Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

Amazing lightweight, rugged, super accurate solar watch. It's no bigger than an apple watch or a fitbit versa 3 and it's lightweight and feels good on the hand. The resin band is nice and soft and comfortable, similar to my gw5000u-($250+watch).

Excellent service from the seller. Packed well, came with original tin box and paperwork. The item was shipped withing hours.

If i ever traveled, all of have to do is select a preset time zone and it would correct for wherever i am in the world. I do wish casio would include the auto-repeat countdown timer. It has the updated 3496 module which displays the time in stop watch...  Read More

The screen is clean and crisp. The alarm/timer beeper is very quiet. If alarm volume is important to you, the gw-6900-1 is the way to go; it's much more audible.

Led light for illuminating screen. Low profile, classic-geek styling. Super light, not too bulky.



Cons

The manual come only in japan language. Only in japan according to vendor. The others function are sufficient and all ok.

Shipping


78 not including the extra i paid for shipping, this rugged shtf watch is well worth the purchase.


Seller had the option for faster shipping and i paid extra for ups 2nd day air.

Packaging/appearance


Was dead set on solar to avoid a poorly timed battery failure.

Competitiveness


You have the solid, build of a g-shock with solar and water resistant of course, but no fancy bells and whistles .


A true classic g-shock that should be in everyone’s collection.

So to readers considering saving money by buying a non-solar g-shock, check how much it will cost to replace and pressure test the battery.
