Overview

The gold-and-green Casio look with a long-life battery, for someone who does not mind the premium over the base A158. Skip it if you just want a cheap gold digital Casio; the A158WEA-9CF regularly drops to US$22.

The beater; the one that goes on when the Tudor should not. Bought 2026-03-31 from Amazon.ca for C$109 (per watch; one order of five in March 2026 and one more in June 2026).
