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.

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.

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.

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.

I can't figure out to to change the time to military time anyone have an idea?
