Had my eye on this one for a while as I like the vintage look with the additional functionality of step tracking. Normal price RRP is $229.
Also available at Myer for $171.75 delivered until midnight tonight.

I assumed for this price it would have a mineral lens & stainless steel case but it's a chrome plated resin case & resin lens.
I don't have the watch but have watched a review or two on YouTube. IMO, the most attractive feature on this watch is the Bluetooth. It allows the watch to automatically syncs its time with the mobile phone it's paired with. No more having to manually adjust the time after daylight savings starts/end or when the watch runs too fast or slow. Another useful feature is the ability to find your phone by pressing a button on the watch. It will cause the phone to emit a loud sound.
Yeah not sure why I was negged, my comment above is basically stating a fact.
In comparison to the G-Shock GBD-100-1DR for $159.86 which has bluetooth, step tracker, MIP display & 200M I just thought it would have a mineral lens & SS case.
I assume it's because the watch hasn't been out as long as the GBD-100 or the GBD-200. I am sure the price will drop over time.
Yeah you can get a Casio A1000 with stainless case and mesh bracelet which are much better quality (think I paid $131 from tictacarea).
The step counter may be the main attraction for the OP but still seems a bit expensive.
Indeed, it's the functionality that draws me, not the case materials. I had a look at the A1000, the display is just too simple for my tastes.
Yeah it's simple and along the lines of the iconic A158 & A168 (but better materials and white led backlighting).
I think you are always best buying from Amazon if you aren't sure, free returns are dead easy. I wouldn't hold your hopes too high for the step and fitness tracking, the Move App is rubbish and step counting not that accurate (but maybe good enough). Uses an accelerometer (so may count steps if in the car apparently).
A Fitbit charge 5/6 is better and does way more.
Maybe check AliExpress. Plenty of vintage watches for $5-10
Do squats rather than steps
OK, best price I've found is $112.15 AUD (plus GST) delivered https://www.watchspree.com.sg/products/casio-digital-abl100w…
This is amazing buddy, thanks. A good $60 saving over what I found.
What are you doing step-watch?
