Looking closer at the W-800H, we get a glimpse of what makes a Casio a Casio. Strewn along the screen’s periphery are printed set texts showcasing the various functions of the watch: Adjust, Mode, Light, and 12/24H.

Casio was founded after the end of World War II in 1946. Tadao Kashio started by producing mechanical parts by himself until his brothers joined him. The small family operation started off by making calculators for the domestic market. The W-800H’s case starts with a restrained 36.8mm case diameter, with lugs extending to 44.2mm. The watch offers no overhang, even on my 6-inch wrist. At the bottom of the screen is the text denoting the 100m water resistance of the rugged watch. At the top is the branding Casio in all capped text and the advertisement of the 10-year battery life in red text. That said, it does look slightly bigger than the 36mm would entail, probably due to the larger surface area from being a square watch. The point I’m trying to make here, is you’re polling a system intended to measure time with an previously unknown duration to determine if you’ve reached a known, fixed duration. That’s the job of an event-based (interrupt) system.Technical amendments and errors excepted. The sizes in figures do not correspond to the original sizes.

Synthetic resin is the ideal material for wrist straps thanks to its extremely durable and flexible properties. The 3240 movements are powered by a simple CR2025 battery. With the case being held down by four screws, changing the battery would be fairly simple. Of course, you probably won’t have to worry about that for the first ten years or so. W-800H Strap To the right, we have three acronyms — SNZ, ALM, and SIG. SNZ signals the snooze function when setting the alarm of the watch, with ALM being the sign of the alarm toggle. SIG is the (in)famous hourly beep the watch can emit at the top of the hour.The resin housing is the ideal everyday companion. It is durable, lightweight and relatively insensitive to cold, heat or other external influences. There are several places around the world where time zones are differentiated by half hours rather than full hours (and a couple are even offset by 45 minutes!). Newfoundland here in Canada is 30 minutes ahead of Atlantic Time (1.5 hours ahead of Eastern Time). In Australia, the three main time zones are separated by 1.5 and 0.5 hours rather than by a single hour between each pair of time zones. (It fits their geography better.) If you dig deeply enough, there is even a small corner of Australia that is 45 minutes ahead of one neighbour and 45 minutes behind the other neighbour! See: The inverse is equally as ridiculous: set a countdown timer for a time guaranteed to be longer than the unknown duration you’re trying to measure. When the event would normally stop your count-up, you instead look at the countdown – subtracting the current value from your original, and boom: you’ve turned a countdown timer into a stopwatch. Protecting the dial of this timepiece is an acrylic plastic window lens. This is a very basic type of lens that has its own benefits and disadvantages. The main disadvantage is how easily the screen can scratch, on the plus side though most scratches can easily be buffed out with the right technique. It’s a lens that’s often found on either cheaper or more traditionally built watches.
