Summary

In this video, the creator from "DIJAMIN - Ulasan dan Tutorial" provides a detailed review of the Casio F105W digital watch, which is closely related to the F91W model but boasts a superior backlight. The watch's five standout features include an electroluminescence backlight, water resistance up to 30 meters, a stopwatch, an alarm, and a 7-year battery life using the CR2016 battery. Comparing it with the F91W, it is slightly larger and heavier due to the EL backlight. The review also includes a comparison of the module and casing differences between the two models. Overall, the Casio F105W is praised for its comfortable wear, although its acrylic crystal can scratch easily and its strap might not fit larger wrists comfortably.
