The only real difference I can surmise myself is durability and aesthetics. The AE-1200 has better water resistance (100m) and a much more informed dial thanks to the faux analog portion. In addition it has a 10 year battery life. The A500W only has a (presumed) 30m of water resistance and a 3 year battery life but has a slightly smaller case.
Yep, I have them both. My wife has a G-shock Casioak solar in bright yellow lol. Absolutely love them all. The AE1200, I wear it with a Vario fitted leather strap which is ultra comfortable. And for the A500W, mine is the retro gold version. Both are so light weight that I can barely tell I'm wearing a watch. They are very cool.
I prefer & own the A500w. The reasons I prefer it are: 1) It's just the right size. I don't see the point of large watches. I think they look ungainly on the wrist. My wrist is just under 7" and the A500w fits perfectly. It doesn't overwhelm my wrist like the AE1200WH. 2) I love straight lines, angles and geometry and to my eye the A500w just looks better. I prefer the simplicity of the design. 3) The A500w has everything I need in my watch. 4) I can wear the A500w as a dress watch as well as a casual watch. I don't think the AE1200WH makes a good dress watch. 5) The world time is useful to me and I like the larger world map on the A500w.
Hello watching since long time . Actually i was about to purchase a f91w which was my first crush since i was kid it was like a craze in 2010 something . Actually I want to purchase f91w but after seeing multiple videos I want to purchase ae1200 which is 2400rs in inr 29$ which is not affordable for me still . Basically i just watched a f91w video and i remember that i have saw that watch somewhere in my childhood. Now i want to say that should i purchase a first copy of ae1200 300rs 3$ which is cheap or wait for 4 years after my education so i can afford it now i can't . Or should I start saving money for it or purchase duplicate one that's my question . I know it last at least 10 years please clear my doubt

I have both these and both unique in there own way...I do tend to wear the 500 slightly more ..ive a 7.5 wrist and they look fine ...
Thanks Kevin! I was hoping to see a nice comparison between these 2 models :D
Thanks! The size and how they wear is really different despite the functionalities being really similar.
thank you for putting them side by side ! ! !

Just ordered Casio a 168 with a Tiffany color
I have A500 only. As I see AE1200 has non official update kit with metal case and sapphire glass.

I prefer the A500w. It looks more stylish and elegant.
I prefer the A500W.

Sağdaki A500 modeli biraz büyük yapsalardı iade etmek zorunda kalmazdım … görüntüsü tam bir retro fakat kolda bir fındık gibi duruyor 😂
Blimey 6 inch wrist .that's tiny I'm 8.5 just getting the Casio 1200 I do hope the band is big enough .
On the A500 you can see how much slack is left, and on the AE1200 I removed quite a few links.
Thanks .it should fit . Great vids
8.5 inch wrist is above average.
howu machi.&
The AE1200WH MSRP is $43, the resin band versions are $30. The A500W is around $47 on Amazon here in the US.
Good comparison, I wasn't aware of the a500 model. I like the "more dressed up" look.! 👍👍
