There are tons of fitness trackers out there, many offering impressive insights into health and fitness. But the simple Casio WS-B1000, now on sale at Amazon and Walmart for just $39.10 (down $17 from its usual price), isn’t exactly one of them.

At its core, the WS-B1000 is a lightweight watch with basic smarts, retro looks, and a few color options. It doesn’t have a heart rate monitor or a fancy OLED screen, but it does come with an accelerometer for step tracking, up to two years of battery life on a single CR2016 coin cell, and Bluetooth for connecting to your phone. Pairing it with the Casio app gives you a basic activity log and ensures your watch is always synced to the correct time (pretty handy, right?).
It also offers standard wristwatch features like a stopwatch, timer, and alarm. But what makes the WS-B1000 appealing isn’t what it has—it’s what it doesn’t. For someone like me, tired of endless notifications and only interested in counting steps, this affordable tracker with a touch of Y2K nostalgia is a breath of fresh air.
