I’ve 7 World Time watches - From AE-1000 to AE-3000. Finally I decided to pull trigger on A500 ! I like the looks/dial layout of A300 though.

I dont understand how it is possible that the A500 is thicker than the A300 if our technology is far ahead from 1987 ‘s technology..On the other hand the 1987’s bracelet is mote beautiful ftom my point of view.

It's a completely different world we are living in now. 1980s and 2020s is almost another planet differently. Of course a made in Japan exquisite stainless steel Casio is much better (more refined, more elegant, sleeker, better thought out, better done...) than a mass produced chinese version. Of course it will look like a cheap copy. It is a cheap copy. Well, at least is similar to the original and Casio released it. Better than nothing. If Casio would have done a much closer version it would cost 3 or 4 times more nowadays to produce it. But unfortunately it's a whole different world we are living now. And different economy. Too bad. Bring factories back home! (Japan, USA, etc.).

Agree, but back in the day, Japan was the current-day China. Stealing IP and manufacturing western things for less. The main difference being that the Japanese maintained quality, whereas the Chinese are all about profits.

I much prefer the old model, seems to look more slimline plus it has a nicer braclet and multifunction alarms (but no light) The newer model seems to only have daily alarms although the light is a bonus, thanks for the video, nice one

A tough one here... I usually go for the old piece, but I Must say that the recent one is pretty cool too. I like the borders on the maps Better on the vintage one. Cooler beeps on the old one too. I mean … older is always better when it comes to well Preserved objects! Both nice watches!

I like the reissue shows the correct time and date. 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 I prefer the old Casio watches to the re-issues. This is a good example of this. Casio does need to either use the original tooling to make them exactly the same or reimage them with the height of what they can do today. Look at the a700 which is largely a super thin more polished f91w. Apply the same ethos with these re-issues. That Timex is awesome.

When shown side by side the A500 looks like a knock-off of the A300. I don't like the the new shape of the digits. The digits on the A300 just scream "genuine Casio" to me. Also I prefer the A/P instead of 24H/PM indicators.

They should of made it identical but upgraded the back light to illuminator. I would even go to making it in Japan and retained the quality materials. Sure the price would be a lot higher but your buying a classic design. The only indication of the upgrade would be on the back case - A300b- Illuminator -Made in Japan.
