The guy who said "I can't take you seriously as a watch enthusiast" is an absolute tool. That is literally the definition of an enthusiast, someone who will gladly wear a £3000 Breitling one day and then a £15 Casio the next
Right from the beginning what attracted me to this channel was the recognition that relatively inexpensive watches like Casio's can be incredibly cool. Oh and bravo on the intro.
These watches got me to school, got me to work on time, met friends, caught the bus. I recently got an F91w for less than I'd spent on lunch and it's light weight and comfortable. I am reminded why I always loved it so much
First watch was a F91W, in fact, pretty much everyone in my year at shool had one. It was the watch to have. We'd all set the alarm for 3:05pm each day to ensure the teacher knew it was hometime! Amazing watch, amazing memories.
One of the best watch videos you have ever done! Love the brand concept, simple, accurate, highly functional, highly accurate, affordable and cost efficient. These are attributes that the more expensive watch brands simply don't offer or provide!
Said it before and will say it again, The Urban Gentry channel is back to its original greatness! So glad to see you being more yourself and free TGV! 🥰
I missed this format so much! And what better way to get started than with the legendary A168! Currently wearing it as this is my stay-at-home watch. Cheers TGV!
Being someone who was a kid in the 70s and 80s, these Casios are a major nostalgia trip. Love everyone of them. Thanks for the great video once again TGV!
My collection is small. Hamilton, seiko, Tissott being slightly under 1000.00 being my most expensive. That said I have many G Shock tough solar as well as a Casio 212 world time. When not at work, the Casio watches get the most wear time for sure. That said you keep doing what you do. Your channel brings great information to so many of us, you can’t be discouraged by one persons opinion.
You and Jody from Just One More Watch have turned me into a Casio lover! I just purchased an AW158 for myself for Christmas and got my wife an A700W which was her first digital watch she has ever owned. Love Casio. I now have about 16 of them in my collection with more to come! Thank you for ALL you do for the watch community!
Can't believe it did it. I just ordered one online after watching this video. Sheesh. I had the predecessor to this waaay back in the early 80s (can't remember which reference). i loved that watch back then. Never thought I'd ever own one again. Nice video, dude.
TGV, Thank you so much for all you do for the community. I originally got into fashion and in turn fashion watches. It's those fashion watches that got me interested in the hobby and brought me to your channel. Your channel has done such a great job of educating me in horology and the intricacies of watches. Casio has such an interesting history and it's my go-to watch brand.
Glad to have you back! You don’t shy away from anything, from Omega to Casio. Appreciate that sir! Value and history can be found at all price levels. Also like your renewed focus on non watch subjects.
Best intros in the business, mate. Easily the best watch enthusiast channel on TH-cam, whenever I'm looking for a review on a particular watch I always check your channel first. Been watching since 2016, when I acquired my first F-91W.
Informed and classy response to the watch snobs. Well done TGV 👏 I'm almost certain that Anthony Edwards wore a silver Casio as Goose in Top Gun. It could hang just fine with the Porsche Design Orfina
My two watches: Rolex Explorer II and Casio AE1200 World timer. In fact I have a whole bunch of Casios. I bought a Casio when I put the Rolex in for a service which unfortunately because of the lockdown ended up taking 6 months. When the Rolex came back I found it very difficult to part ways with the Casio so that it is now an occasional watch with the Rolex. So different but so good at what each of them do. Watch manufacturers at the top of their game. Great video, best wishes from Sydney Australia
I'm so happy that you've decided to take that leap of faith, driven by your passion to purchase this remarkable wrist watch. Thank you for telling it like it is!
I own the A-158WA and I adore it. It brings back so many memories, and it’s such a lovely comfortable timepiece. You can’t have a watch collection whithout a Casio in it. Great video as always TGV!
I coveted a Casio watch in the late 70's when I was in middle school. Especially the calculator version. I still do a bit, it brings back wonderful memories like hanging out in arcades in Times Sqare NYC playing Centipede and Joust in the mid 80's.
That intro was poppin! Loving it! And mannnnn those macro shots really just made me fall in love with that gold Casio... And your right TGV, these styles are getting more popular with the younger generation... I was so surprised when one of my friends, who never used to wear watches, started wearing the silver one. I asked him about it and he said he just like the style.
I love Casio, my everyday is a dw5600 or mdv106, I work in a warehouse job for a plumbing and piping supplier and i bicycle commute to work year round so I need something durable and can take a beating, being slammed around loading pipe, climbing racks, driving forklifts, exposed to weather, my other favs are my orients, the ray 2 and bambino when I get the chance to wear them
Great review as usual…the *Back to the Future* bit hints at your channel's revamp rather nicely. Wore all sorts of digi Casios way back, including a pair of calculator models (whose multiple functions I actually used…somehow). Haven't had any digital watch in decades, but recently picked up a Casio Pro-Trek which I like a lot: versatile and rugged, but without all the excess hirsuteness of the bigger G-Shock numbers. Looking forward to Pt.2. Keep up the work, and good luck on your new business venture.
Funny how that viewer mentioned it 2:27. I actually spent a lot less time on your channel during your collaberation with Watchbox, mainly because those watches featured did not meet my budget, and my everyday lifestyle. I wouldnt dare to wear a 20k FPJ (I love their watches OMG!) on job time, but a solid Sinn U2 or a beater SKX would seem to be more realistic and practical, at least for me personally. I am glad that I no longer need to wait for my next tax return to come in, in order to buy a watch featured here. Keep it basic, keep up the good work, onwards, and upwards, ciao.
TGV, you've been on fire the last couple of weeks! Great videos, nice diverse range of watches. I love my Casio A168WA-1 and my G-SHOCK Rangeman GW-9400, and intend to always have a Casio in the collection
Omg .. tgv destroyed that comment with such class and style .. i love it :D.. and i love my casios the same as my junghans .. especially my casio oceanus OC-106 .. great watch :D..
I don't like to be picky, but the crystal is acrylic. Not mineral. And they're both water resistant to 3bar(30m). Not 5bar(50m). Otherwise, great! Love my A158 to pieces!
Great work as usual .... amazing intro (Oh and right on with Casio. You really make a difference by giving the appropriate space and respect onto amazing brands like Casio. From Tron to trusty G-shock. Highly undervalued tech!) WOULD YOU EVER REVIEW A TAG HEUER Connected WATCH? Happy to send one your way for review.
There is also a f-105 which is pretty much a f-91w with a full back lit light and basically the same size as the a158,it's also more water resistant than the f-91w👍. Thanks again for the great watch reviews,I really enjoy them👍👍
There are actually some porn scenes from the 70s, 80s, and later where porn stars wear Casio watches. When there are no clothes on except maybe a watch and sneakers the watch really stands out. Lol
it's so nice to see another watch video. you do such great videos. You have taught me so much about watches and gave me a new hobby where everyday i'm watching video's, checking ebay and amazon. Because of you i went from wearing and owning one watch at a time to i have thirteen in my collection now. Thanks and keep up the great work.
I have a 217H that I really love the size of. Not as small as the F91W but still smallish, light weight, and just the right size for me so I have just ordered the 168 as a companion. Great review!
I have both and they are very good. I've been wearing versions with the plastic bands for a long time, think I'm gonna pick my 168 for a daily watch. Takes me back a few years.
How can a watch snob doesn't appreciate the true giants like Casio? Even people with collection of Rolex, Omega, AP, VC, will find their way to sneak Casio into their collection..and sometimes it's what differ you from watch snob to a watch enthusiast, it's not about pricepoint anymore 😂
Thank you for again showing that iconic watches can be had at any price point! I own the Casio CA53w calculator watch and the F84w (slightly smaller JDM version of the F91w) and they are the most comfortable watches in my collection. As you say, it's having a movie star on your wrist! Also, sick intro today. Stay classy, TGV!
I literally just wore my Casio A158W golfing! I love how low profile and unobtrusive it is. I also love how you can love both affordable and luxury watches. Both have their merits. Cheers from Canada!
I bought an A168 off eBay at a reduced price since it had a small nick in the case. Funny enough, this watch is THE most accurate watch I own. When it’s on my wrist it’s running almost perfect time. Off the wrist it gains not even a second per month. Don’t know how Casio can produce something that’s near perfect accuracy for $8 bucks.
That intro is one of the best intros I've seen in a long time and I agree with the statement that people should respect Casio more cuz like you said they have innovated for a long time and quick question I know this is very long but does having a smartwatch in your collection make you less of a watch collector
Casio will always be my favorite watch brand. Timex makes some nice retro digitals and the classic Triathlon is an iconic watch. Affordable, stylish and durable watches are nothing to look down your nose at. I have a collection of 10 watches and most are cheaper digitals, along with my grandpas old Seiko analog and an Invicta (?).
Such a great video! Last year I bought a silver AW168 and it's my favorite watch (I only have other two watches and they are Casios). Thanks to that little guy my interest in watches grew and I discovered your channel, so thank you very much, TGV for this nostalgia trip.
Sorry to rain on your parade, TGV, but I believe that AW168 you got there is a knock-off, not the real deal, hence no drilled lugs and the pinkish text. I could be wrong if the ones made in Malaysia are slightly different, but there's a comparison on TH-cam (can't share link or my comment gets blocked, but do look it up) Nevertheless, great review! Keep it up! :)
@@theurbangentry The 36mm Omega seamaster Co-axial, I've wanted a seamaster forever and I feel the 36mm will suit my 6.5inch wrists better than the 41mm version.
I find it funny that watch snobs would poo poo Casio. Horology is awesome, regardless of brands. If the gold Casio is good enough for Idris Elba, it’s good enough for all watch enthusiasts. Fantastic vid as always
You're right. At first I thought this watch is too small for my 7" wrist, but if Idris Elba is wearing it, heck I can also wear it. I may not be able to pull it off the way he did, but still. lol
Wow such a joy watching your video. The a158w design is so clean and timeless, I’ll pick one up bearing just how much fun it will bring me. Thanks TGV!
Great video. But truly, I don't understand the hate the older led backlight receives. I am able to easily read the time with it in the dark, and it also provides that vintage electronica vibe, with a faint instrument panel like glow. I find the EL to be rather "dull", and also, it relatively softens the display and increases the watch thickness due to the addition of an extra layer of EL sandwich display.
Intro was fire...love Casio...a friend told me he was surprised that I own a G-SHOCK square because of my other watches...I explained to him the horological significance...he got it...hw wasn’t being snobbish....just didn’t know....love your content....
You did such an amazing job tribute for the watches. From a casio collector. I’m really thankful for this video. Thank you. For the watch snobs that think a Casio collector deserves no respect… I have a Rolly Datejust too. I just find the Rolex is all I need in the Mechanical department. The low maintenance and cost on the Casio line makes for a fun approachable collection.
recently rediscovered my old late 8os g-shock from the bottom of a work locker and due to your previous vids on the duoro and f-91w i have added 5 casio models to the collection and love the brand ...a great gift option as well. Love these introspective vids , good sir . Please keep them coming!
Love my Royale and Databank... essentials as part of my collection. Sometimes I just need something only they can provide. Thanks, as ever, for reminding us!
Great video! I picked up an A168 for $15 on an Amazon one day sale after watching this and it has become one of my favorite watches to wear. So light on the wrist I forget I have it one, and it gets a lot of compliments for its retro 80's looks. I have Rolex and Tudor watches which I love, but also a dozen Casio watches in my collection. Nothing can touch Casio at this price range.
It's great to see you back at your best & looking relaxed & much happier & more comfortable than you had been in recent months. & I totally agree that a true watch enthusiast has respect for casio Great casio comparison video. 👌
A person who looks down on Casio as a whole is a Watch Snob -- not a Watch Enthusiast.
The guy who said "I can't take you seriously as a watch enthusiast" is an absolute tool. That is literally the definition of an enthusiast, someone who will gladly wear a £3000 Breitling one day and then a £15 Casio the next
Well said
This intro was a masterpiece TGV

My Casio AD says if I wash his car one more time this weekend he’ll put me on the waiting list for one of these
That sounds like a fair arrangement
Fantastic intro TVG, will always have a soft spot for Casio after my brother first got one some years back and it got me into watchers.
One of the best watch videos you have ever done! Love the brand concept, simple, accurate, highly functional, highly accurate, affordable and cost efficient. These are attributes that the more expensive watch brands simply don't offer or provide!
I love this channel. By the way, Casio is KASHI-O, KASHI=樫=Oak(tree) O= 尾=tail. Good luck and Thanks. from Japan.

I have two of these , a silver and gold version . Put them on 18mm barton quick release canvas straps . Great grab n go watch !
They both on the same color?
Which one is better?
Hey TGV I personally love that you are promoting cheaper watches that everyone with a passion for watches can enjoy. Keep up the great videos!!!

TGV, you did it again! Love the intro and I'm glad you are back to the old school style. Watch box are great but, you're better in this style.
The intro is amazing and you have smoked the comment guy.

Really enjoyed this one TGV, a great return to form

Bought a Seiko SNXS79 as my work watch but end up wearing my AW168 half the time! The AW168 has so much charm and is so light on the wrist.
I love Casio....I got a couple G shocks and the Silver A158 and Gun metal A168. Casio's make some of the best watches.
I really love how you addressed the comment on Casio. Thanks for your interesting presentation.

Fantastic the video and that intro was superb! I love it when you do Casio videos, I own 5 and have another on the way. Great watches :D
That intro was art
Nice video, TGV. It seems the end of Urban Gentry “as we know it” has revived Urban Gentry as we had loved it.
The 1980s were the peak of human history. Everything before and after has been downhill.
Yeah everyone fried their brains on cocaine
What an amazing video from start to finish. I too love Casio watches. Wonderful value for money timepieces.
So Cool and so retro.👍
While I prefer the electroluminescent display of the 168 I'll take the 158 every time. I prefer the smaller, thinner size.
This intro was off the chain 🤙
Really liking the recent content TGV, speaks to us "regular joes" and I like it, can't wait to see the new 40mm 5KX's when you review them!
158-168, both good watches. Back light on 168 is far better. Good review, thanks
The Casio a158 feels much more comfortable to wear, so if a light is not important I would definitely recommend the a158.
I literally just wore my Casio A158W golfing! I love how low profile and unobtrusive it is. I also love how you can love both affordable and luxury watches. Both have their merits. Cheers from Canada!

And this is why i really enjoy your reviews. You show as much respect to an affordable Casio as to any high horology piece.
Sorry to rain on your parade, TGV, but I believe that AW168 you got there is a knock-off, not the real deal, hence no drilled lugs and the pinkish text. I could be wrong if the ones made in Malaysia are slightly different, but there's a comparison on TH-cam (can't share link or my comment gets blocked, but do look it up) Nevertheless, great review! Keep it up! :)
Loving intro! Really enjoying the channel! Keep up the positivity! Hopefully I'll be buying my first luxury watch on the next few months!
Thank you Joe, congrats in advance, may I ask what you are considering?

Love the return to classic Urban Gentry episodes - It seems like donkeys since they aired.
Great video! I picked up an A168 for $15 on an Amazon one day sale after watching this and it has become one of my favorite watches to wear. So light on the wrist I forget I have it one, and it gets a lot of compliments for its retro 80's looks. I have Rolex and Tudor watches which I love, but also a dozen Casio watches in my collection. Nothing can touch Casio at this price range.
Don't know why i waited so long to bag one of these. Went with the gold AW159 instead but tbh you just can't go wrong with any of these releases.
It's great to see you back at your best & looking relaxed & much happier & more comfortable than you had been in recent months. & I totally agree that a true watch enthusiast has respect for casio
Great casio comparison video. 👌
Just got one on Amazon for $18. Thanks.
