Recommended: Casio A168

Standard version, other colors available

One of the most popular retro Casio models, the A168W offers a classic color scheme and the perfect 80s appearance for virtually no money. Unlike the similarly popular A158W, the A168 has a competent LED ‘Illuminator’ backlight, and a slightly bigger case, helping to somewhat flesh it out for medium and larger wrist sizes.

In my comparison post featuring this watch, I showed the backlight difference, it really is dramatic!

You can’t go wrong with this trusty timepiece.
