 Watch OutSep 18, 2009
By John Albert
I purchased this watch to replace a watch/pedometer that I used for walking. When I received it I soon found out that the pedometer only works when you are running. Since I am not a runner it was useless to me so I returned it. Except for that one feature the watch while hard to use seemed to work well. Listing it as a pedometer is somewhat misleading.

 Accurate right out of the box, not for walkingApr 10, 2009
By M. OSHEA
Even without adjusting the settings for stride length, this watch was pretty much dead on right out of the box. It may be that the default settings are set for an average person. I'm 5'8 and went on a run on a known distance course. When in the mode that showed step count, it picked up every step.
Seems to be geared for running, on page 55 of manual it says that the watch is designed to count steps while you are running. It will not count steps correctly while walking.It seems to work fine for steady walking while your arm is moving. But breaks do "confuse" it a little.
My experience with pedometers is limited. For running though, it works well.
Have used it for a few months now, very accurate. Used it on a 2 mile marked course and it was right on. Figured out how to switch between displays, so previous post was corrected. Overall a pretty good alternative to the GPS and/or foot pod setups.

Casio Running WatchJul 30, 2009
By Hawk
"Heart patient"
This is a great upgrade to Casio's standard pedometer watch (STP-100). The manual explicitly states that it is only for running, but it is very accurate for walking. I have held objects in my left hand and even if I don't swing my arm, the watch accurately records my steps. I confirmed this with Casio before I bought the watch and they should probably rebrand it for walking and running.
You access the pedometer function through the stopwatch screen. You can set a goal and the watch will beep when you reach it. It has traditional Casio quality and features. It is ideal for travel because you can see 2 time zones and set multiple alarms.
After a month, I can say that I would give this watch 5 stars.

 Damn good recreational runner's watchApr 06, 2011
By Strategysoft
Pros:
1. Sturdy construction. Looks more like a G-Shock watch than a normal watch.
2. Size: Though the "case" is 44.2mm X 51.6, the face of the watch (silver ring) is smaller giving the appearance that the watch is not that big. Looks good even on my skinny wrist (7 inches). Sits comfortably on the flat of the wrist too.
3. Band: Does not look flimsy. Looks durable. Silky smooth to touch rubber. Quite pliant. Love the punched out grill like design. Gives it a nice "spidy" web look.
4. Features: Loaded. The usual Casio (world times, multi alarms, stop watch, count down time etc.) . The runners functions are very good if you are a recreational runner who just wants to run around few times a week and keep track of run level stats(Cal, distance, pace, times) and accumulated stats without relying on pre-mapped out gmap routes or GPS etc. Perfect.
5. Accuracy: Pretty good once you set your stride length (33 inches for me) The watch is designed to be worn on left wrist - keep your MP3 player etc to the right when you run so that your step count is not interrupted. It seems walking is accurate as well provided you swing your arms when you walk (no operating your smart phone while walking). However overestimates distance during walking if you don't adjust down the stride length.
6. Looks: I like the few color markings around the dial. Visual 20 sec indicator doubles as a target % indicator if you set target to achieve during your running (time, distance, energy). Easy to read font. Band is nice looking. Does not look ugly if you want to wear as everyday wear to office.
Nitpicks:
1. Would like alarm feature to set just for week days and not week ends.
2. Would like to turn off the beeping sound during button operation. Other Casio models allow this to be turned off.
3. If this is your first Casio watch all the button pressing and sequencing etc may be a turn off. Look at PDF at casio web site by module #3166.
Bottom line: Don't see how you can do better than this watch particularly if you are a runner.

Great for running, OK for walking, otherwise superb designMar 20, 2011
By G. Kline
"art hunter"
Casio is a world leader in digital watches. These days they have a dizzying array of models to choose from with different mixes of features. The G-Shock line is the most popular, however, some functionality can't be found in that line. Enter the SGW200 Lap and Distance model.
Casio's experience in digital watch making since the early 1980's gives this watch a fantastic heritage behind it. Pretty much everything is well thought out. But, like any device with a function that needs human input to operate properly, there has to be a manual to understand it. I did not like the enclosed manual, so I downloaded the one available from the Casio website ([...]), which is a little easier to follow. You just enter the module number (3166) to get the right one.
I found the watch pretty accurate on measuring distance traveled. But, you must make sure you capture your stride correctly. The idea is to jog a known measured distance and count your steps along the way. You then divide the distance by your "steps" and you'll get your stride value. This is what you'll input into the watch. So, it's based on your average. If you decide to "run" instead of "jog", your stride may be slightly different and so the measurements will vary. But... in the grand scheme of things, it's a minor variation. However, with walking, your stride is definitely different. You may need to adjust it to get a proper measurement. Also, if you do not swing your arms much, it may not work at all. Ideally for walking, you are best off using a waist mounted pedometer. I haven't tried hooking this one to my waist to see... I'll have to give it a go and report back.
In other respects, this is a terrific watch. The wrist band is very comfortable (soft pliable plastic with silky texture). The numeral display is a good sized font. Also, I like how the time, date, and day are displayed simultaneously. And unlike most LCD watches that have a backlight, this one has the numeral segments light up--much better contrast and easier to see. Over the time of a week, the watch gained 1 second. That's pretty darned good. Lastly, the alarm has a nice loud sound to it (unlike most digital watches). You've got 5 alarms you can set, where one of them operates like a snooze (it'll go off multiple times until you press a button). This is useful, because the alarm sounds for just 10 seconds, which may not be long enough for some people.
Funny thing... the overall design looks similar to some of the G-Shock models (most popular and more expensive), so on a few occasions I've had people ask me "Oh, is that a G-Shock?" Unless you really beat up your watch, the G-Shock is probably more robust than you need. I picked this one up on sale at a big department store that had a Casio clearance going on. Still, the price being charged by Amazon is darned good, especially since you don't have to pay for shipping.
