The DW 290 watch is aboslutely great! This should be called the Monster Casio watch. I had my first one 21 years ago as a present, being exposed to a various tough conditions during these years and it is still ticking with only minor scratches on the screen, two battery replacements and two strap replacements! Just purchased my second one after finding it is still being produced by Casio. Excellent timepiece / masterpiece and a great review of it. Thanks!
Do you find the electro luminescence backlight to be of same color and intensity? I see mine as a darker shade of blue while the newer ones have a hint of green
Got my DW 290 today. Got it from a Japanese website. I was inspired to look for this watch after watching your video of DW 290. Love this watch. Thank you for your very informative and detailed videos.
Great video. Just received my DW-290 today and was able to set the watch within minutes. Thank you. I didn't know about the other less-known functions. Awesome!
Now I'm watching your video and I just don't understand why people are making TH-cam videos of this watch they are not showing you the functions how they work how to set it all they talk about is Tom Cruise you're the only one that is very specific and going through the date the time the month the year you're the only one it's doing this this is what TH-cam's about exactly what you're doing you're teaching and showing people how to watch functions nobody else is doing that on here on this watch I really appreciate everything you do on TH-cam thank you so much you're fantastic when it comes to these watches 👍🏆👍
Great tutorial. Thanks. I lost mine 2 years ago during a jog session when i arrived home and realized it was no longer on my wrist. Since then i really missed the watch. Kept on buying other casio including the g-shock but non of them have such attraction such as the Dw 290. Yesterday i finally ordered the watch again from local seller and cant wait to have it back on my wrist 😊
Hello my friend you give the best videos on these watches these goofy people in here talking about mission impossible who cares talk about the watch you're the only one that does a good review on these watches I think it's a great watch I love it thank you for sharing this video
I have been collecting G shocks for a while, personally, some of the functions between A and B button are still very confusing to me, it's impressive how you can remember them
How do I invert day and months? (so that day is displayed on left and months on right) I am in UK. We usually write day, months, year... Apart from that and the green writing "Illuminator water resistant 200m..." rubbing off within a months no issues with the watch.
Hi thanks for another great review I have a mint condition one from the early 1990's 93 or 94 I think with the 1219 module with Japan m on the case back.
i purchased this watch for about 2 years. never really used and played. keep it in my bag as a backup watch in case it rains heavily and i wearing a watch with below 100m Water Resistance
What I need, is how to replace the battery for this watch. I think about broke the movement trying to rip the battery out of it today. All I'm seeing on TH-cam, is battery replacements for G-Shocks which aren't the same.
No worries, after that you just Google repeated years for 2030 and you put whatever is offered between 1995 and 2029 and I think the calendar should then be correct for another 7 years
Sorry for the late response. I imagine that by the time 2030 comes out there will be numerous sites that can calculate those repeated years, so more than a solution will come. Thanks for the help. You have an awesome channel!
Have you opened the caseback and does the older module have a trimmer screw? I understand (but not 100%) that Casio removed the trimmer in the later module. Thank you.
This review of the DW-290 was the best I've ever seen. The functions of the 290 and 5600 are just amazing. It seems Casio did a step back with the GW-M5610.
You have a great teaching style. Straightforward, well-paced and comprehensive presentation. Great stuff.

Thanks for watching and a great story

@@soring5880 correct. The newer version has a hint of green when it comes to the luminescene backlight.
it isnt while it is a good watch there are better ones tht look much better and more simple but yet still complex monitors
Except now it's almost as expensive as the base gshock square.
Got my DW 290 today. Got it from a Japanese website. I was inspired to look for this watch after watching your video of DW 290. Love this watch. Thank you for your very informative and detailed videos.
Congrats 😊👍
Kindly share the website name
Great video. Just received my DW-290 today and was able to set the watch within minutes. Thank you. I didn't know about the other less-known functions. Awesome!
even if one knows about those functions, try to remember how to access them without written material..
Now I'm watching your video and I just don't understand why people are making TH-cam videos of this watch they are not showing you the functions how they work how to set it all they talk about is Tom Cruise you're the only one that is very specific and going through the date the time the month the year you're the only one it's doing this this is what TH-cam's about exactly what you're doing you're teaching and showing people how to watch functions nobody else is doing that on here on this watch I really appreciate everything you do on TH-cam thank you so much you're fantastic when it comes to these watches 👍🏆👍

Thanks 😊
Really loving this watch! Thank you for always giving us great videos! So happy I subscribed to your channel!
Thanks 😊
Thank you for the video! Really helpful! 👍
Awesome watch. I have an original one with the silver stripe from 1996.
Excellent video, thanks for the FULL TUTORIAL, it was really usefull.
The history of DW290 start with the amazing Casio DW 340 WR300M , and after that Casio made the W740 WR100 and finally Casio made the famous DW290.
Very clear tutorial. Thanks bro!
This watch is just so awesome to not be my main watch .
My two favorite Casio watches are the DW-290 and the W-740.
Thank you you helped me set my watch
Really good and usefull video, thank u a lot
People watching this in 2040 directly in their minds via a neuro link: OK
Thank you. For everything. Good video.
Great instructional video thank you.👍
I have been collecting G shocks for a while, personally, some of the functions between A and B button are still very confusing to me, it's impressive how you can remember them
Any way to mute the beep when pressing buttons? Thanks. Other Casio can do that. Great video.
Can the DW 290 module be transferred to a gshock case and band? If so, what series of gshock case?
hi sir is it possible to turn off beep sound everytime you push button?
How do I invert day and months? (so that day is displayed on left and months on right) I am in UK. We usually write day, months, year... Apart from that and the green writing "Illuminator water resistant 200m..." rubbing off within a months no issues with the watch.
Nice watch.
Well explained!
Thanks man
Hi thanks for another great review I have a mint condition one from the early 1990's 93 or 94 I think with the 1219 module with Japan m on the case back.
Thanks a lot, i love this watch 😗
You didn't show us the flash alert actually working? That's fine though, just wanted to have a look. Good video as always.
So is there no DST setting and you just have to change the time manually every time?
I bought this watch today and I just realised that mine came with 3231 module.
Great watch once you set it....setting Casios pia, but great values.
Great review. But they have only one alarm?
A very detailed review. Is it possible to turn off the beep when pressing the mode button?
Unfortunately no
Anyone know how to make the alarm sound/chime work again!??
Tq masters 👍👍
m big fan of u n g shock watches bro.
nice video as u.
Great video! Are you going to do any videos on timex models that rival digital casios?
If I manage to get my hands on one
i purchased this watch for about 2 years. never really used and played. keep it in my bag as a backup watch in case it rains heavily and i wearing a watch with below 100m Water Resistance
Hello the year setup of my casio DW-290 only set to 39 and then jump to 95, why?
Because its programed until the year 2039.
@@WatchGeek Obviously, they are not yet programmed alone ... I think the answer is on the side of the module number, thanks!
How do I reset the alarm to zero?
No telling me how to do the hourly chime !?!?!
Hi. Is this watch has no autolight function?
Yap
So unlike most Casio watches, there’s no way to silence the beep with every button push? 😢
just buy this awesome watch :)
Do you still like it?
Put this on your wrist, it is more than a thousand words!
What I need, is how to replace the battery for this watch. I think about broke the movement trying to rip the battery out of it today. All I'm seeing on TH-cam, is battery replacements for G-Shocks which aren't the same.
I have an older DW-290 (the 1219 module) and the calendar only lasts until 2029.
No worries, after that you just Google repeated years for 2030 and you put whatever is offered between 1995 and 2029 and I think the calendar should then be correct for another 7 years
Sorry for the late response. I imagine that by the time 2030 comes out there will be numerous sites that can calculate those repeated years, so more than a solution will come. Thanks for the help. You have an awesome channel!
You already have sites with tables of repeated years just Google repeated calendar
Have you opened the caseback and does the older module have a trimmer screw? I understand (but not 100%) that Casio removed the trimmer in the later module. Thank you.

5610 > 5600
👍✌
