Amazing watch 5 stars! Second one I own. I lost the other one. Best watch, stylish and more manly looking, and less ridicilous looking thn most G-Shock Watches.

The solar power and atomic clock radio receiver are nice, you don't have to be concerned with battery replacement or resetting the time. The world time zones are nice since I often need to communicate with others in another country. The all black plastic case and band are light weight and give a look and feel of early days digital watches. As a co-work reminded me, this looks like the watch the dog would get a hold of and chew up... it looks a bit "inexpensive" or try low profile given it's technical features. The buttons are hard to push as stated by other reviews, but this will assure settings are not changed accidentally. The case provides good protection around the crystal if you are concerned about scratching potential. Ultimately I think I would have been happier with a metal case and band, but I was attracted to the yellow face.
Great Watch!!!! December 17, 2009

This is a great looking watch. Better outside than in the picture. I wanted to write a blog/review about the specific atomic sync functionality, which I couldn't find in google or any other review, about how the watch syncs up time. I thought of writing this down, so if somebody is looking on how this works, before buying the watch, they can read my review.
When i read the specifications online on Amazon that the watch syncs with US/UK/Japan Cesium clocks, i thought i can sync the time whenever i want,by pressing a button, but its not that way. In US its going to sync with the clock in Colorado. It might work, but not all over the US I guess. I tried at different places in NJ, but it always showed a weak signal ( L1) or sometimes no signal at all, after some time it used to error out( i.e., failed to sync). Its clearly mentioned in the booklet like weather, tall buildings might affect the signal, but one don't get to read the booklet until they buy the watch. So i thought of sharing my opinion on this feature.
I almost decided to return the watch as the sync functionality failed, whenever i tried to sync up the time manually, it used to error out. L1 is weak and L3 is strong signal, the watch displays the signal strength when one tries to manually sync the time. There is second option to auto-sync with the atomic clock, for this i had to leave the watch near a window at night, so between 12:00am and 5:00am it tries to sync with the atomic clock. This worked for me. But when I left the watch inside my house ( not near a window) at night, it couldnt receive the signal. So whenever i want to auto-sync I leave it near a window. So now I dont have any issues with the sync.
I couldn't get this information before i bought the watch, so thought of sharing my view on this functionality. Now i decided to keep the watch, as this feature works ( in auto mode) and its a great looking piece.
Great watch! November 28, 2009

Totally bombproof. Comfortable too, due to the wide band I suppose. You don't know it's there until you need to know the time or date. Sure you can spend more on a watch but why would you? Too bad this is a limited edition. Get one while they last. Casio would be insane not to let this one stay in the catalog but they still have it listed as a 25th anniv limited. I've been considering picking up a spare just in case they do the unthinkable. This watch does not wear like a hockey puck either. Nice and flat on the wrist unlike some Gs. I wish six stars would have been an option. It's THAT good!

Received this watch as a holiday gift and it hasn't left my wrist.
The sync function works flawlessly when placed on my windowsill facing west.
I have received many positive comments on it's style and the awestruck,"What kind of watch is that!"
I love this watch as it brings me back to 25 years ago when I wore an original G.
One can never go wrong with Casio.
You just finished shopping : Click on this one and be glad you did.
