 Excellent watchNov 01, 2008
By R. Conyne
Impressions after 1 week:
I spent quite a bit of time looking for a watch that has all the features I wanted, and this fit the bill perfectly. I wanted analog + digital so I could have all the "nerdy" features I was after without looking like I'm wearing a "nerd" watch - something that would look as good at a formal dinner party as it would at the beach. I especially like the low-profile buttons on this watch (which work just fine despite their size).
Nuts and bolts: this Casio has 3 alarms (1 snooze), day/date calendar, dual time, multi-lap stopwatch, and most important to me, a countdown timer (why every digital watch doesn't have one in this day and age is beyond me). Note also that there is a digital sweep-second indicator that fills the little "windows" that surround the circumference of the dial. The illumination is of the "indiglo" variety and works great.
I think this watch looks very elegant and it seems to be well made - it has a solid, dependable feel. I really like the cobalt-blue dial (note that you can also get this watch with a white or black dial). The bracelet seems sturdy and well-made and it's comfortable on my wrist. It is not obscenely thick like some of the Casio G-Shock watches that look like you're wearing a small laptop computer on your wrist - nicely proportioned in thickness vs diameter.
Cons - the digital sweep second indicator is really too small and hard to see to be of much use except in the brightest light. The two LCD windows are a bit small if your eyesight is fading (but perfectly fine to my 46-year-old eyes). Note that these LCD windows are behind the analog hands so they will be obscured during certain times of the day, but then again, how often do you have to look up the day/date in a normal day?
Overall, two thumbs way up - I am completely satisfied. Far and away the best watch I found at this price, and I spent weeks looking at Amazon's offerings from Casio, Timex, Citizen, Pulsar, Fossil, and others.

 Great watch - but band not as describedOct 03, 2009
By Jeff in Easley
Great features, but the clasp isn't adjustable like they show in the picture. No instructions in the booklet that comes with it.
The online instructions that I've found elsewhere look complicated - need a paperclip, screwdrivers and pliers. I'll probably return it.

Flimsy construction, with a plastic, not metal caseSep 14, 2009
By K. Clark
I wanted a watch with digital functions, but with an analog face. Upon arrival, the Casio appears more like a plastic and metal toy than an adult's watch. It looks great in the pics until you hold it in your hands. The problem is that it's essentially a plastic case sandwiched between tin-foil-like metal shell coverings. I was so disappointed, I returned this watch for the much better made, Timex Men's Ironman Triathlon 42 Lap Combo Analog Digital Dress Watch #T56371 ($41.73 in August 2009), which at time of purchase was approximately ten dollars more than the Casio, yet is far more substantial in feel and construction. If you want this Casio, the lowest price I've seen on Amazon is $30.95 (as of August 2009), so shop wisely.

AWESOME WATCH, GREAT PRICE!Jun 10, 2009
By BOOSTED
This watch is amazing for the price I paid. Its very handsome and has a wide array of features. Its very light weight compared to my old ana-digi watch. If anyone was wondering, the dial is a metallic blue instead of a dull blue, and it looks great. The only cons I can see about this watch is that the button positions are different than my old watch and the free super saver shipping was really slow (ordered on the 31st and got it on the 9th). Great watch, great buy.

Great WatchJun 26, 2009
By Alton D. Flanders
I have had this watch about 2 months now and also have some atomic watches and this thing is dead on correct time. Like all the features and use them all. I wish the dial was a litlee lighter blue as it look black unless you hold it just right. Is acually deep purple than blue. Wouls buy again for looks,funtionality and price.
