Title: Great Workout Watch at a Great Price!
Review: I ordered this watch for my running workouts and it works GREAT! You can pick if you want a 12 hour clock or a 24 hour one (I chose the 24 hour). It has a stopwatch built in, as well as an alarm system-but I don't really use that. The biggest reason I got this was because of the fact that it has a stopwatch and it's water resistant. I've ran in a few rainstorms and this thing hasn't skipped a beat! I know it has a distance feature on it as well, but I really haven't tried it out yet. It's a really cute watch and can take quite a beating. The stopwatch is the feature that I use the most and it works really well! You can even switch between modes while the stopwatch is running and it won't stop or rest-something I use a lot because I usually go running before work and have to make sure that I have plenty of time to make it back home so I can get ready for my shift.However, if you're looking for a watch that actually DOES track your distance-you might want to go with the Garmin. If you're like me and manually map out your routes and don't have the money for a $100 GPS watch-this is the way to go!

Title: Great product
Review: I loved this watch. It took some time to get here but the product is great. I use it for swimming and it works great since it is water resistant. Recommended.

Title: A very nice watch for an athlete
Review: I bought the Casio STR300 to replace a ten year old Timex Ironman that was recently stolen. I went to the Casio because the entry level Ironman no longer does splits in the stop watch mode. Over all I've found the Casio to be a worthy replacement for keeping track of my time when I run, swim or bike.The good:First and foremost, sixty split times! That's a lot of splits, but essential for someone like me that is presently training for a triathlon by swimming laps in a pool.Second, one thing that I really like about the Casio over and above my old Timex is the way that after an hour passes by in the stop watch mode, I don't lose the hundredths of a second from the face of the watch. Once my old Timex would hit the one hour mark, the hundredths of a second numbers would disappear to make room for an hours column. Casio avoids this by putting the hours above the minutes so that it doesn't have to shift the minutes over to make room. I think is a very clever solution.Third, the price, this watch is packed with features for less than the entry level Timex Ironman. Granted, most of the features are lost on me. I'm hearing impaired so I don't really care about the five alarms. Nor do I use the countdown mode. But I don't have a whole lot of money and this watch is worth every penny that I paid for it.The bad:The build quality of this watch seems inferior to the Timex Ironman series. Maybe it just feels different and will last just as long. I won't know that until ten years down the line. If this Casio is still going, then I'll change my mind on this point.I find the button to trigger a split difficult to press. With my old Timex, it was pretty easy to hit the split button while doing a flip-kick at the end of the pool to turn around. With this thing, I miss more often than not. Often times I have to stop swimming and hit the button a few times to get it. This may be user error on my part and perhaps given enough time I will learn to hit the button in just the right way. I've only had this problem underwater. When running or cycling, hitting the button is pretty easy. If the button were as easy to hit as my old Timex was, I'd probably have given this watch 5 starts.

Title: Super Durable and Is Insanely Water Resistant
Review: I have had this watch for 3 years and I have worn it in the ocean and 12 feet deep pools and it has stayed fine the whole time. This watch does not get beat up easily!!! I found this watch great for night time when I wanted to know if I should go to bed or stay up later and during the day I am CONSTANTLY looking at it to see what time it is. I would highly recommend this watch to literally anyone. The date is super easy to set if you are fairly tech savy and even if you aren't the instructions are great! I also found this great for school in terms of timers, stop watch for fitness, and time in general. Whenever I don't have it on ( I almost always have this on ) I get so angry that I don't know the time 24/7. If you are looking for a long lasting durable watch that works great, this watch is the way to go!!!

Review: Tengo dos años con este reloj y es demasiado bueno y resistente, lo uso a diario no salgo sin él desde que me salvó de partirme la muñeca, estaba cerrando una reja pesada y se vino de golpe y el impacto lo recibió el reloj y aun funciona después de eso.

Title: Great Price, Look, and Quality
Review: I absolutely love this watch. I live an active lifestyle, and my watch has definitely taken a few beatings. However, it is very durable and only has a couple small scratches. Personally, I enjoy a larger display and this provides just that. I can just glance at it when I am running or taking a water break and it is easy to read. I am not really a fan of the color pink (or purple-pinkish on mine) but it looks great with the black and provides a pop of color that I really enjoy. It is very easy to adjust the size and the material is very comfortable. I wear my watch a little big and don't have to worry about it rubbing too much or just being uncomfortable in general. I really like the fact that it is water resistant so I don't have to worry about it getting wet if it starts raining or I am doing dishes (unlike most smart watches). I purchased mine in July of 2015 and the battery still works (which is great). For the price that you pay, you get a quality watch with a stylish look and great durability.

Review: I love this watch so far, it works as a basic digital watch and the style is rad. I can see the time in bright sun wearing polarized sunglasses. Nightlight works well. The only suggestion would be to make the time a bit darker of a pink?

Review: Excellent compact watch with nice violet color. Comfortable strap the whole watch and strap or streamlined, so they are easily worn under most open cuff shirts. Be patient as you work through the instruction sheet came with it, because it does have a small learning curve. But after you count the my with the functions that you personally need,, I have found it to be reliable and a good investment, especially for the low price.
