Casio GW500A-1V G-Shock Atomic Solar Watch
Positive Review:
> December 30, 2012
This is my second Casio GW500A watch.The first, which I have had for
many years, needed a new band after being abused with many chemicals and
UV from the sun. I decided to buy a new one rather than just the band.
The old watch still works perfectly, always with the exact time, due to
the atomic feature, and never needing a new battery, due to the solar
charging. It is probably 12 to 15 years old. Before I retired a few
years ago, it was constantly subjected to strong magnetic fields, harsh
chemicals, vibration from air and electric hammers, and other abuses
that industrial maintenance offers, but still worked perfectly. I would
highly recommend this watch.

This is the best watch I have ever owned to wear around the house, go to
the gym and also to wear it when doing work around town. I bought
several watches that are luxury and very advanced but I still find
myself always coming back to this watch. It is simple yet sophisticated
and provides a precious time. My fav. feature is when you are in the
dark and you turn the watch to your face it will automatically light up
the screen and you can actual see the time without pressing any buttons.
Simply amazing and I strongly recommend it.

I purchased this watch in July 2012 by December 2012 the battery would
not hold a charge. Before buying this watch please read the people who
rated this watch with one or two stars. You will save yourself money

I loved this watch. Wore it for 2 years. Watch eventually wouldn't hold a
charge and went blank. Now here's the problem: You can't just go into
any jeweler and buy a new battery. If you send it back to Casio, it
costs almost as much as I spent for the watch. So what do people do?
They toss them. Fantastic technology cheap. But the battery is the weak
point.
