W in my opinion.

@goatreviews 4 месяца назад

Fair call, Fratellini! 👌 I can see what you’re talking about - and it’s definitely not for everyone. In fact, it seems quite devisive among the community! I might have to spin up a Community Poll to see how everyone votes 🗳️ 😁 Oh man, I just looked up the W-50U - Wow! 🤩 What a cool layout, and map. Thanks for sharing that! 🙏
