CasioCasio G-Shock Digital Herren-Armbanduhr

This is a fantastic watch, it's my first G-Shock so I wasn't too sure what to expect besides toughness.Pros- Solar powered, so no need to change batteries.- Atomic timing, the watch automatically calibrates the time up to 7 times a day ensuring 100% accuracy to the second. I hate that most watches drift out by a few seconds every month. A watch should always give me an accurate time, that is it's only prupose for me.- Negative display and watch face looks slick, can even get away wearing it with business wear. It wouldn't be too out of place.- Extra features such as timer, stopwatch, alarm and world time (all without having to change the battery).- Comfortable strap and low profile for people with skinny feminine wrists like me.Cons- While the negative display is a pro I can also vouch for the other reviews, it can SOMETIMES be awkward to read the time. You have to move your wrist a little to ensure the light isn't reflecting off the screen.All in all, a solid watch which gives me everything I need. The negative display is not a show stopper by any means, I chose it because it just looks better and less nerdy than a positive display (no offense to the positive display advocates).

Bought this as I love G Shock watches and fancied a negative display G Shock for a change , It arrived super quick as always from Amazon especially as I have Amazon prime. The watch is usual high standardd of construction from G Shock. The inside of the strap is in red and really sets of an otherwise black on black with dark display watch .My only small concerns are it's not solar powered so requires a battery change every few years , but I knew this was the case when I ordered it and was willing to accept that but be aware if you are used to G Shocks solar models.The display was very clear and legible for a neg display BUT not good enough for me to see at a quick glance when driving or taking a quick time check look . I wear glasses and am short sighted and ultimately this was the watches undoing for me so I had to return it for a Hassle Free return 5 star service from Amazon there .In conclusion great watch BUY IT ....BUT if you wear glasses or your eyesight is not that of a young person under 30 with no issues be aware that the NEG display as good as it is may still be the thing that becomes the deal breaker for you when you try the watch in person.

...ever. Casio wrist watches were on my wrist as a kid. This was a purchase for everyday use, something that will inevitably get battered by me as I manage to break everything eventually. I love the retro look, the dark face and simple to set control, the fact it's solar and shock proof and auto time setting is incredible. It doesn't have the longest strap, I'd say I have average wrist size and I'm 4 holes from the end. The case and bezel are smaller than I thought, but it's different to the thick, chunky looking G-Shock models. I quite like the smaller size as it adds to the retro look.But I digress, I really like it and that's the key thing to a watch. Wear it because you want to. Ultimately, it's no Rolex or Omega or any other nice 'Jewelry' watch, but as a daily driver, you won't cry if you beat it senseless or get mugged for it (however, I'm not sure robbers take Casio). If Covid19 proves to be the end of civilization, at least I'll know what time it is in a post-apocalyptic world. Zombies included.

It is true that the negative display is not so easy to read at some angles and especially in low light.It took a couple of 'charges' on window sill in bright sunlight to reach and maintain H high level of charge. Once that was achieved I tried the automatic time update. This worked successfully every night so far just after 2am. The watch receives the signal in South Devon 300 miles away from the transmitter in Yorkshire.The stopwatch and timer are fine. It's a good watch.It felt/looked strange after having an analogue G-Shock. I thought I'd wasted my money. It looks cool and is so light it is hardly noticable. Now I have a 'square' I will be looking at an analogue next. And in future I'll opt for positive LCD.

Absolutely fantastic watch, it has everything you really need in a watch, it's very robust (I've hit it off many things at work) solar charging means theres no need to worry about a battery, several alarms are handy for shift workers and it keeps time very accurately.I've heard complaints about poor visibility in low light. This is more to do with the sharper contrast you get on normal digital watches. It's perfectly readable and it has an auto lum function anyway.

It's a nice size on my average adult male wrist and it looks good. It arrived fully charged and set to the correct time, showing that the time signal radio reception was working. But the negative display is very poor, it's almost impossible to read in low light, and in bright light the screen's very reflective so you have to hold it at exactly the right angle to read it. There's a button to illuminate the display, but that's not particularly bright and it turns off after about 2 seconds. The watch can be set to illuminate automatically when you tilt your wrist to read it, but that doesn't always work. And the buttons are very small and recessed so you have to use your fingernail to press them. As a right hander it's very awkward to press the ones on the left side of the watch.On the positive side I've had no problems getting a radio signal, so the time is always correct. It's light and comfortable on the wrist and and not overly large like many of the other G Shocks.

I love this watch. It's tough whilst also being small on the wrist unlike the bulky G Shocks. Looks great with the negative screen. However, sometimes its not always clear to read so you need to tilt to see. That is my only criticism. Otherwise, fantastic watch and I would highly recommend.
