Why it makes a good gift
Best for : Someone who likes 1980s-style digital watches and wants one that looks a little dressier than a resin-strap model.
Best occasion : A birthday, Father's Day or Christmas, as a gift under $30.
Why it works : Digital Casio watches are instantly recognizable, and this one swaps a plastic strap for a gold-tone stainless steel bracelet, which gives it more presence on the wrist at about $30. With a battery the listing puts at roughly seven years, the gift will not need attention any time soon.
Avoid if : The recipient wants a smartwatch or an analog dial: this is a digital quartz watch with no connected features.
