Casio A168WA: A Community Review
I liked the look with the square shape of it. It brings back childhood memories of my Dad wearing it. I really liked the green glow. When it’s dark you wouldn’t need a flashlight to read the time. I liked that the watch wasn’t too big either.

VIDEO: The heart of Panerai – the new Luminor Marina Logo 3 Days in steel
The heart of Panerai’s line-up has to be the entry-level Luminor. A 44mm watch with the classic crown guard-equipped Luminor case and not much in the way of frills.
