One thing you got wrong is the 168 does have a 7 year battery I got this watch from amazon I read the manual and it Does have 7 year one NOT 3 years sooooooo make an other short run through video and get it right ok or else ............. 😅lol just joking 😅 big fan of your show but seriously it has a 7 year battery so it's scores a17 tied with the other one, love your show keep it coming👍
Oops, thanks for pointing out the wrong part. I was also surprised. How come I thought it was 3 years and not 7 years? I've checked my other videos with the A168 series, and they mention 7 years. Now please let me cry in shame in the corner... and let me pin this comment as a correction point. Update: The battery life of A168W is 7 years, so it deserves 1 more point, which makes it have the same points as A158W and A159W.
Lol your funny, no problem I just ordered the armatron rubic, gets here tomorrow I have enough Casio and Timex, have a very good new year and the rest of this year thank you for the quick response that's so cool 😎👍
Awesome, that's the A158's competitor but with a stainless steel case, right? I'm eyeing for that model too; I've had it in my Amazon cart for a while (this brand is hard to find in my country). Thanks for stopping by, have a great year too :)
B640 wining the comparison is well deserved, you can feel that it's a modern watch thanks to the functions, high quality display and visibility of bigger digits, I don't find it too tick on the wrist.the other watches have modules from the 1990s
The 700 model (china) lags behind by 10 seconds in a month. The 159 model (Japan) is 2 seconds behind. The 700 model has a narrower diameter, less height, and LED light. It is more convenient to use without removing it. 700 is ahead except for the problem of lagging behind
I think B640 is by far the best. I returned my A158 for it. The backlight is bright and button is on the right side (instead of left like the others) and the watch face is cleaner with a less wordy face. Just wish it was thinner like you pointed out.
I have that variant of the A700, plus variations of the rest: the A163, A168-WEMB, and B640 in black with the negative display. My view on those is as follows: FUNCTIONALITY: the B640 is far superior to the rest, with the same features as the others but on top: a repeatable countdown timer, programmable alarm, and 5 bar water resistance. It also has a decent backlight. ERGONOMICS: the A168 in WEMB form is not only beautiful to look at, but it also has the best backlight of the bunch and a mesh bracelet that, combined with its low weight make it extremely comfortable to wear. AESTHETICS: if you're after something dressy on a budget, the A700 is the one to go for. It's also the slimmest by far at just over 6mm. PRICE: the A163 wins here, being available for under £20 it's a lot of watch for the money, provided you don't care about the abysmal backlight.
Thanks for sharing. By the way, unfortunately Casio don't market the A163 in my country. It looks really cool/retro with the crystal design that blends with the case. Have a great day :)
This just convinced me to get the A700. I almost bought the A168 specifically for the light, but the thinness of the A700 with a great backlight wins 👍 Thanks for a great video.
Great comparison man!! Thank you so much. I love your content. I have a158 and just bought a168 because it looks so much cooler. By the way i want to buy all the watch in the video 😂. Keep it up! Waiting for the next video
I have the B640 with the resin strap, it was uncomfortable to say the least. Tried to adjust it to fit my wrist but ends up being tighter to not my liking. I feel like that variant is supposed to be for the ladies. Never manage to buy the steel bracelet version because it was more expensive, but I bet the bracelet version is more comfortable than the resin strap.
Yes, the battery life rating is not 3, but 7 years. It was mentioned in another comment (and added to the video description) about 2 months ago. Thank you for watching :)
A159 продержится 7 лет (а-то и все 10) из расчёта использовании подсветки ПО 1 СЕКУНДЕ в день. B640 - 3 года из расчёта использовании подсветки по 3.5 СЕКУНДЫ в день. Очевидно, если использовать подсветку также по 1 секунде в день, то и B640 проживёт все 7-10 лет. Нужно было ставить оценки исходя из типа батареи (CR2016 = 2, CR1616 = 1), а не из времени работы
Bro I want to buy the b640 model, but same users say it looks too small. What do you think? Also, can you see the dial of the watch easily in daylight? I wanted to ask these because I will buy it online. Have a nice day.
These models are similar in size, and all have good legibility in daylight. If you prefer larger model with steel bracelet, try check the B650 instead. or the metal bracelet version of W218 and W219.
About the looks, it's up to the user, The a168 looks like classic 80s and the b640 more like a classic 70s watch :) But for durability, the B640 has a better water resistance level.

Amazing watches. Thanks for the comparison! 🙏
I love my A700w, and will be opening the A158 and A168 for review shortly 🤩
Awesome, my two favorite watches :D
Looking forward for the review :)
Really nice comparison, thank you so much! I think I'll go with the A168 because of the light, price and design.
Great choice, that's my favourite too :)
@@SamsWatchReview A168WGG-1ADF Gunmetal Grey with positive display indeed !
@@SamsWatchReviewfor bigger wrist which one would you pick? I love 168 but looks to small for my wrist 😢
The B640 has the same functions as the G-Shock 5600. A very good watch. I changed the strap for a nylon one. It is comfortable and practical.
Nice ideia!
Sounds like an interesting idea to change the strap, thank you for sharing :)
It's for women...
God damn !!! Do you really use it in public
Just ordered a a158 it’s my first watch, can’t wait
Awesome, great choice :)

In term of siempre which is bigger, I have a big wrist but i love this old vintage casios.😢
@@kakaroto3419Glad thing my wrist are so small , so I can only wear these kinda dials and normal analog round dials looks weird on me
i like the 700 size and look but i kinda want japanese made

Great choice. It's also the only one in the group that has a flash alert and countdown timer, which is going to be very useful when needed.
A159W is made in Japan. That's my choice, because I'm old school like that.
Great choice.
That's the type of reviews I'm looking for
Thank you for watching. But kindly also note that I wrongly mentioned the battery life of the A168 (it is mentioned in the pinned comment).

Does a168 can water resist
I have the B640 with the resin strap, it was uncomfortable to say the least. Tried to adjust it to fit my wrist but ends up being tighter to not my liking. I feel like that variant is supposed to be for the ladies. Never manage to buy the steel bracelet version because it was more expensive, but I bet the bracelet version is more comfortable than the resin strap.
Thanks for sharing. Is it the W202 ? I haven't tried that one yet, but it's interesting to hear that.
Have a great day :)
As someone who has two b640, one a168 and an a700 I can say that b640 has a nicer quality, low light and water resistance.
Yes indeed, and also it has the countdown timer.
what do you mean by "low light"?
Dose a168 can water resist
You might have been unjust for A168. It has the best backlight and battery life (according to Casio web site) is 7 years not 3.
Yes, the battery life rating is not 3, but 7 years. It was mentioned in another comment (and added to the video description) about 2 months ago. Thank you for watching :)

Thanks for the input :)
They are all good, it's difficult to choose.
Indeed. The best way is to collect them all :D
On the A700 strap you have another video on changing the bracelet strap to a different clasp. I can't find the strap A159.
The strap lug size is 18mm :)
Does these watches suit nearly to 7 inch wrist ?

@@SamsWatchReview I had previously thought of buying a B650 and today I watched your review video and ordered it from the official distributor.
Confused between a168 and b640
I want good looks and durable
Pls suggest
About the looks, it's up to the user, The a168 looks like classic 80s and the b640 more like a classic 70s watch :)
But for durability, the B640 has a better water resistance level.
Casio dw 5600 tough solar or Casio AE 1200 or A168 which one to buy? Please help I m so confused
G5600, AE1200, A168, all good choices 😊
Is that an aftermarket bracelet for the A158? I haven't seen one with that clasp before.
That one is the A159W, and it came with the fold over clasp.
I'm undecided between A168 and B640 model. Which one should I buy?
And, Do all models of the A168 have the same backlighting?
It depends on your preference. Overall, the A168 has a simpler menu and cool backlight, while the B640 has more features and an older retro look.
Tipe w800 sayangnya blm ada versi steelnya
Versi miripnya yang A178, cuman sayangnya WR saja :)
what is the battery 🔋 replacement cost ?
It will vary for different places.
But by the way for these models, replacing the battery by ourselves is not difficult :)
What is the thickness of 168 strap?
A168 bracelet thickness is 1.8mm :)
@@SamsWatchReview Thank You for the reply...
You're welcome:)
Casio A168w and b640 which one is best to buy?😅
Both are great. The A168 is more colorful and has cool EL backlight. While the B640 has more features and better WR.

Thought a159 is fake? It?s a158
There's A158 and also A159. They're using the same module.
For comparison, check this video out :)

158 made in china 159 made in japan
👍👍
Thanks for watching 👍
PLEASE NOTE, COMFORT is NOT equal to THICKNESS. soooo misleading
B640 or A700?
Both are great.
If you prefer a slimmer watch, the A700. But for WR and timer, the B640
