Pros & Cons
Pros
The wave ceptor syncs itself to wwv atomic time by the built-in radio. The time is always current, even when the time zone changes. Timekeeping mode requires the user to select a 12- or 24-hour format.
The case and band are stainless so there is no flaking off of cheap metal. Bracelet is super easy to adjust to size and feels nice on the wrist.
Never fails to stay on time and no battery hassles. Only complaint is the alarm should be louder but not a big deal. This one has even better radio sensitivity - the first one usually required i leave it on the window sill overnight to receive.
Instruction manual isn't the easiest to follow, but the operation is not overly complicated. Google casio module 5161 manual. Then select operation guide (pdf) the small tool they provide is outstanding.
Your watch gets banged around a lot. Some people are hesitant but it's used a lot in there g shock design watches.
Cons
At $160 it is absurd. Even at $80 it is ridiculous. I have $25 watches that perform better than this for longer periods of time (pun intended) horrible directions to set it up. I find it disappointing.

I highly recommend casio solar atomic watches, try one, you won't be disappointed.
Price
This watch is an incredible deal for the price.
Don't hesitate with this one for this price.
A few days later the price was lowered to $70.
A sapphire crystal would have been better but the price of the watch would have been much higher.
Competitiveness
Although this watch may not be top of the line, high-end brand name, it is an attractive, useful watch, very accurate, usually ... Read More
The bezel on mine has some very small scratches but over all its held up like a champ.
Even high-end watches don't take the time to do this.
Thus, to get utc to display in a 24-hour format on the digital display, my local time also has to display in a 24-hour format; ... Read More
