 "Good after pump-priming" 2010-01-10
By Andrew Ellis (Lafayette, CA USA)
I was concerned how good the coverage would be from the WWVB 60 kHz transmitter in Fort Collins, CO, that this watch uses. My home is over 900 miles (1500 km) from it.



Once you set your time zone, the watch tries to sync itself five times during the overnight (On Pacific Standard Time, it happens on the hour starting at midnight.) The watch reports whether it synced correctly, and on which attempt.



The first few nights, no sync. But after I forced a manual sync, which failed, the automatic function started working! No explanation for why it happened that way, but it did. Since then, it manages to sync about 75% of the nights, and that's while it's on my wrist, not placed in a window as the manual suggests.



The result is that the watch is always correct to the second, compared with a GPS master clock system at my work.



I'm very satisfied with this product.

 "Great watch!" 2009-12-03
By Jonna40 (New Jersey)
This was exactly the type of watch my husband was looking to buy. I bought it for him for his birthday and he is completely satisfied.

 "A great watch for pool/sports" 2009-07-21
By RSRCHB4UBY (CA USA)
This is a nice looking, comfortable watch that has more functions than I need.



I purchased this watch for the pool and it works great for this purpose. The user interface is very intuitive: I was able to figure out all functions without opening the manual.



I particularly like the automatic time set function. The watch receives a radio signal from the US atomic clock daily and sets the correct time automatically.



Overall, I am very happy with this watch, and at fewer than thirty dollars I consider it a great value.

 "5 Star expectation; 4 Star reality" 2009-08-19
By A. M. Springer (Penn Valley, CA USA)
Rather than reiterate what other 4 star reviewers have provided, and they are spot on, let me tell you a little more. I am a watch guy as is my son, who as a 24 year Air Force guy who really is into super complicated chrono's. My tastes are more basic than his and when I saw this very well featured Casio Atomic available for only $250, I ordered it. A few nits to pick are that it is very difficult to size and also complicated to set up with very small indices and a miniature sized manual which is hardly bigger than a match book. Anyone remember what those are?



Be very careful when re-sizing! Even if you are fairly well skilled at this and have professional style tools, including a pin remover, the Casio pins employ a minuscule sleeve style keeper that is placed inside the drilled tunnel of the inner/male side of the link. Super caution must be taken not to loose these itty bitty micro-sleeves when pushing out the pins. If lost, you will NOT be able to re-secure the pins. Unlike other brands such as Citizen who use flared ends on their link pins, Casio has what I would consider an inferior design and it is very unfriendly to novices. Not skilled? Take it to a jeweler.



As to setting up the watch, well let's just say first that you need very good eyesight and perhaps a magnifying glass. The instructions are just OK and unless you've been through similar drills before, you may need to repeat steps. Pushing button "A" for about 5 seconds and waiting to hear a 'beep' is a lesson in frustration tolerance and unless you have super hearing, forget the beep...unless you are holding the watch to your ear. However, after going through all the set up steps (more than once) the watch runs beautifully thereafter. Remember, this is a perpetual calendar watch so the original set up is critical to being in the right year, month and date. Miss a step and you may need to make monthly adjustments for short months and days of the week.



Once it is properly set, however, this is a deadly accurate and quite good looking timepiece with lightweight durable construction. It's the best Solar Atomic Analog Chronograph for the price. If you're a digital person there are other choices but for my money, traditional analog is still better looking than any digital display. If the small dial is a problem for your eyes, you may be better off looking at an alternative Citizen model but be prepared to pay more.

 "Love the watch!" 2009-04-07
By GoBlueFan (Worthington, Ohio USA)
Legendary G-shock ruggedness combined with analog 5-motor display. This is solar and atomic, so I never have to worry about adjusting the watch (even for daylight savings time)or having to open the case to change the battery. When I first got the watch, I got paranoid when it didn't sync with the time signals from the "atomic clock" at Fort Collins, CO. I finally figured out that it syncs best if you leave it face up on a table. Now it syncs every night and I am not near Colorado (I live in Ohio).



The stainless steel bracelet needed to be sized so I took it to a jewelry store. I felt funny since it was a fancy store with $70,000 Patek Phillipe watches and Rolexes for sale, but the salesperson adjusted the band for free. I did buy a band pin tool from Amazon to try to adjust the band myself, but haven't been brave enough to try to use it.



Pros:



Excellent time keeper-I use this to set my other watches and clocks

Excellent overall appearance of case and band



Cons:



Display a little small, and the surrounding bezel obscures part of the dial markings. The markings themselves are very small and difficult to read.



Average lume, so just OK for night time display.



The deployment clasp on the band does not lie flush with the bracelet. Not sure why, but it does seem secure.

 "Good Watch - a few glitches" 2009-03-20
By Shaka Zulu (Los Angeles CA USA)
OK, I received this watch (bought it not seeing it in person) from Amazon a few days ago and have been playing with it. A few points not mentioned in any review or blog that I've read about the MTG1000-9A.

1. Yes the watch case is big (~44 mm), but the watch face under the crystal is not that big (I measure 28 mm diameter). Thus, all the markings in the dial are smaller than you'd expect in a big 44 mm watch. So if you have eyes over 40 yrs. old, it's a struggle to read the lettering under 1 mm in size.

2. Gold on black color scheme of watch is very cool, but the world city names/time zones around the dial are in faint gold paint on a black background and sub 1 mm in size, so they are very hard to read at least for me.

3. Stopwatch can only time events up to 1 hour. If you want to time a 2-hour exam, or a 90 minute parking meter, you can't use the stopwatch. Countdown timer starts at max of 1 hour so you cannot count down from longer than that either. Kind of disappointing for me.

4. Stopwatch does not beep when you push start or stop. No way to turn on a beep either. Since the pushbuttons also do not have a tactile click, it's difficult to know when the stopwatch has been started or stopped except by looking at the moving hands.

5. As someone else mentioned, a minor nitpick: moving from home time to world time or alarm set time requires the big minute and hour hands to slowly spin around the dial, and takes a bit to get to their intended locations.

6. Smallish dial is sunken into watch face and raised plastic bezel around crystal creates the feeling of looking into a deep well. Because of this, even less light gets to dial face and again, makes deciphering the tiny sub 1 mm markings challenging unless watch is under bright light.

8. No LED backlight like in the Casio MTG1500. The luminous paint used here is OK, but Casio should have used Superluminova paint for a $200-$300 watch.

7. On plus side, plastic and stainless steel combination looks great, appears to be rugged. Very nice adjustable metal band with solid links. Exposed machine screw heads make the watch look of quality. Despite being 44 mm wide and 14 mm thick, watch is very light and comfortable to wear. I live in Southern California so time synch with Fort Collins was easy. Finally, every watch hand aligns with their tick marks precisely; none of that misalignment you see in $1500 Swiss Tag quartz watches.

 "not a disappointment at all!!!" 2009-02-25
By Amari Grant
this has to be one of the better "everyday" watches i've ever purchased thus far. as you can see it's a "sporty" watch with a casual look to it so it looks great for wear on most occasions. you never have to worry about setting the time no matter where you go 'cause it sets itself (kinda like your cable box)!!!

all in all, it's the perfect watch to have and wear for "everyday" purpose.

 "Beware of Buying Watches from Amazon.com" 2009-02-07
By Learned a Lesson (Alabama USA)
I bought the Casio G-Shock MTG as a gift for my son from Amazon.com for $288.58. Shortly thereafter I found the same watch advertised on and sold by Amazon.com for $250.00. I called the customer service number to ask for a price match and a credit of $38.58. Instead of getting someone to address my concern I had to speak to a person in an Indian call center who wasn't the least bit interested in listening to what I had to say. I asked to be transferred to someone with authority in the US who understood English, which they refused to do. Now I'm out $38.58 plus the 26 minutes from being placed on hold and dealing with a customer non-service representive. Buyer beware!
