Casio Illuminator MWA-100H-2AVCF 50mm, blue analog quartz watch, sold by Amazon
This is an unbiased, honest, uncompensated review for this 50mm analog, blue dial Casio Illuminator. I've used Casio watches since the 1970s, they are extremely accurate and have never failed me, and while the battery has failed from time to time, the watches have always performed for several years. Casio has always improved their line and with their dependability and steady prices, has always been a good budget line, and now includes units like this that won't break your budget. There are economy and then there are high priced models which plenty of other companies make, and Casio now makes higher priced units that won't break the bank and can be just as stylish for folks who don't have that kind of budget. These do take a licking though I'm not convinced I want to take this one swimming or in the shower; not even with a more expensive watch rated at 600 feet depth. Others do so with no apparent negative results. If this Illuminator fails, it's not an Omega or Rolex, so isn't as painful to contemplate replacing and it's less flashy so others may not wish to deprive you of your Casio.When this one was recently offered at discount on Amazon, I snapped it up' I really like the size, the housing, the hands, the lighting and blue dial. I'd intended to put a Nato wrist band on it; Wrong; Wife immediately took to it, since it has no digital LED, and the way Casio set up the back light, it's very easy to read. Besides, what guy can say no to their life's companion? Some, not I. She didn't care for the band but neither did I. Now we're both pleased that she has a nice new (inexpensive) leather band on the nice Illuminator watch. The battery life is supposed to be decent, though not ten years, so time will tell! Any time one of these larger Illuminators go on sale, just get one, or two since your Wife will want one, and because it's not as large and heavy as a lady might think. It's light as a feather and entirely appropriate for a lady! Hope this helps others in their purchasing.

Composite Case, Smaller Than Expected
Composite plastic and steel case. Listed size includes plastic extensions to case and the crown, not how most watch sizes are measured. Bezel diameter is 40.6mm and the crystal is 32mm. The band is formed sheet metal links rather than machined solid links. This is expected at this price. Single LED at bottom for night illumination, not particularly effective. Quite light weight at only 3.5 ounces with the unsized metal bracelet. Mine seems to be much more accurate than the listed +/_ 20 seconds per month. At the price I would call it a utility watch that when worn looks more expensive than it is.

Bold, Big, Attractive
I really like this Casio watch. I've owned many brands of watches over the decades, including Casio's, and this model is nicely done. It has a quality blue face, clear numbering, luminous hands (it reacts to light then becomes luminous) and a beautiful orange/yellow illuminator with afterglow to see the time in complete darkness. The band wears well and the battery is good for 3 years or so, plus it is highly waterproof, rated for 100 meter (3 atmospheres) water resistance and has a scratch resistant lens too. For all the features Casio put in the price charged is very fair indeed! So I'm very pleased with this model from Casio. 😊

You light up my life!
The media could not be loaded. Absolutely happy with this purchase! What a rugged looking handsome watch with a really nice blue face! It is light as a feather which is usually not the case with rugged metal watches. The strap is a soft plastic that is easy to put on and strong for a tactical strap/watch! The coup de tat is the light!! Wow, like a gauge on a world war 2 B-17 in my opinion! See my video, lights up so you can see the time without straining your eyes or even squinting! I can't say enough about this watch and plus it's a very good and reliable brand, Casio! Go for it!! I'd buy this baby over and over again! I hope this helps.

Classic beauty.
Beautiful watch with great time accuracy. I have the time set down to the second and in about two weeks it's only been off by -1 second. For an entry level price on a watch that is amazing. The watch was easy to adjust, easy to set the time and has a beautiful navy blue dial that has a nice shine to it in the sun. Would definitely recommend as a gift for any watch lover.

Bad ass
Really a great watch. The light works fine. Everything is good. Happy I got it. It's waterproof. I've been swimming with it no problem.

Nice for the price
The dial is darker blue than expected but I love the look of this watch. Has clasp adjustment and fit me fine, but I am not sure if you can remove links if you need it smaller.
