The watch looks better in person than it does in the pictures. I recommend going to a brick and mortar store before committing on Amazon. The watch looks much better with an after-market nylon zulu/nato strap. Another version with a steel bracelet is offered, but I've heard that the quality on the bracelet is not great, so I recommend after-market bracelets (watch has standard 22mm lugs). The lume on the hands is very bright, unfortunately, the rest of the lume is a little dim, not sure if that is meant on purpose. Weak lume is a non-issue since the watch has a electric light that adequately illuminates the watch. The digital display can be used for a number of things, not just weekday and calendar day indication. It can also display different time zone times, power meter, stop watch, digital time, digital second indicator... etc. Its really cool to see that the digital time is exactly synchronized with the analog time. THIS IS NOT A DIVE WATCH! As far as a I can tell, the watch is not rated for diving, but it is styled after dive watches so I find that a little misleading. The bezel is unidirectional with 120 clicks. The atomic synchronization doesn't seem to work well here in Miami, reception from FT. Collins is poor to non-existent, but that is not Casio's fault. NIST has plans to build a station that will cover the east coast of the US but plans are not set in stone or near the horizon, so I wouldn't hold my breath. Bought the watch at $120 from Amazon (noticed the price went up :( Initially was told that the watch would ship in 1 month! but the actual ship time was a lot shorter in reality. I agree with another reviewer that the watch was a little confusing to setup initially and that the manual was a little confusing but eventually you will figure it out with a little patience.
Bottomline --- Watch is not perfect, it is not dive rated but is probably well suited for all other water activities. Packs plenty of high-tech features in a classic appearance. If you like the dive watch style but don't want the clunkiness of a dive watch, this is it. Casio reliability and quality is legendary.

I just received this watch form Amazon.com,
When I took it out of the package, Just followed the setup directions
in the owners manual, and it was easy. I found the directions clear and easy to
follow. The watch is large but not too heavy. It is solar powered and uses the
waveceptor technology to keep accurate Time. So far I am very impressed. It was on
Sale at amazon.com for $120.00. great price. Fast delivery, great service Amazon

I just purchased this watch at Sears. This is my first Atomic watch as I wanted a watch that I could travel with and have it take care of keeping accurate time and adjusting to the local time zone. The luminous dial is bright and the night light works very well.
This is not my first Casio so I was surprised to find how poorly the owners manual was written. I had to do trial and error just to figure out how to adjust the watch. Simple things such as setting the main time as well as the 2nd time zone were not clearly described in the owners manual. I found the manual referencing a model of watch different than the one I purchases yet the manual has the correct watch model number on it.
With regards to the quality of the watch I find it to be equivalent to the Citizen EcoDrive watches that I own. If the manual was better I would give the watch 5 stars.
