Description
The Casio AE-1600H-5AVDF delivers military-inspired functionality wrapped in a rugged khaki resin construction. This rectangular digital watch is engineered for those who demand reliability and extended battery life, featuring Casio's celebrated 10-year battery technology that keeps you on time for a decade without the need for replacement. The beige-toned case and integrated resin strap create a cohesive tactical aesthetic, while the multi-function digital display offers comprehensive timekeeping and alarm capabilities.
Equipped with Casio's Illuminator backlight, the AE-1600H ensures legibility in low-light conditions—a critical feature for early mornings or evening activities. The watch houses five independent daily alarms with hourly time signal, a 1/100-second stopwatch, and world time functionality covering 31 time zones. Water resistance to 100 metres makes this timepiece suitable for swimming and snorkelling, though not for diving. The quartz movement guarantees precision timekeeping, while the hardened mineral crystal protects the digital display from scratches and daily wear.

Warranty
- This Casio watch is covered by a 1-year international manufacturer's warranty from the date of purchase.
- The warranty is valid only when the watch is purchased from an authorised Casio retailer such as Cassims & Co.
- Coverage includes defects in materials and workmanship under normal use conditions.
- The warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, battery replacement, cosmetic damage such as scratches to the case or crystal, or damage resulting from accidents, misuse, or unauthorized repairs.
- Water damage caused by improper use (such as operating buttons underwater or exceeding the stated water resistance rating) is not covered.
- To claim warranty service, please present your original proof of purchase along with the watch to Cassims & Co. or an authorised Casio service centre.
- Cassims & Co. will facilitate all warranty claims on your behalf to ensure a smooth and efficient service experience.
Care guide
- Rinse the watch with fresh water after exposure to salt water or chlorinated pool water to prevent residue buildup.
- Clean the resin case and strap periodically using a soft cloth dampened with mild soapy water, then dry thoroughly.
- Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight for prolonged periods, or harsh chemicals including solvents and cosmetics.
- Do not press any buttons while the watch is underwater, as this may compromise water resistance.
- If the display becomes difficult to read or the backlight dims significantly, the battery may be nearing the end of its life—contact us for replacement.
- Store the watch in a cool, dry place when not in use, away from magnetic fields and electronic devices that may affect timekeeping accuracy.
- Have the water resistance tested periodically if you regularly use the watch for swimming, as gasket seals may degrade over time.
- Avoid impact or dropping the watch, as shock can damage the quartz movement or LCD display.
