Shame Casio changed the A159 to a snaplock bracelet, the fold-over seemed to be the biggest differentiator to the A158.

While the new bracelet is in the same 5-link style, the older one is more nicely finished on the outside.

 

My everyday watch is a159wa I like the clasp personally and the bracelet is very comfortable to me, others remark it pulls their hairs out but not on me luckily, btw this watch is so neat even at jewelers the watch guys notice it and remark how neat they are.

 

Bringing up an old thread - so, I’ve been really into these Casio A159 watches. I really wanted the newer style Casio A159-WA style bracelet, not the old style “clasp” bracelet version of this watch.

Amazon currently has 2 different A159 versions. The WA version and the standard W version. Apparently - both of these watches are shipped with the “older style” full scissor size clasp, even though the box is labeled as “A159-WA”. So - I ended up sending both watches back.

The older style scissor style bracelet was probably THE most uncomfortable bracelet as far as pulling arm hairs that I have ever had. And that comes from someone who wears an A168 fairly frequently.

So - the search continues for an A159 with the 158/168 style clasp.

 

If you absolutely have to have the 5-link snap lock bracelet, the A171 has it guaranteed. Dunno what the prices on those are right now, but you could get one of those and swap the bracelets around.
