Described as a “wide face” model, the LCD display resembles full-digital Pro Trek watches with their larger digits. The bezel has four G-Shock-like bumpers that protect the display and give the watch a rugged style (but a closer look reveals that the front screws are not really screws). The cost-cutting is most apparent with the use of resin glass, which is inferior to the mineral glass that is typically used for G-Shock and Pro Trek watches. One thing in the AE-1500WH’s favour is the approximate 10-year battery life, thanks to the use of a large CR2032 battery. It is also water-resistant to 100 meters.
