Wal-Marts all across the country have had various Casio watches on clearance for the past few months. Not every Wal-Mart seem to have the same clearances, so it's hit or miss when you go but I have acquired probably close to 20 new Casio watches since at cheap prices, the highest being $15. A lot of these I don't care for that much, but my favorite digital watch complication is the hourly chime, so the prices are low enough to just simply add more hourly chimes to the rotation. I now have close to 30 going off at once.

I was at a rural Wal-Mart the other day and I saw something I have since fell in love with but had no idea I even wanted.

One of the most desirable Casio watches out right now is the F-91W.

That is the OG colorway. This watch has kind of become a meme in the community, but I never cared for it, until I saw this beauty for just $5(down from 21).

Not my wrist, but it is the same watch.

I kind get it now. After owning this one I have become a fan of the looks. It's super lightweight and has all the basic features you'd want in a digital watch. I also actually never knew it had a backlight. It's the worst backlight I have ever used, but it has one. Ultimately it's lightweight, durable, cheap(prices are creeping up and it IS now a meme so prices will continue to rise. The original price of $21 would have turned me off of buying it even if I would spend that after owning it, and stylish in kind of a dorky way.

So, I finally own one. And I get it! I love it so much I haven't taken it off hardly since I got it 3 days ago.

Well, it ain't a Grand Seiko Spring Drive, but i'll take it!

I wore a watch all the time when I was a kid. I won a Timex Ironman watch like this one in a school contest. It was dope.

Anyone remember that one guy who used to say that anyone who doesn't wear a watch that costs at least $200 is poor and pathetic

I can imagine like at least 3 different people here that would have said that
