I had been trying to purchase one of these styles of watches.. I finally got this particular version, and it's really nice, but I was a little 'meh' about the watch.. it's a little smaller than I thought they would be.. I can barely see the digital numbers, unless the lights just right or I've pressed the light button.. no hourly chime, one alarm (unlike the Casio siblings with multiple alarms). Still a nice watch to keep in my collection...

Watch face is too small. Minute hand is too long and it is easy to mistake the bottom end for the hour hand. The night light is absolutely useless as it does not even light up the watch face, only the very small digital display that I can only see by putting on my glasses. As it is a casio I am confident that I will get man years of reliable service from it. It is just a pity that I can not easily use it for it's intended purpose ie to be able to see the time at night as well as in the day.

I like the watch a lot, the reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is the following reasons. It seems that the only way you can set the analog dial hands is to press (1) button. You have to wait for it to go forward though all the hours of the day until you get to the time you want. If you go 2 minutes past, you CAN'T go backwards the 2 minutes. You have to go through the whole 12 hour day to get back 2 minutes. That seems like it would burn a lot of battery powers and its a PAIN in the ARS. I also don't like the fact that it has no BACKLIGHT, to light up the watch face so that its easier to see the time in the dark. The digital lights up but I have that set on month and day. The hands glow but very faintly if you haven't been out in the daylight for hours. Besides that its a great watch.

I bought my first G-Shock in the 70's and have had numerous since then. One of the things I have always loved is being able to tell the time in the dark because of the well lit face on demand. This watch is attractive but when you push the light button in the dark you find out what the date is. The luminescent hands only are visible for a short time after the lights go out. Other than that it is a nice, attractive watch with the typical G-Shock durability. If I were to do it over I would probably have researched a bit further and found one that was more to my liking. There are many styles in the G-Shock now.

Casio G shock watches are ideal for people working on equipment. They are fairly safe around electricity, oblivious to magnetic fields and the resin cases can take a lot of abuse without getting scarred up. I gave my nearly 20 year old one to one of our employees working as a printer and bought two new ones, one for myself and one for my son. I chose this model because it's a bit more conventional than many of the G shock series, simple hands and not a lot of gimmicks.
