This is the newest addition to W-series integrating contemporary Casio technology into 90's retro design.
W-221H uses a square case shape with a brushed metallic bezel and a polished face, while the band connection features a flat stripe pattern to accentuate the minimalist styling.
The display features a wide, easy-to-read layout with a pixel-style day indicator to reinforce the retro look.
Casio included a full set of digital functions in this mid-sized body such as world time, multi-alarm, stopwatch, and countdown timer etc.
The back light is a LED with selectable durations of 1.5 or 3 seconds.
The bright, amber-colored LED helps improve visibility in dark environments.
Casio stopped manufacturing of EL-back light models recently and shifted all new models to be equipped with bright LED.
Actually, EL-back light is obsolete technology now because it fades away after years of use and consume a lot of battery.
However, LED does not fade and lasts almost forever with little consumption of power.
With 50m water resistance, W-221H has everything you need for a watch.
