I bought this to replace a less expensive version of a very similar, non-solar Casio watch. That watch failed after 1 year. The solar watch aspect I view as a limitation because it is best charged off wrist in a window, usually when I want to use it! The negative consequence of the limited power supply is a very, very weak alarm,-its barely audible. This is MUCH worse than it battery powered counterpart which I valued as a morning wake up call. Unfortunately that watch has a cheap (plastic) case whose metal coated finished looked good at first, but quickly disappeared, not to mention the watch continually reset itself.

Solar recharging of watches like the WVM120 may work fine in Arizona but here in the northeast, the best we can do in the winter is cloudy day recharging. According to Casio, it is recommended that you charge your watch in a cloudy window for 48 minutes a day. I'm used to wearing my watch during the day and don't want to take it off for an hour every day to charge it. If you are in an office environment, it's even worse - you have to point your watch at the ceiling lights for 8 hours each day to keep it charged. How do you manage that??
It's necessary to keep the watch charged in the upper 2 of 5 levels or you start to lose functions. Should you have the misfortune of using the lamp too many times at night or have the watch in your sleeve for too many days, you could discharge below the upper levels. For a total recharge, even in Arizona, you have to put it on your picnic table outside for 6 days. Even worse, in our part of the country, it will take 47 days in a cloudy window to recharge. And forget about artificial light - you can't fully recharge the battery because it takes over a year to get a charge that only lasts 8 months.
Read the instruction book before you buy. I'd rather buy a 3 dollar battery every 2-3 years. I sent the watch back and am looking for a battery version.

The watch case and band are beautiful and have a strong and sturdy look. The face is less beautiful and looks a lot better on the picture on Amazon.com. There are too many different fonts used for the text, and too many different colors, the outer ring, the solar area, the inner frame the LCD background, the LCD digits. It just doesn't match. But that is just my taste, other might think different, although it would have been a good thing to show a realistic picture of the watch.
The time sync function only works in certain areas of the world which is logical. However, connecting the auto-sync function to the time zone you are in is not logical. I would have preferred to set the sync function independent of my time zone. Geographic areas or the place were you live are often related with time zone, but not always.
The watch has 4 buttons which have different function in different modes of the watch. Unfortunately the legends next to the buttons are just for one mode, and as it seems, the least used one. The start/stop/lapse and reset buttons are not labeled and it is left to the imagination of the owner which button is for which function. Worse, my previous watch, a Casio Illuminator also hade these 4 buttons, but with different locations in stopwatch mode. VERY inconvenient when you try to record a time event and only discover that you pressed the wrong button again. Setting the alarm is impossible without the user manual in your hand.
Talking about the user manual. Everything is in there, right. But the size of the manual is not bigger than a stamp (about 1 x 1.5" or 25 x 36 mm) and consist of 80 pages in 4 points font size or so. Even if your eyes are good enough to read without a magnifier glass, you hardly can hold the booklet and turn the pages.
Last, the pips at the hour are only audible when you put the watch next to your ear or you are sitting is a totally silent room without airconditioning or computers. Those are not my ears, the old Casio Illuminator was about twice as loud. I fear that the alarm is as loud and therefor useless. I have not been able to try the alarm because without the user manual I can't use it, and I honestly can't find the microscopic sized booklet.
I rate this product with only 3 stars, not because it is a bad watch, but because the use interface is terrible, unusable without a manual and the manual in itself is unusable.

This is a very nice watch, however changing the watch band to fit a smaller wrist is very difficult. The watch is also pretty large compared to other other watches.

This watch is the "ideal" watch for accurate care free time keeping. The automatic time up-date and the solar re-charge of the power is the combination that removes the care from using a time reporting device. The only negative would be for the person who wants an analog look for their watch. The quality and comfort of this model is high and it is easy to read and operate. It is a keeper after you make the selection.
