P. D Little by little I will be adding more information and more curiosities of this module 593 Japanese of the F-91 W.

According to secret documents issued to interrogators at Guantanamo Bay, obtained [13] and released by The Guardian, "the Casio F-91W digital watch was declared to be 'the sign of al-Qaeda' and a contributing factor to continued detention of prisoners by the analysts stationed at Guantanamo Bay. I never thought I’d come across a watch that would appear a tad undersized for my 6-inch wrist but the Casio F-84W is one of them. The top left button is used to cycle through seconds, hours, minutes, month, date, day and normal mode.Where the ’84’ really shrinks on the wrist compared to the ’91’ is the design and taper of the resin strap. Coupled with the really high quality bund strap, a sapphire crystal and a Myota movement, it's great. The US government became suspicious of Afghanis who wore Casio watches due to their ability to be used as timers for improvised explosive devices, a tactic favored by al-Qaeda. If you’ve never checked out this underrated timepiece, then read on to find out why I like this watch so much. The fonts are straight out of the mid-80s, and there’s a “Lithium” inscription that doesn’t appear on the F-91W.

The upper left button, labeled "Light", turns on the light, cancels the alarm, resets the stopwatch or marks the split (lap) time, and is used for selecting settings. Very similar to the CA-53W, the A100 has huge nostalgia factor as it's the watch Ripley wore in the Alien films. The time or date is adjusted by pressing the lower left button three times to bring the watch to time adjustment mode.If you’re thinking that it’s pretty much a carbon copy of the ’91’ with only minor aesthetic changes, you’re right. Both the alarm and stopwatch are easy to use, though it may take a few uses for the button layout to become second nature.
