Casio needs to implement that beautiful light that SKMEI provides. I have used SKMEI for more than 1.5 years and the only problem was its build quality. Even G-shock has some serious light issues that should not be there for the price tag of $100.
Yes, backligtht effect of Skmei watches is very good.
im thinking about swapping a SKMEI into a casio case
It consumes a lot more battery though.
Pro tip: if you live in a hot climate, get the steel band - it will be cooler on your wrist and not sweat. If you live in a cold climate, get the plastic band - it won't feel cold on your wrist when you put it on. If you live in a middle climate, get the steel band - more durable and more fun, and it only takes a minute for the band to warm up to your skin temp.
I have the AE-1200 in silver metal, but bought the 1382 in black metal just for a fun toy.
Really though, the best go to watch is one that is atomic radio synced and solar. It's too bad neither of these are either. With an atomic/solar, you know it's always right and never dead, you never have to replace batteries on it, and you can turn on all the features and use them without care because it solar recharges. On battery watches, you tend to leave everything off like alarms, stopwatch, etc to stretch out battery life as much as possible.
I prefer an atomic/solar over my smart watch any day of the week - you never have to fucking recharge it, ever, and it's hassle free.
i use mine as a daily driver and also to wake me up. Thanks to the 5 alarms you can set backup alarms, just in case you didn't wake up when you should. lol But yeah, if THIS model ever gets at least a solar version (no solar charging but solar support), i'd buy it in a heartbeat. Preferably with metal bracelet.
@@KRAFTWERK2K6 Casio is known for reducing the quality between solar vs. regular battery watches. The 5 alarms are loud because it has no filler in the case. I own 5 Casio G-Shock with solar. The extra protection reduces the alarm sound.
Or get the plastic one, a leather strap, or nylon NATO strap and adjust it in hot or cold weather. Or just rotate watches. They are $20 each. I've been wearing my gold bronze Casio World Time for over a week and I am really enjoy it more than 90% of any watch I ever owned in 30 years. 10% for sentimental watches and luxury ones.
@@user-pi6vz5hr3c Yeah at this price it's smarter to have different models for each purpose. It's not like these watches cost you 100+ bucks where you only have to rely on just one. That's the fun about these cheap digital quarz watches. You can get so many different styles, there's something for every flavor and every opportunity. I often switch between models when ever i feel like it because watches, as useful as they are (especially with different features) they can also count as fashion.
@@user-pi6vz5hr3c wow, does it? I wasn't aware of it but it makes sense. The little piezo buzzer can only be this loud if there's no protective shielding around it. Never had a G-Shock because almost all of the models are a little too chunky for my arm but going by your experience it's not really useful for daily alarms. Too bad :(
Very nice review with comparison.. Casio is clear winner.. But i have skmei from last six plus months.. It was flawless performing..
thanks for you feedback, as I mentioned Skmei is also good pieces
@@GedmisLaguna SMEI are trying to rip off Casio. Casio should sue them.
@@Revolver1981 these are homage to Casio, not copying so Casio can't do shit.
@@Revolver1981 LOL, casio does the same thing. Casio made this AE-1200WH Royale from the inspiration of James Bond watch(by Seiko). There are couple of watches from the enticer series that looks like rolex models. So No, they would not sue anyone. Fun fact: Even Seiko takes inspiration of its designs from swiss brands.
@@myke.p The Casio 1200whd looks nothing like the Seiko Watch you idiot. Stupid idiots who compared the two Watches came up with the nickname Casio Royale. Why don't you actually look at a picture of they two Watches? They look nothing like one another. The Casio 1200whd has a map on the screen, the Seiko doesn't. The only thing the two Watches have in common is an analogue clock on the left hand side of the screen. Casio were not thinking about the James Bond Watch when the designed the 1200whd. The public came up with the silly nickname Casio Royale. The Watches look nothing like each other.
Casio ♥️ AE-1200HW but steel bracelet edition
It's a matter of taste
No. The case is metal coated resin and wears out in time.
if only casio has the same luminous light with skmei.
I actually prefer the orange LED over tharsh EL backlight.
But it looks beautiful. Just buy one and check it. I'm using it. I like the amber led better. It looks much better in my opinion.
Buy Casio. For a few more bucks you get 10 atm, 10 year battery (i.e you don't need to open the watch) much better quality, 5 alarms, 49 cities time, a nice map, analogue watch. I have that version with green map and goldish display.
Yeah sometimes i just dont understand why create a cheap homage watch while the 'real one' is actually cheap aswell??
Probably because of the colour selection and sensation????
But back then almost buy myself a skmei before i realised the real thing.. love my Casio AE1200WH till now and not regret at all..
Sure Casio ...
For this price, buy the real deal. Thanks for this review!
thanks
The real deal is SKMEI? Most bang for the bugs....
Hi, nice review! But there is skmei 1382 which have more features than casio. But still, I think quality wise casio wins
Yes, Skmei 1382 has compass, world time and pedometer functions, bu also it costs from 20$
Quality is pretty close actually
Skmei is better surely? Unless you need 5 alarms and world time zones... I'd rather save 50% and have the much better EL backlight!! Plus the day readout is much larger also :)
The multiplex to drive the what 120 segments of the top left panel individually must be quite something on Casio. This module on original Casio can't be cheap. I wish actually this just one section was a full size watch!
Skmei just reused what IC they had at hand... but the case do be looking nice. I heard some people get Skmei to plant Casio innards into the case.
I am not the casio module fits perfectly
Where to buy Casio ? It's much more expensive than 20$
Check my links
6:15 Nice soup 👍😂
Skmei forever
Nice comparison, I hope there's more to come.
thanks for watching
Casio wins with 100m water resistant. These watch debates always end with that.
There's more SKMEI with same model, SKMEI 1382. itbhas pedometer and compass, the circle display as compass.
The analog LCD dial and orange LED light basically makes the Casio original the clear superior winner here. If Casio would sell the different colour variations EVERYWHERE, people wouldn't have to get the chinese knock offs. But hey, you can buy both and use the cases of the SKMEI ones.
The Casio is better, no question about it. Yet the Skmei backlight is really good also
Great analysation..😄😄 non biased review..after all the result is from an expert..😄👍
Skmei 1335 is best.
Just to add, Casio comes with longer warranty.
please review skmei 1373, it's a better version of skmei 1299 with extra function which is compass
Can't promise but maybe I'll get Skmei 1373 or 1382 or both of these for a review.
I'll wait for it, thanks
Random question. I've scratched the case on my ae1200 up a fair bit and was just going to get another, but the price here is now £40 (~$50) where the SKMEI is only £10. Would the *case* from the SKMEI fit the module and faceplate of the ae1200?
No, it won't fit
@@GedmisLaguna can confirm that AE1200 internals including faceplate DO fit inside an SKMEI 1335 - it's a bit of a squeeze but they 100% fit. The SKMEI internals won't fit in the Casio though.
I put a AE1300 in it instead and ordered a silver 1335 for the ae1200. tommartin.org/watch for pic.
@tee_m bro is this possible
@@-DoN555 YES - fits without any modification. I've got 10 AE1200s now after buying some damaged ones to do this exact mod to. It's a little bit of a squeeze but it does fit inside the SKMEI case and works 100%.
Can the bracelet be replaced ?
The difference in price is ridiculous: why should I consider to buy the fake ones?
100% agree
In the UK the Casio is around £30 v around £6 for the Skmei!
I thought should i buy a fake or the real deal well i bought the casio its not that expensive and its original
Does the casio module fit in the skmei case
Can'st say excatly for this model. But usualy casio modules do not fit to smkei homage analogs
No era mejor comparar con el Skmei 1382 ?
One drawback from SKMEI is the clock circle is just dummy not like Casio who actually perform as analog digital watch
it's juts a decoration
@@GedmisLaguna thats the drawback
For Casio the drawback is the night light not good like SKMEI
Now just wait for my SKMEI to arrive. 😁
@@baguskusumaloka ik its quite late to ask 😅but how's the watch?!
@@PrashantWadhwa watch is good for day, but not really good for night, the light is horrible. yes that "new tech" but i cant read the number clearly in many angle.
Does skmei 1299 have 24 hour stop watch?
yes
There´s a Skmei 1335 with compas. The SKMEI 1382.
yes
And comparisson with skmei 1373, if you have 😁...
Skmei 1373 and 1382 have compass, world time and pedometer functions. Don't have them at my place. Can't promise but maybe I'll get one or both of thses for a review.
Nice review...
Glad you liked it
digitec 3080 also similar mate, please review it
is there a patent on this casio watch model,i wonder.
Well, Chinese doen't care about patents, design copying.
maybe if they put ROLEX logo on the SKMEI watch logo,it would be more desirable,just kidding.have this casio AE-1200WH,nice lightweight watch
Well, we can call it "homage" ... It is not a replica anyway as they use own branding :)
Does Casio ae1200wh have scratch mirror resistance glass ?
No, it uses resin crystal. check here th-cam.com/video/l9ZnnbIH9lY/w-d-xo.html
No.
@@GedmisLaguna thank you so much . Too bad
@@brianfuller7691 thanks man.
ne ne, ne mano :)
Skemi winns...i think
The only problem with SKMEI: Bad viewing angle....
yes, Casio's viewing angle is better
@@GedmisLaguna some watches use more power. the more power it uses from a battery, the more blacker the LCD segment it gets, during the childhood, if I set lcd segment to total black, it's not visible, but when set to lightest, it is having more viewing angle. if all watches have the segment black option, then you can make custom viewing angle.
skmei 1335 for only 189 pesos hahaha almost 2 dollar wooww only
super price
Nice watch cooking 😂
yeah :)
