Like it a lot....some getting used to....
By R. Sardina
First of all it's a casio, and with that comes the fact that it will take a beating and not quit...Really like the fact that the city codes it shows for the time zones are more in line with major cities that you may actually go to. Love that the world time is set up so you can see home time above the city in the world you may be in. Handy for when I gotta call my wife at home and I'm in a different time zone. Getting used to the dark display, my other casios all have the lighter screen...People criticize the timer, but for me it's excellent due to the fact you can do a long enough time option to cover any flight (since I work on airplanes, that's a great thing). I also like the strap, even though it's rubber, and usually they scratch or dig into my skin. The looks are great.Now, to the negative...the alarms are very low compared to my other casios...and the even though the led options are great for the alarm/timer/etc., I wish it was like in the "mudman" where the whole circumference of the watch seemingly lights up. Unless it is really dark around you it's not that noticeable.Only give it four stars because I can't sync the alarm to the city of the world I may be in, and because the alarm isn't loud enough for me....As far as a watch and for the price....it's an excellent buy, perfect size if you have a smaller wrist. Good luck!!!

Extra "Perks"...
By M_
Like all Multi Functional G-Shock Models this one is loaded!2 options I found that were extremely helpful.The first of which is contrast adjustment. I was reluctant to go with the negative display (Light digits on a Black background) but it looks so cool I took a chance. The contrast can be adjusted to bring out the digits in different lighting conditions. A first for Casio as far as I know.The second perk is a "flash" alert. There are two led's embedded at 6 o'clock that flash when an alarm event is activated. Countdown/Alarm/Hourly etc... Perfect for when I'm wearing headphones and can't hear the tone!There are a lot of features packed into this baby..."Casio-files" will LOVE IT!!!

Finally, a Sleek G-Shock
By Erik S.
This is my second G-Shock watch. Before this one, I had a "Riseman", which I found to be too bulky. Moreover, all of the gadget functions on it weren't all that accurate or useful.I still liked the G-Shock line, though, and when I saw this one, I decided it was time to buy another G-Shock. I am so completely satisfied with this one, and I love it.The adjustable contrast on the negative display is a nice function, but leaving it at the middle setting (4) - even in dim lighting - is fine. It's very, very legible, and I don't know what others have complained about. I was worried that I was buying the negative display for the 'coolness' at the sacrifice of clarity, but I'm happy with the display and find it to be no detriment to visibility.The alarm is loud and high pitched. Very audible. The customizable by day and time functions of the alarms and signal are super handy. For instance, my hourly signal is active from 0800 hours through 2000 hours, and then it shuts off so as not to wake me while I sleep. Truly a set-it-and-forget-it function. Brilliant. I think the most wonderful function of the alarm, though, is the two flashing LED lights that go off when it's sounding; No problem finding the watch in the early dark hours to shut the chime off.The stop watch, with memory, is really great. I do use it for running, but I've found that it's equally useful for timing flight legs during navigation. This watch is clearly built for athletic training, but it's turned out to be my favorite flight watch, now, because of the stop watch display and the great back-lighting of the face.The calendar and world time functions are great - particularly if you work in an environment that uses ISO date settings and you need such things. I just leave it on the day of the year count because it's sort of neat to watch.Lastly, and most importantly, this G-Shock doesn't hog all of the real estate on my wrist. I have normal sized wrists, and this G-Shock is sleek and thin compared to others. It goes in and out of a shirt cuff without getting hooked, feels very light on the wrist, and is really a joy to wear all day long.Some have commented about the lack of Tough Solar charging. I'll be honest: with all of the bells and whistles on this watch (literally) like the LEDs and multiple sounds (which, incidentally can be muted by holding the "mode" button for a few seconds), the solar charging would be running out of power frequently. Furthermore, since it doesn't push out of my sleeve cuff and stay in the sun-light, I don't have to worry about it getting a charge to keep running. This watch probably needs good ol' fashioned battery power to keep up with the demand for all of it's neat functions.
