Is the Casio DW-291H-1AV good for swimming?

Yes. It is rated 200 meters (20 ATM), which covers swimming and snorkeling. It is not rated for scuba diving.

Does it have a backlight?

It has Casio's standard LED illumination. Owners say it works but is not bright, so reading it in the dark takes a moment.

Stopwatch, countdown timer, alarms, world time, date and 24-hour time display.

Yes. It runs on a standard button-cell battery and is not solar. Expect a few years per battery under normal use.

No. The resin case and strap keep it light, which owners often mention as a plus.

The F-91W is smaller and lighter but rated only 30 meters. The DW-291H adds 200m water resistance and world time in a chunkier resin case.
