The best thing about this watch is that it has a Pop-culture status too, it was in the movie Mission Impossible and has been seen being worn by an American political figure as well. after 10 minutes of light "elbow grease" the watch was "Aged" to my liking without the use of any harmful chemicals or solvents. Setting alarms and timing activities is a breeze, thanks to the intuitive controls and easy-to-read display.

I've been looking around the web and I found this DW-290 with what appears to have the blue and red graphic in reverse. So please, if you guys have photos of your DW-290 with a different colored strap, I'd love to have a look. Este reloj lo anduve cazando desde hace varios años y decidí regalármelo de reyes magos; es un reloj mediano muy parecido al tamaño de los G-shock pero su función es limitada a un reloj convencional que te da la hora, cronómetro y alarma. Also, Casio DW290 wears well on a larger wrist (I have an 8 inch wrist) and doesn't get hung up on the wrist bone or require any band modifications for the wearer with a larger wrist.
