WoWasis field test review: a durable travel watch & calculator that will never be stolen

Written By: herbrunbridge - Jul• 02•11

Here at WoWasis, we like to think we dress well when we travel, but we like to look cheap, too. Cheap enough that criminals won’t target us for robbery when we’re far from the police. Some folks like to wear Rolexes (even fake ones) and gold jewelry when they travel to countries with low average incomes, but not us. Even with the care we take, we’ve gotten robbed, too. But they’ve never stolen our watch.

Two members of the WoWasis field test team have used the durable Casio CA53W calculator watch for years, and swear by it. We use the calculator with raised buttons all the time, because we have to instantly convert foreign currency when we’re buyig something. We need the time in two time zones, the date, and an alarm, so that we don’t miss a travel connection.

This mighty little watch has gone through innumerable rainstorms, been dropped, sat on, kicked, pounded, and pummeled, and we’ve never even replaced the battery. And it looks cheap, so no one’s going to be following us around thinking we have money. At under $15 USD, it’s a great bargain, and we highly recommend it. Buy it now from the WoWasis travel eStore.
