digital technology. As a company with cutting-edge electronic
technology developed for pocket calculators, Casio entered this field
confident that it could develop timepieces that would lead the market

Amazon.com Product Description
A great choice for globetrotters, this stylish Casio analog-digital stainless steel watch for men combines the timeless look of an analog watch with the functionality of a digital watch. The round watch case has a raised bezel that frames the silvery blue dial, which includes a full Arabic numeral display and luminous dagger-style hands. A digital window sits above 6 o'clock displays time from a second time zone, thanks to the integrated world time function with 29 time zones (30 cities). You can also store short notes on the 30-page databank (with 8 letters and 6 numerals per page). The watch includes a stopwatch that can time events down to 1/100 of a second, and features a 24-hour capacity, split time, and 1st-2nd place times, as well as a countdown timer with a 24-hour capacity. Other timekeeping features include four daily alarms (with one snooze alarm), hourly time signal (which can be turned off), and 12/24-hour formats. This watch also offers a ±30-second accuracy per month, Afterglow backlighting, Auto Calendar (pre-programmed until the year 2039), and water resistance to 165 feet (50 M) -- offering protection from accidental splashes as well suitable for swimming, snorkeling, and light recreational diving. It has a battery life of up to 10 years.

 Watch out for the band adjustment September 6, 2010
Marv
I was quite pleased with the watch as received. However, the band was too large for my wrist. There were no instructions for adjusting the band included in the shipment.. I therefore contacted Casio for adjustment procedures and subsequently received them.. I'm pretty handy with tools but I can say that 98 percent of those buying this watch would not be able to make the adjustment. If given to a watch repair shop the cost to perform the band adjustment would surely cost more than the watch purchase.
 Great watch in the light August 15, 2010
DWalker
I love the watch as long as there is plenty of light.
Unfortunately it is unreadable in the dark even with the backlight.
broke back on the mountain August 12, 2010
Pato Malo (Atlanta, GA USA)
This is my second Casio of this style. I like the look of the face, the stainless band, and the dual display. But there are two salient problems in have found in both watches:
--changing the time (both analog and digital) is so unintuitive that I either copied the pages from the manual when I traveled or I waited until I got to an internet cafe to take a look at the manual online. Not a deal breaker for me, I knew this issue when I bought my second watch.
--the back of the case is plastic, and it easily fractures when any stress is applied from the strap spring. This is a major design problem, and both of my watches broke in the same place. Once this happens, the watch is a goner. Of course, a metal back would have prevented this issue and anyone could expect that a major watch manufacturer who bills a watch as a sports model would build a watch so that the spring breaks, not the watch itself.
The first time this happened, I chalked it up to bad luck and ponied up the small change for another watch. The second time it happened, with a watch less than 6 months old, I fumed and sent it back for warranty repair. I just got the repair estimate today, and it is more dollars than a new watch, when the whole deal should have been free.
Looks like a sports watch, is advertised as a sports watch, but don't believe it!
died after 2 months July 22, 2010
R. Beauchamp (Manteca, CA USA)
Inexpensive, not particularly attractive, and lasted only two months. I paid $5.65 to ship it for warranty repair a week ago. Will I ever see it again? Who knows... Guess I'll get a Timex.
decent while it lasted July 10, 2010
L. Saechao (san jose, ca)
the watch claims to have a 10 year battery. i would have been satisfied with at least half of that but the watch died in one year and three months. it is a hassle to program the time, daylight savings was always a pain. i always had to either pull out the manual or look up directions online. lack of contrast makes it a bit more difficult to tell time. it is fairly cheap, so i guess you get when you pay for.
