Yes you can, I have the watch, and there's a lock on the back side of the strap lock that you can loosen to adjust the length.

Got the same watch! I also bought it cause of Alien, haha.

Careful, it scratches very easily and loses accuracy every month, but its a really cool watch.

+1 reg. the scratching :'c

but I still love it, scratched or not

u/gia881 1d ago

Yes, mine too. When I saw the first scratch I was like: "f*** noo" but then "um that makes it more vintage" Would there be any way to remove scratches?

If anyone's curious the watch worn in the movie was the F-100, but Casio has since replaced it with the A100 which is in this post.

I got one very similar but has the same awful strap. That thing shredded all the hairs on my wrist. Changed it for a fabric one

u/Better-Union-2828 1d ago

i’ve had the same one for over a year and i never even thought of how it’s ripleys watch!!

u/email_user_2015 1d ago

Is she seeing anyone right now

u/3raz3t 1d ago

Recommendation: Buying a used F91W and putting the strap of it on this. Makes it 10x more comfortable to wear, lighter and personally I think it even looks better.

PS I only found out it's in Alien a while after getting the watch :D

u/SmooshButtons 6h ago

I get why the watch itself is a cool memento but bro it looks like a kids watch on you

One for the shelf 😂

u/GrossWeather_ 2d ago

folks should be able to wear whatever the fuck watch they want without getting assholed at, imo.

u/OwnCoffee614 1d ago

Getting assholed at. 👌 nice way to put it. 😁

u/I_enjoy_pastery 1d ago

Show me a kids watch that looks like a casio. They are small, but they look very functional in my opinion.
