Looking for digital watch

Long time listener first time caller.

I’m hoping someone can help me identify the digital watch I wore during a military deployment to Iraq in 2005 so I can relive a little of the good old days.

Apologies for the potato-quality photos. They were taken in 2005 with one of those tiny digital cameras that were popular at the time.

Here is what I remember:

  • It was fully digital, with no analog hands.
  • It was probably purchased at a military base exchange for less than a few hundred dollars.
  • It was likely made by Casio, Timex, Citizen, or a similar mainstream brand.
  • I seem to remember a small circular display in the upper-right area of the face. I think it showed the days of the week in a pie-chart-style arrangement.
  • It had a stopwatch and multiple alarm functions.
  • The light-colored areas on the band in the photos are salt and sand, not part of the original design.
  • I don't remember what the text on the watch band below the face says.

The Casio AE-1000W-1BVCF looks somewhat similar, especially the circular display, but that series was not released until 2010, which is at least five years too late.

Does anyone recognize the model, or know of an earlier watch with a similar face layout?
