would some Casio/watch expert know if it's possible to replace the face plate on these watches? I love the simplicity but I don't like all the text outside the watch itself like "Step tracker" and "Water Resist".

You could look at these two which are the original f-91 with minimal faceplate. I have the second one and I like it a lot.

the face decal is printed on the inside of the crystal (plastic). it can be removed with solvent and replaced if you find/make a replacement.

I am with you, I love the anesthetics of a Casio but hate how the face has so much text.

I think the appropriate way in this case is to cover it up with black tape.
