Casio Fishing Timer Quartz Watch with Resin Strap

I bought this because it reminded me of some of the Casio game and gadget watches from the 80s. I have the green version. Some of the pictures I have seen made the text on the watch look visually overwhelming and showed seams in the case that did not look great. The version I have looks much better in person. The watch is very light. The band is curved like a G-Shock band to absorb impacts. The negatives of the band is that it is fairly rigid. I do not find it to be uncomfortable but it is not the nicest. I do believe the lugs are 18mm and that the band could be replaced easily with a variety of bands available. The watch wears well on my 6.5" wrist and is smaller than many of Casio's offerings. It is very legible and the light while being a single LED lights the screen well enough to be seen in the dark and can be adjusted from 1-3 seconds. It also contributes to the vintage appeal of the design. You get a 10 year battery life which is amazing. The watch is very full featured. It is a little harder to set up initially but there are some very good tutorials available and once it is set up it is pretty maintenance free. The fishing feature uses moon phases and location to predict when fish will be more active. I really do not fish often but for a watch with 100m water resistance, a 10 year battery, backlight, alarms, stopwatch, multiple time zones and moon phase sub $40 this is a great piece. Being able to see when the fish are hungry is a cool bonus and when you use the stopwatch the fish have a party on the dial.

Great quality

This watch has been very durable. The fishing forecast feature is neat but not sure if it's accurate. Price is reasonable and looks and functions great.

I bought the Casio WS-1200H Fishing Timer from Amazon US for $34.99, but after adding around 40% import duty + delivery charges, the final price became quite expensive for me. Unfortunately, this model is not officially available in India, which makes importing the only option. Talking about the watch itself — this is a true Casio tool watch 🛠️. Built with a resin case and strap, it feels lightweight yet tough, perfect for rough daily use. The Fishing Timer feature 🎣 is unique and very useful for fishing enthusiasts, showing fish activity levels based on moon data 🌙. The digital display is clear, buttons are easy to press, and 100M water resistance 💦 makes it safe for rain, washing hands, and even swimming. Battery life is excellent, as expected from Casio 🔋. That said, after import costs, the value-for-money factor drops. At its original US price, it’s a no-brainer, but imported into India, it feels overpriced. 🔧 Technical Details ⌚ Model: Casio WS-1200H-1AVCF ⚙️ Movement: Quartz (Digital) 💦 Water Resistance: 100 meters 🎣 Fishing Timer: Yes (Fish activity indicator) 🌙 Moon Data: Yes ⏰ Functions: World Time 🌍 Countdown Timer ⏳ Stopwatch ⏱️ 5 Daily Alarms ⏰ LED Backlight 💡 🧱 Case & Strap: Resin 🔋 Battery Life: Approx. 10 years ✅ Pros Excellent Casio durability & reliability 💪 Very lightweight and comfortable on wrist Fishing Timer + Moon Phase is unique 🎣🌙 100M water resistant – worry-free daily use 💦 Long battery life (10 years) 🔋 Super affordable at original US price 💰 ❌ Cons Too expensive after import duty & shipping 😓 Not officially available in India 🇮🇳 Design looks basic & sporty, not premium Small display may feel cluttered to some users ⭐ Final Verdict A feature-rich digital tool watch with classic Casio toughness. Amazing value at $34.99, but import costs reduce the appeal. Still a great watch for outdoor lovers and fishing fans 🎣⌚.

This watch is fun. Having the moon and tides in a cheap little watch is super cool. I’m a fisherman and look forward to trying the fish timer aspect out, so I can’t speak on that yet. All in all, a comfortable and nice looking watch with a very low price tag for what it is.

I love to fish so anything fishing related I like and the long battery life is great, it’s kinda scratched it’s the perfect size for me. The display is great in the sun and the little light works good. I don’t take care of it at all and it still works so it’s pretty durable. I like the look of the watch with the moon phase and the fish levels.

Value for money

Ol' Pop is going to curse Casio when he has to figure out how to set the moon phase setting (the main thing that attracted me to this watch). Should have just bought a solar power citizen
