 "Disappointed" 2008-12-04
By Peter Tan (Singapore)
This was my very first solar-powered watch. Three years ago, I saw it while walking past a watch store at a local shopping mall, and the price tag said "$50" (about US$33), so I bought it on impulse.



At that point in time, I've always thought that solar powered watches cost at least $500 or more. Imagine my delight at finding a cheap solar powered watch!



However, my joy was pretty short-lived. A couple of weeks down the road, while wearing it, it switched off right in the middle of the day! Lunchtime in fact, while I was out walking around in bright sunlight! Hands stopped moving, LCD screen blank except for a "LO C" blinking indicator. It was impossible since I have never seen the watch move from the "Hi" battery level indicator before.



An hour later it turned itself back on while I was back in the office. Hands moved to the correct time, LCD screen was back on, and the battery indicator said "Hi".



A few incidents similar to this happened a few times, in the following months. So much so that I decided to junk this watch and threw it inside my drawer, never touching it for about 8 months or so.



Recently, I took it out of the drawer again and the watch turned itself back on when it was exposed to light. Battery Indicator said "MID". So I left it on the window sill for 3 days straight, hoping that it stays at "Hi".



On the 4th day, I wore it out. We went to the movies, and right in the middle of the movie when I wanted to check the time, I pressed the backlight and... nada. No reaction. I tilted the watch to let the light from the movie shine on it and saw the watch had turned itself off AGAIN, about 40 mins ago (checked time with my mobile phone).



Somewhere along the way, still during the same movie, the watch turned itself on again, because suddenly I heard it do the hourly beep thing. Now, I know for sure that the watch was not exposed to light in any way, and even if it did, the light from the movie is nowhere near powerful enough to charge it up to turn it back on.



My take is this - it's too cheap to send it back to Casio for servicing. If it works while you wear it, enjoy it. It will suck when it doesn't.



The other thing about Casio analogue watches which I didn't like much is that the "luminous paint" on the hands is almost useless. It glows for like only 15 mins and then stop glowing. Practically useless. It's not just on this watch - I own a couple of other Casio digi-ana watches from the G-Shock line and every single one of them had the same problem of short-lived glowing luminous hands and markers.

 "Great Watch!" 2008-07-19
By Jason Bills (Beaverton, OR USA)
This is a great watch! It looks nice and is a very good size for my wrist. The solar function is great. I have been using the watch for about 5 months with main light exposure being flourescent, moderate exposure to sunlight, and some (cold) days wearing sweatshirts that covered the watch and I have not seen the battery drop below the "Hi" charge level.



The one downside is that the watchface is plastic so it does scratch fairly easily.

 "Solar questionable?" 2008-03-06
By Lance Johnson (Fremont, Nebraska)
This is overall a functional nice looking watch, but I agree that the face scratches too easily and after 3 years the solar recharge has stopped working (even if the battery is brand new). Yes, I know it has worked for three years, but now that the solar recharge doesn't work, it goes through batteries extremely quickly.

 "Good solar watch" 2007-12-24
By Armando Rodarte
I like this watch because I can foget the bateries and it don't stop, the only thing I need to do is to keep it suficient time in an bright lighted area

 "good watch but plastic window" 2007-05-19
By Abhijit Jawale (Phoenix, AZ USA)
The window cover is not mineral glass, its plastic very easy to get scratches. Otherwise watch is excellent, good value for money. Controls are easy. Dual time is a cool feature.

 "My Casio" 2009-09-25
By Todor T. Djulvezan (Savannah, Georgia USA)
This is my second watch of exactly the same one. My previous watch lasted 5 years. I wear it to work and it takes a beating every day. I am a hands on Aircraft Mechanic. I love the recessed glass so that it does not get scratched. The watch still works but the wrist band finally gave out. If you need something rugged and dependable you cannot go wrong with Casio. Casio is a superb watch maker and is the only brand I use.Take it from a professional it is well worth the money.

 "Great watch!" 2009-09-19
By James E. Bentley (portland, or)
Love it. Perfect combination of simplicity, style & technology.



Uncomplicated easy to read display. Stylish, not brutish look.

Perfect, technology blend of Atomic time, Solar recharge, Water

resistant, G-Shock rugged.

 "Very Solid Product with One Missing Feature" 2009-09-15
By Jonathan Van Der Zee (Chico, CA)
After buying this watch and receiving I noted the high quality upon opening the box. The brushed aluminum is a nice touch. The watch is big, but I like that about it. The atomic feature is very nice, noting that it stays in tune with my time on my computers at work. How nice to never have to set it again! The charge remains at full without any additional intervention upon arrival other than some exposure to sunlight or a bright internal light. The only issue I have with the watch is the need for a count down timer. This is a feature I have always had with Timex watches in the past and have already found my self searching for it even though it isn't there. I would definitely consider this watch again and/or recommend it to family and friends.

 "Excellent G-Shock" 2009-09-13
By loubapache (Michigan, United States)
As most reviewers have said, this is an excellent G-Shock. It is accurate, tough, solar, world times, water resistant to 200 m, and the sync works flawlessly for me. It is my reference watch now.



The contrast could be better but the auto illumination works well enough. A count down timer would be nice as well.

 "Good watch" 2009-09-12
By Saint (Florida)
Good looking watch with good quality.Contrast between background and numbers is poor..outdoor this is not a problem but indoor will give some people like me problem to read time.Synchronization with with atomic clock doesn't work the way I wish.. Every night I left watch by window as instruction say and only few times a month I'm able to synchronize my watch.

This should be easy task anytime day or night ,but is not.

 "Excellent Timepiece Without Any Problems for over a year." 2009-05-09
By GunsNGlory (Tennessee)
I've worn this watch almost everyday for more than a year and have had zero problems with it. The only time I really take it off is when I'm cleaning up and getting ready for work. The small indicator at the top center that shows the charge level is always at "H" for high. I have noticed at night when I have woke up in mid-sleep, the screen is blank where the watch has went into sleep mode. The watch keeps excellent time. I have two atomic clocks in my home and the time is exact with them. I realize they are all feeding from the same place, but it's nice to have the same time on everything.

The watch isn't something to look at and marvel unfortunately. I only wish Casio would make a more eye appealing watch with these same functions.

I would recommend this watch to anyone who wants a good, decently priced time piece that they don't have to worry about.

 "Great watch, great price" 2009-04-20
By B. Ginkel (Utah)
I have owned this watch for almost 2 years now, and it is a purchase I do not regret in the least. It has performed flawlessly following me during two deployments to Iraq. If you want a watch for it's functionality first, then I highly recommend this item.



PROS:

-Solar power, no need for battery replacement, obviously

-Atomic update, nice when in areas with civilization anyways

-Large numeral display

-Auto illumination with a tilt of the wrist. I can't overstate how great of a feature this is, esp if you have to work in low light conditions

-It can take a great deal of abuse



CONS:

-The solar feature does require the watch to be overtly charged if you aren't exposed to light all day, esp in the winter months or if your sleeve covers the face most of the day. If you set it up somewhere to charge in sunlight though, the charge usually lasts a couple of weeks without a recharge

-It's larger in thickness and overall face size than most digital watches and even some analogs.



With that said, the pros heavily outwiegh the cons for me and my personal preferences and situations. I have a citizen black eagle also, and although it charges much faster, not having illumination makes me just want to wear the G-shock. So I usually do.

 "Rugged watch" 2009-03-15
By Richard U. Newell (West Des Moines, IA)
I bought this watch because too many others got scratched up. So far after a 1/2 year of wear there is not so much as a scratch on it - it looks brand new. I like the fact that the watch syncs up every night - no need to worry about daylight savings adjustments. Sometime in February the power level dropped from high to medium but that hasn't affected the performance and I imagine it will return to high later in the month now that it's starting to warm up and I'm getting out in the sun. I would agree that the first circular display is pointless and if anything I remove it and increase the display size, but it is adequate as is. It is a bit big and bulky but you get used to it. I switch between this one and a Citizen solar powered watch if I want something dressier.

 "Very nice watch." 2009-01-23
By Melvin R. Cordova (Port Saint Lucie, FL USA)
This watch is great. I got it because of the atomic clock synchronization. The solar battery recharging is yet to prove itself. Has great features that you usually find in Casio such as more than one alarm setting. One thing worth mentioning is that the atomic clock synchro status indicator might not show when you first get the watch. I thought mine was deffective until I did a manual syncrho and then the indicator lit up. The price might be a bit steep, but the quality seems to be worth it and Amazon happened to have this watch cheaper than anywhere else I searched.

 "xomerlin" 2009-09-13
By Kent B. Swart (shanghai china)
excellent time piece. the only thing i would change would be the color of the screen while the light is on, i would change it to red.

 "Another great watch from Casio" 2009-09-11
By J. C. Briggs (FL USA)
I bought this to replace the prior model which eventually wore out. The only changein design I don't like is that the day and date are no longer displayed on the same screen together. You have to toggle from one to the other. Otherwise, it is hard to beat.

Yes, it has a rather large face, but so what! It packs in alot of great tools. Barometer, Altimeter, Thermometer, Compass all seem to be fairly accurate. Plus it keeps time! The solar charge lasts a while. I've never had an issue in running out of juice.

its light yet durable.

easy to use, big button, simple and functionable.

d 100m WR is good.

great value, thanks amazon for the big discount.

d 50mm case look intimidating but fashionable, it really make a statement.

the titanium case and bracelet is comfortable and classic looking.

overall i'm really happy with this watch.

thank you.

 "Love the watch!" 2009-06-24
By Watch collector (Georgia)
This watch is everything I expected it to be. I love it because it's solar power and will not require a battery change every six months. The time zone function is a bit difficult to navigate, and you have to tweak the barometer a bit but other than that, it's a great watch.

 "backlight could be better, indestructable, 4 years and still running" 2009-09-12
By JE (dublin, ca)
it's a g-shock. you probably will lose your arm before this watch breaks. analog dial g-shock looks cool. the minute hand moves 1/3 minute every 20 seconds. it has power management features, if you put it away for a while the display turns off, the hands stop. when you pick it up or push a button it wakes up and the hands reset to the correct time. fun to watch. starts conversations with guys who like g-shock watches.



my only complaints:

backlight is bright enough to light up the illuminated hands a little but it's nearly impossible to see the lcd display using the backlight in the dark.



face is small for today's fashion trends.



stopwatch is basic, hard to see, not a primary feature

 "excellent watch" 2009-05-14
By S. Heeraman (Trinidad)
i bought this watch because the band from my old on burst, this watch is really nice and sweet, excellent charging, and atomic time keeping is great the only draw back is the back light, it only covers from 9 to 3 straight across, but i guess the reason for the normal illumination light is because of the solar pannel on the watch itself..that why i give it a 55 star

 "Nice Watch" 2009-05-03
By Gary Sibilant
This is a decent watch, it's got Atomic Timekeeping (in the US) and it is also solar powered, so you can pretty much buy it and not have to set the time ever, all you do is wear it! It also has a cool party trick in that the watch illuminates when you move your arm to look at the time - but only when the watch senses that the ambient light is not good enough, in sunlight and good indoor lighting the watch illumination does not come on, pretty neat! The only bad thing about this watch is that the digital readout is rather small and not too practical. This keeps the watch from getting a 5 star rating from me.

 "Great watch." 2009-04-27
By Todd Humphrey
I love this watch. The recessed crystal protects it from getting all scratched up and the atomic time keeping function is great. I had a model almost identical to this for years and had no problems with it until I lost it so I had to replace it with the closest thing I could find. Great value on Amazon.

 "Excellent watch" 2009-04-16

I love this watch, it's solar-powered which means it doesn't need replacing of batteries, it's shock proof which means it's durable. Very good watch for its price.

 "Seen but not heard." 2009-09-12
By G. Nunnari
I have been looking for a long time for a replacement watch for my trusty, rugged 10-year-old G-Shock Digital. It still keeps time but it's really beat up. And since I often stay at hotels or nap in my car, I have been feeling the need for a new watch with a dependable alarm feature...preferably one with a snooze. So after much research, I ordered the WaveCepSolar. With its handsome, elegant quality and the sweep second hand, it's a real beauty! And not having to set/change time or batteries is simply the bomb! But its alarm function turned out to be a real joke! Very disappointing. When the alarm sounds, there's a tiny, barely audible tone (very faint and muted which lasts for only ten seconds then shuts off automatically) which wouldn't wake the lightest sleeper. I seriously doubt a dog more than 10 feet away could hear it. If expecting the alarm to remind me of an important meeting or objective while in a noisy work environment, forget it. I couldn't even hear it go off. I returned the watch for refund and am still looking for a replacement for my trusty, rugged ole G-Shock.

 "Great watch, terrible band" 2009-09-07
By Paul E. Seidel
A great watch once you have spent a lot of time deciphering the instructions under a magnifing glass. The main problem for me is the very uncomfortable watch band. It's a unique, semi-stiff resin of some kind that you can't change. If I snug it up, I get sore spots after a few hours. For my wrist, whether it's hot or cold outside, I can never find a comfort zone for wearing this strap and watch. Don't have this problem with any of my other 6 watches. It's now a nice atomic ornament on my dresser top.

 "Great Watch" 2009-09-06
By Larry A. Hamilton
This is a great watch. With the solar feature I will never have to buy a battery again and with the atomic time setting feature it is always exactly the right time. Casio does a great job. Would highly recommend.

 "Excellent choice" 2009-08-20
By dipling (CA)
I bought this watch couple months ago and use it very often. First of all the price is very reasonable and with amazon return policy you can't go wrong. I have few watches so this isn't my first one.

One thing about 'atomic' watches is that they have to be at cetain place to synchronize, but this one has very sensitive receiver and synchronizes everyday.

It has a lot of built-in functions some of them useless for me like 3 alarms because they aren't laud enough. Other like having other time zones, day date and you don't have to change the battery.

The sequence of initial setting is in wrong order in the manual. You have to set the daylight saving in your city before you select it as you local time zone, but this is minor. It is very accrate of course and light weight.

 "Nice, but... >>>UPDATE<<<" 2009-08-05
By C. Smith (Cleveland, OH)
Okay, I JUST received this watch yesterday. So, maybe things will change. First off, I love Casio watches. Good, and sometimes very cheap. Fun to buy and fun to wear and very accurate. This watch is beautiful. Nice domed crystal and attractive face. Precise hand movements and the hands are good quality compared to cheaper Casios. I love the band. It feels nicer and higher quality than cheaper Casios. One really nice aspect is that the end of the band (not the buckle end) has a little bulbous thickening at the end so it kind of snaps through the band loop and it retained. Nice quality touch.



(See Update below) Now, my only complaint so far, the radio seems weaker than my other atomic solar (G-Shock MT-G). The MT-G sets itself without fail even if I am wearing it at night and it is under my pillow in my bedroom - through 3 thick old-school plaster walls in a brick house in eastern Ohio. Strong.... This one seems less sensitive. I tried several times to synch it last night with errors each time - side by side my MT-G synched with no problem. Auto-synch over night failed too. This morning I got it to do a manual synch right around dawn. Since these quartz movements are so accurate, syncing every few days should keep it within a second or two. But that is NOT why you buy a waveceptor. You buy this watch to geek out on perfect time and reliable syncing. Maybe it will be better on a clear night, last night had a lot of clouds.



Overall, very nice watch. Very attractive and higher quality as expected from price compared to the $20 Casios. Waveceptor works, but not as sensitive as other models.



>>>>> Update <<<<< : Initial sync problems is resolved. It turns out that the battery was on MID charge. Although it was supposed ot have full function at MID, after charging to HI, sync works every night now. Solid watch.
