I actually like the look of the original G-shock square version of this module that has come out since I purchased this one. But I like the functionality and added protection that comes with the rubber pusher covers: "mudman" "G-shock-II" features on this model. It's just a tad big for me, but I've gotten used to it. I also got this one cheaper than the standard square version which is a big plus as they share all the same multi function features.
I really like the functionality, water resistance and reliability. Like I said this one hasn't left my wrist and I have some really nice automatics and divers to choose from so thats saying alot.
Go for it. For the price and function it's worth a bit of sacrifice on form.
G-Shock Solar Atomic Watch is an excellent timekeeper. Noteworthy is the fact that the screen goes blank when it is in the dark, but as soon as it is exposed to light, the black digits re-appear. It is sometimes difficult to depress the light button, but it is well protected from exposure to any type of moisture. The solar power and the automatic synchronization are both excellent features.
Also like the fact that the buckle has two latches. The band is very comfortable compared to most of the Casio watches that only have a single prong buckle.
The watch is easy for use with time zones. An excellent feature if you have to travel into different time zones. Most important of all is that it lives up to the toughness of the "G-Shock" tradition.
I chose this watch for its simplicity, and I am VERY HAPPY with it. The watch is set for the Cesium clock in Japan, so it must be configured for the Cesium clock in Colorado or it will register a signal error. This is done by reading the comprehensive instructions. I took the back off in attempt to reset it, but the battery can't be removed. In the process I messed up the buttons, so I had to take the back off again to fix the buttons. In the process I may have not seated the O-ring right, but if the crystal develops condensation I'll have to take the back off a third time, dry it out and fix the O-ring. When I shorted the battery it drained the battery and reset, but after wearing it in the sun mowing the yard it charged to high and stayed there ever since.
I'm a little worried about the watch band and replacing it if it ever breaks. I might try and obtain a couple of extras from Casio. It doesn't use the standard spring pins. The band is unique to this watch, and it's made of plastic.
The watch has calibrated with the Cesium clock in Colorado every day so far without fail. I am hoping this continues and that it will be as good a watch for me as the similar-looking Casio watches of the 1980's.
Great watch, has no problem syncing with atomic time server, smaller profile than most G shocks. I wear it every day with no problems, also like the solar feature that recharges internal battery. My only complaint is that there are no replacement bands available, at least at this time. I don't need one yet but experience has shown that these type of bands don't last forever and will need replaced at some point. Hopefully, a band will become available by the time I need one. But, don't let that deter you from purchasing this watch, I've very happy with it!
