I had the same type of watch for a long time but the strap broke so i thought that i would get another because I am very pleased with it. The new one is the same as the last except it has a stainles steel strape.
I have mant friends around the world so i can see what time it is in their countries plus that i am a sports person so i like the stop watch and It changes its self every half year for summertime and wintertime
I believe that it is a great watch.

Very reliable timepiece, spoiled by the inferior resin case. My previous (identical) watch failed at the point where the strap pin attaches to the case. Casio offer no repair for this inadequacy. However, Im prepare to try again.

Good modern design.
The braclet is not the most ideal design on a smallish size wrist due to the size of the links and clip, therefore is not a perfect wrist shape fit. Links have to be removed professionaly, its not an easy job.

Мы все плывем по реке времени и этом плавании мои новые прекрасные новые часы всегда напоминают мне не только который час,но и число,месяц,день недели,год,когда пора вставать...
Я легко перевел их на русский язык,поменял формат даты,укоротил браслет-все отлично,жаль только,что,что стекло не сапфир !

Replaced my older Casio model which died after many years of good service. Found it hard to find an economical digital face anywhere except here. Almost exactly the same features but more attractive layout.

The display on this watch is clear and concise. The date, however, is shown backwards in the illogical American style with the month first and the date second which I find somewhat irritating. Why the manufacturers cannot consider the preferences of users in other countries is a mystery. Surely it is easier to say, for example, the tenth day of the third month rather than the other way about. The watch itself is rather chunky but is OK. once you get used to it. There is nothing in the user instructions as to how to adjust the strap which is accomplished by the removal of some of the links. These are very difficult to remove and the service of a watch repairer will probably be required.

This product does exactly what it is intended to do - provide an accurate time check, while offering facilities such as alarm and countdown. And having a silver metal bracelet means it will not wear out as quickly as those offered with a resin strap. One downside is the instruction booklet. It is very small and difficult to handle while the user is setting the features.

Stylish and practical. It is functional with a clear display for the time but the date is much smaller. Only 1 alarm.

I got this watch for myself after my last one stopped working. This one is very comfortable to wear. It came already set up but reading the instruction booklet it would be very simple to do. I also like that the time is always correct, being radio controlled. If you want a smart easy to use and very comfortable watch then I highly recommend this one.

Great service. The watch is exactly as illustrated and described. The price was very competitive compared with similar watches elsewhere. From ordering to delivery took less than 24 hours, even though the bracelet needed alteration before despatch, to fit my wrist.Finally, I received several emails describing the progress of my watch.

very good value .Exellent features. I like the radio control feature and the display,also having back light. Did not like the use of plastic on watch body, I would prefer all stainless steel and would pay extra for this.

The most unbeatable of watches for the money. It does everything and more. World time zones, alarms, stopwatch, countdown timer and night light. Very easy to use and extremely accurate (to about 1 second a day) with adjustments made through the night to bring it back to full sync with radio controlled signal - so basically, it's never more than one second out.

Very robust and durable with a clear display and curved function buttons which are just the right size.

I took this watch on holiday across Europe and did not worry about banging it, ping it or getting it wet. It looked great with a tee shirt as well as when I was more smartly dressed.

I do have more expensive watches but this did the job for my holiday and as mentioned above, an absolutely fabulous watch for the money.

The watch is really nice looking. It feels and looks like a 200 pounds watch. Setting up the time was easy, it took a few seconds. It got synchronized with the satelite. I check the time on my computer and it is synchronized to the second, which is great. I would recommend his watch.

A bad point is that it is really hard to adjust it to your wrist. Even if the people at WatchShop removed a few links as I requested, my calculations were wrong, and I had to take it to a watch shop to have it adjusted again.

The watch does everything I wanted and shows the time, full date and day of the week all without any button pushes. The time remains completely accurate courtesy of the radio connection to an atomic clock. I have had previous Casio watches and this one lives up to expectations.

great looking watch looks a lot more expensive than it appears, great at keeping to the second as the auto update works well. Looks and feels like a watch that would cost a couple of hundred pounds, great light to see in the dark stop watch and timer as well as different time zones which was already set up for me from the watch shop after they had removed the excess links i did not need in the watch all i needed to do was wear it , GREAT PURCHASE...

Great Watch! although the day after I bought it, I found it was cheaper on Amazon.co.uk :(

The only issue I found is the watch strap which is very hard to adjust yourself.



Take my advice, SEND IN YOUR WRIST MEASUREMENT WHEN YOU ORDER ONLINE and the nice people at the watch shop will take out the extra links and save you the hassle and expense of taking it to a jewellers to take out some links. This saving, and the fact that postage is free, would mean that it works out at about the same price as amazon, (which do not offer the strap adjustment service).

The Watch is brilliant.

The strap was too big and there were no instructions for taking links out.

This is a really neat watch.

The wave ceptor works really well for me (It doesn't need to be beside a window or anything for it to work) it's actually really useful to have a really acurate watch. The display's nicely set out, I like the light, useful to have the time in the corner when in other modes, as with all watches, I use the alarm all the time. The metal strap is confortable, It's great to have the right number of links taken out for you.

All in all, great watch.

I wanted a digital watch with a stainless steel bracelet for every day use, that also gave me the day and date, and this was the best I could find. The watch is designed to set itself to the right time from a broadcast signal which is great for travelling but not all areas are covered. However, you are supposed to set it manually at first but I didn't need to - it sorted itself out. A nice clear watch face which is easy to read with a comfortable bracelet that fastens with a decisive click. The alarm signal is too quiet. The biggest problem was the need to shorten the bracelet as no instructions were given. It doesn't use the usual pins. The good old internet helped, although I couldn't find the exact design, I got enough information to figure out what to do. Overall a very good, value for money, digital watch.

A good looking and accurate watch. I can even read the date without needing to put reading glasses on!



It would have been nice if instructions ad been included on how to adjust the watch strap to fit me. It seems silly to have to take a new watch to a watch supplier to get it adjusted.

from the description and features, this looked like a very good watch for the price. when it arrived it did everything i expected, love the fact it set the time automaticaly



now ive worn it for a week the case has already scratch, the metal coating is wearing away, it plastic underneath, and the botom half of the case is also plastic and not cover in metal.



cheaper watches ive had are all metal.

what your paying for is the electronic features, not the casing.



overall this is a good cheap utility watch, that if you happy to have to replace when it gets too tatty is fine

The problem with Casio is that its product is so well constructed that it keeps working on and on. 2 previous Casio watches had to be given away in working condition because I wanted a new one. Each lasted me more than 10 years. I hope this watch outlasts me.

Many people need to have the time of 2 places at the same time, like London and New Delhi. Radio is the future.

I bought this watch because of its good price and the wave ceptor technology.dont have to worry about the correct time because it updates itself everynight so i can be sure of the correct time.it also includes features like world time, stop watch and countdown timer so pretty good use of these functions.Personally,i am pretty satisfied with this watch and most importantly the price offered by the watch shop.

Don't buy it unless you want grief using the timer. In timer mode, the watch will sometimes revert to factory default settings if you press a certain key (D, the one that's at 4 o'clock). It doesn't always happen, and that's why I won't be sending mine back, because they'll just say they can't replicate the error. Anyway, I've had to have links taken out now, because the braclet is for a weightlifter's biceps, not my wrist, so they probably wouldn't take it back, anyway. This resetting is annoying, because you then have to set it to look for the signal from the Rugby atomic clock, wait three minutes for it to set, and then make any customising adjustments you require, such as D/M rather than M/D. This seems to happen only in timer mode. As I say, it doesn't always occur, but it's doing it often enough to cause problems. I don't know whether this is a known fault. If it is, and Casio or the Watch Shop wishes to email me, fine (I've had to include my email address with this, so they can pick it up). I'll think twice before buying Casio products in future.
