Use this to calibrate all your other clocks
By M. Carlson
You'll never get me to spend a lot of money on a watch after wearing this thing. Digital, solar, atomic and well under a hundred bucks. Quite a cool little gadget. I've had this for 2 years and still love it.Solar means that it charges the battery with ambient light. No batteries to replace. Atomic means that it receives the atomic time radio broadcasts at the top of the hour from Midnight to 5am. The clock displays REC while it's calibrating. Takes about 5 min each time to calibrate. Every day, your watch is dead on. Forget daylight savings time changes. This watch does it for you.The only extremely-minor annoyance with the watch is travelling to Europe and looking at the watch only to see REC filling the display for 5 minutes around lunch time. I'm sure there's a way to turn the receive mode off temporarily. The watch only receives the atomic signal from Boulder CO in the 48 contiguous states.Will this last forever? Don't know yet. Two years and no setting, winding, or battery changes needed so far.

I've been bragging about this watch for years...
By Carl
I bought this watch for 30 bucks more than it is being sold for here a couple of years ago and I can't stop bragging about how I own the best watch in the world. It sets itself every night and it is always perfectly accurate. The display is easy to read. I swim and snorkel while wearing this watch with no ill effect. Stretching to say SOMETHING negative about this watch I'll say this. I live in New York City where there is SO much signal interference that the watch has to be positioned JUST so in order to catch the signal at night, but it does catch it. Neither of my solar clocks work any better here. Outside of the city it will catch the signal coming out of Colorado in any position anywhere within 2,000 miles of Colorado.You want a piece of jewelry that will never keep the best time, get a Patek Philippe. You want a WATCH, by all means, buy this. Then brag to your friends who wear the Pateks and the Rolex.

Excellent time keeper!
By Titaniumneck
I have had this watch for about 3 years. I use it because of the atomic time signal it receives. Several instruments I audit are required to be set to within 1 minute per month. With this watch, there is no question what time it is. It does not always receive the signal, so you have to be a little careful where you leave it at night, just like the instructions tell you. I have worn this watch swimming, in the shower, in a sauna, and other extreme places with no problem.ps: I also have an original G-Shock with a 16 year old lithium battery that is working just fine. I greatly endorse Casio products.
