 "LOVE it! Practical + cute." 2010-02-12
By Isabel (New York)
I love the style of this watch. Really cute and a little retro. And it fits me perfectly... not too big and bulky but not so small that you can't use the buttons (if you have big fingers you might want to look for a different watch, or prepare to use your fingernails to hit the keys). My only complaint is that the watch doesn't display the date--instead it displays the day of the week which is not at all helpful (I know what day of the week it is!) Other than that its great! And very reasonably priced for such a sweet watch.

 "Looking good, for 1 month." 2010-02-10

Nice looking watch, but the battery is dead after one month. I suspect the guts, battery and all, are from the much older black Casio calculator watches.

 "Cool if you are a kid or just into the retro look" 2009-09-14
By J-Reezy (Bay Area)
There is not a whole lot that can be said about this watch. The quality isn't necessarily high. It feel rather flimsy and probably not extremely durable. I have not tried the more expensive calculator watches so I can't compare the quality.Based on the picture, I thought it had a glossier finish but it is more of a matte finish. The lack of a backlight can be annoying but isn't something I really needed.



In the end, if you want a calculator watch for fun but not necessarily form & function -- this is a great price and has a neat look.

I got this watch for my 9-year old and she loves it. When I told her they make watches with calculators on them she got so excited so I got her one as a gift. She uses the stop watch a lot when she has to time her piano lesson or reading time. It looks as good or better than the picture. I would have given it five stars except it has no light.

The Master of G series began with Casio's Frogman model which was introduced in 1993, however at this stage the watch was not called a Frogman, and the Master series had not yet been designated. The watch itself was a heavy divers model that featured a unique asymmetrical design of thick rubber shielding around a self-contained module, with titanium screw-back case - an unusually high-cost design. A thick double-tang resin strap and multitude of digital features including dive timing completed a competent diver's watch. The Frogman proved to be very popular, and this is presumably one of the key reasons why at some point between then and 1995 Casio decided to produce more high-end premium models, and with them limited edition colour variants that, due to their scarcity, have in some cases become very valuable indeed.

It seems that the last of the "first wave" of Masters watches ceased production around 2000, but there are signs Casio is keen to keep the range alive, not just with limited edition releases but with re-designs of some of the old Masters, such as the new Mudman models released in 2006.

By Hidesertbiker (Jefferson, GA United States)
Wow, I am really loving this watch. This is my first G-shock and I'm really glad I made the purchase. I was a little worried about the blue color initially, but it's not a really bright blue. The LCD is SUPER easy to read, it has a turquoise hue to it making it very bright. Even in low light it is easy to see the time without using the illumination. Very comfortable and light for it's size. The buttons are a bit hard to push, but this is a mud-resistant watch, so what do you expect? It's better than being able to push them accidentally. Really happy with it.

 "Love my Casio" 2009-11-18
By Carlos Vargas (Atlanta, GA USA)
Bought this watch about a month ago and haven't taken it off for nothing, except showering and sleeping. Only bad thing is that it doesn't have a light. But hey, who needs to know the time in a pitch black (dark) room anyway..? Oh and the alarm isn't very loud, plus it doesn't have snooze or repeat or any fancy options, so if you need the alarm, get an alarm clock. And now I'm the calculator for friends.. hehe.. how much tip should I leave? How much tax will I have to pay? What's the exchange rate? What is 25 + 60 + 32 + 12 + 7%.. divided by 3..? I got it! The watch looks incredible, fits perfectly and everyone loves it, makes me feel like a hot geek.. sweet!! If you don't have a Casio calculator watch yet then just stop reading and get this one or the one with the light if you feel like you really need it -- in the end the light is not essential. Hope Casio never stops making this one. I've been a fan of this model since it came out in the 80's.

I have owned one of these watches for at least ten years. Before I started using a cell phone and programing phone numbers into it, this kind of watch was my phone book. I now use this watch to remember all my pin numbers and pass words. The only problem I have with this watch is not actually with the functioning of the watch, it is with the cheapness of the bands and the ears that the pins hook into. The only reason I need to replace my six year old watch was the holes the the pins insert into wore out after replacing the band for the fourth time.

 "Still hasn't been improved upon" 2010-02-05
By Michael Glenister (Canada)
I've been using this model since it first appeared, and have owned at least 5 of them. Calculator watches are no longer as common or popular as they once were, and for those that like gadgets, this one had almost everything - in particular a memory and schedule databank that stored 150 entries. They came out with several models with these features, including a silver one that looked like metal, but was in fact plastic, but this model was the most functional and durable. Unfortunately the watch will outlive the watchband, and it is now very difficult to find a replacement (I bought 2 off Ebay the last time mine broke, so that I still have a spare). Casio watches are generally disposable and after you go through 2 or 3 watchbands, one or more buttons will start to fail - particularly after a battery change (2 year life - and many jewellers won't touch Casio, but its easy to do yourself and a lot cheaper), and you'll have to hunt for another one.



Casio kept adding features to their calculator watches when they first came out. However they never seemed to successfully add to this model. It's attempted replacement, with a touch screen and memory for emails, no longer had the very useful schedule function/alarm (just a couple of different alarms with no record of their significance), and once the touch screen started malfunctioning (which isn't long) the watch was useless. Linked to an atomic clock and a universal remote were the only other variations, but again they added those features while removing useful ones that this model had.



I'd love to see Casio add a universal remote to the features of this watch. However until then, I will continue to buy this model as long as it is available. It may need replacing every 5 years or so, but I've yet to find another watch as useful. Incidentally stick to the Telememo 150, instead of the Telememo 30, the extra memory is more than worth the extra money.

Buy Low Price From Here Now

Tough and rugged enough for any workout regimen or outdoors training, this solar-powered Casio G-Shock digital men's watch (model G7301B-3V) is also a great choice for boating enthusiasts. It includes built-in timer for yacht races, which features 1-second measurements, a 60-minute countdown range, and a count up after countdown function. It's solar-powered--charging in either sunlight or indoor light--so you'll never have to deal with changing the battery. Light enters the watch through the sapphire crystal and dial, and hits a solar cell beneath the dial. Current is created and stored in the battery. And it's water resistant to 200 meters (660 feet), which will protect the watch from splashes of sea spray and is suitable for recreational scuba diving.

It also offers a 1/100-second stopwatch with a 100-minute measuring capacity and elapsed time, split time, and 1st/2nd place time modes. Timekeeping features include four independent daily alarms (with one snooze alarm), an optional hourly time signal, year/month/date/day display (with an autocalendar to the year 2039), and a battery power indicator. Other features include a black resin watch case (with gray top ring) and strap, scratch-resistant mineral crystal, and AfterGlow LED electro-luminescent backlight.

 "The Perfect Combination" 2010-01-31
By Pine Breeze (Washington, USA)
For me, this G-Shock has the perfect combination of functions, toughness, and looks.



With the accuracy of quartz watches today, I felt no burning desire to have the atomic time setting feature--so why pay for it?!



This watch has a great countdown timer with a variety of functions including auto-repeat, warning signals for example.



It allows 5 alarms--one that has snooze. Love this feature, although it's not loud enough to wake up to.



It's a big watch, but still fits my small wrist. The whole design looks nice with a subdued brushed dark steel mixed with black plastic design.



The position of the light button is ideal because you can't accidentally set it off by bumping the watch.



The watch also has dual time that is easy to set and reset with one button press. Nice if you travel much.



The little digital dials at the top show battery strength (nice!), alarm functions and time (5 sec?) intervals look OK, but are really hard to read for the alarm and I have good eyes.



The band is flexible, very rugged and comfortable enough to wear to bed if desired.



Overall, I think this is an excellent watch and value. It's perfect for my needs, but taste plays big role when choosing a watch!

 "Has served me well" 2009-09-18
By W. S. Kennell
I have had this watch for 2 years now in the tropics, wearing it almost constantly, and have been really pleased. I'm always a bit skeptical about solar power gimmicks, but the watch actually lost power when worn under long sleeves (yes, we have cold weather in the tropics sometimes) and then recharged quickly when I left it in the sun!

My only complaint is that the alarm is very quiet, not good for a heavy sleeper like me, but I just use something else for an alarm. I will say that this watch keeps the best time of any watch I've ever owned, gaining maybe 3 seconds over a 2-3 month period. I like the price that has come down considerably from when I bought it. My coworker in Brazil needs a watch and I think this is the one I'm getting for him.

 "Good value in a solar watch with yacht racing timer" 2008-11-16
By Power Surfer, NJ (NJ, USA)
Bought this for my son, for two features: solar power and yacht racing timer. Casio watches offer a good value, and each model offers a slightly different combination of features aimed at specific uses. The controls are intuitive for such a full-featured watch.



It was purchased when previous Casio Pathfinder waterproofing failed after an $[...] battery replacement by Casio, but it was beyond Casio warranty, so replacement with this watch was cheaper than repair of the old Pathfinder. Hopefully this watch will last longer, since it is solar powered and should not have to be serviced for a long time. My family is "hard on watches". We have owned several Casio watches and they perform well, and are as durable as any other watches in their price range.

I think this watch is a great value when considering all the features it provides.

 "Great Watch" 2009-11-30
By C. Eroglu (East TN, US)
I did a lot of research before buying this watch. At first I was interested in 1300 and 1500 series, but after trying them on at a local store, I reilized that they were a little too big and they wouldnt be very practical for everyday use. Then I came across with this model, it basically has every feautre that 1300 series offer except the compass sensor. I really should say before puchasing this watch I was kind of dissapointed that it didnt have compass sensor, but now I dont even care at all. Because it really is a useless function if you think about it, unless you need the compass to navigate. I tried to hike few times since I got the watch and I just used the altimeter function once or twice. The altimeter function works fine but it needs to be calibrated right before a hike. Same for the temperature and barometer, they need to be calibrated for better accuracy.



This watch is a very light and slick. It takes attention and it fits on my wrist very well. No matter what you wear this watch stands out and looks good.



I should say the best feature for me is the Atomic time keeping function. It is very acurate, it matches the exact seconds with atomic clock all the time. You dont have to do anything to calibrate the watch. When the daylight saving time start this watch would set itself to right time for you.



Like the other reviewer sad, the titanium band is not very durable against the minor scratches. It is really hard to keep in the original polish. That is my only complaint, except that the watch does everything that is it listed on its description. It is almost half the price of 1300 series and it just lacks on compass feature. Thanks to amazon I paid only $115. Great product!

 "Very Happy with this watch" 2009-10-26
By B. C. M. Wagner (Sierra Nevada, CA)
I bought this because it's smaller than some of the monster models. And it is big, but not so big ad the other ones. I can button my sleeve ocer it, at least!



And I like the solar power--I'd heard a lot about battery use for these kinds of watches, so I wanted to make sure that wasn't an issue. The solar power function workswell, and I haven't hasd any problems with keeping the watch charged--at least in sunny CA.



And if you understand that the altimeter works off the barometer function, you should be really happy. Yes, you should reset it when you get a chance...mine often changes 100 feet or more overnight. But that's what barometer does. And if I update regularly, this watch does a great job of telling you where and how high you are!

 "Titanium PAW500T Casio watch" 2009-10-09
By 12review (USA)
Casio Pathfinder Solar Atomic Watch #PAW500T-7V



Casio Pathfinder Solar Atomic Watch #PAW500T-7V



I bought this watch after about 1 month of internet research.

The watch I wanted had to be not bulky, with a metal band (All my plastic bands

broke within 3 years and leather bands damaged within 2, so the band had to be metal),

with real mineral glass, water-proof etc etc. For a while MOMENTUM SLK

appealed to me until I've read the glass on them can break too easily due to

it not being recessed and protected enough.

In the end I had only one model to chose from, Casio PAW500T-7V.







PROS



-Balanced looking.



-Titanium watch and band. I would rate this watch as "ultra light for the size".

If you are thinking between this and the plastic version, no need to think very long.

Even the demanding owners who hate bulky watches would likely be happy after

buying the titanium version.



[small comment: the band looks solid titanium, but it is pressed sheet titanium, folded

to look solid. For me it's not a problem.]



-It is not a small watch. On the overall watch market, its place is among medium-sized and large (!)

men watches. Casio markets it as female not because PAW500T is small, but because it is

much smaller than the grossly oversized other pathfinders.



-Internal precision of mine is outstanding. The watch came to me being 7 secondes ahead of time, with last atomic

calibration date 5 month back. About a second error per month running without atomic calibration.

Even my upper-end Oceanus watch has 10 sec/month internal error.



-Barometer, altimeter and thermometer work great after calibration.

Barometer is completely in agreement with published pressures. Correctly predicted

a hurricane two days in advance (large pressure drop). Correctly predicted clear sky for a week

(large pressure increase). The watch was correct. The [...] was not -

it said "80% chance of rain", "rain", "cloudy" and there was sun.



Some people mentioned that altimeter is too variable and insensitive.

I think this altimeter is fine. Like all altimeters, it needs to be calibrated

to current pressure. If one does not calibrate, no wonder he reads +/- 300-feet day-to-day

difference for the same location. That's how all altimeters work.



-Easy to size bracelet. No special tools needed, only a needle or a small

knife. The links are held by spring-supported retractable tiny rods. The band has arrows which point

where knife tip fits to move the rods. For me it was very easy and I am amused that

somebody wrote he had problems. Needed skill level: 1 out of 5.



CONS

Alarm sound is too soft and short. A plus is that there are 5 alarms, so one could

program them in succession.



Backlight duration is 0.5 second. Would be better if there was a user setting to adjust

backlight duration.





VERDICT

This watch is one of a kind, and if lost or stolen, will be replaced with the same.



The checklist:

Digital watch

Solar battery

Atomic time keeping

Very nicely outlined display with "time+month+year+date" or "time+day_of_week+date" options

Big digits that do stand out

Small size (H=35mm x W=38mm size by my ruler, don't know how Casio measured 41mM...)

Light weight titanium case

Titanium case and band

Mineral glass

Dual time (must have for me)

World time

Electroluminescent backlight

100m water submersible

Thermometer

Barometer

Altimeter

 "This is a great, reliable watch" 2010-05-08
By Tracey Martin (Los Angeles, CA)
I've been wearing these watches for about 15-20 years; the watch itself seems to last forever, but eventually it's the band that finally ends up breaking after 2-3 years. My boyfriend turned me on to this watch originally; he wore one and told me that, if I ever tried one out, I'd never want to go back to an expensive/fancy watch again. I was skeptical, but he was right! I've been wearing this brand/model ever since and am thrilled that I can still find it on Amazon (Target seems to have stopped carrying them.) I think this particular Casio is better described as a "unisex" rather than strictly a "man's" watch; it has a slim, unbulky construction, classic design/styling, & an adjustable wristband to fit any normal-sized man or woman. It's well-made, sturdy, keeps accurate time, truly water-resistant, has a built-in alarm/stopwatch, and lights up at the touch of a button to allow you to check the time in the dark -- all for a price that can't be beat. I rate this product 5 stars for quality, reliability and design. Thank you Casio & Amazon...please keep making/carrying this watch!

By RubberShoez (Bedford, TX USA)
You can't get a better watch for less than $15 dollars. Its small, slim and with 12 eyelets can fit any small to medium size wrist. It's a very simple, easy to use watch and the illumination function works excellent, although it doesn't "light up a room" like some reviewers claim. The watch is water resistant so it can take splashes without a problem. I shower with mine everyday and won't worry about wearing it in the pool this summer. The only improvement I could ask for is a louder alarm. I know it's not designed to wake a person up, but I still wish it could. Design-wise, well, it's nothing great. I like it, but I like nerdy things.

 "GREAT WATCH ------- LOUSY BAND" 2010-04-15
By John Hanebury (Antioch, CA, USA)
I used to buy the casio F-28W, remove the band, and use it as a pocket watch to protect it from the abuse it would receive on my wrist at the construction site. When I accidentally ran it through a complete wash cycle, I could not believe it was still running perfectly. Since retiring, I now use the F-105 due to it's many features ---- most notably the illuminator. No, the watch is not water resistant to 300 meters and would probably not hold up to actually diving but it is water resistant enough so that I never have to take it off ---- not when showering, bathing or even swimming. I purchased my second F-105 2-3 years ago and, just as with the first one, the band broke. Casio makes a fine watch for a remarkably cheap price but they definitely need to learn how to make a watch band -----and yes a replacement band costs nearly as much as a new watch. Since I am sure Casio knows about this problem I am disappointed that they have not addressed it. At least they should have the integrity to include some extra bands or supply them at a reasonable price ---- which certainly would not be 70% of the cost of the entire watch!

Wonderful inexpensive watch.

Battery always outlasts the band and the band is good for 3 to 5 years.

 "Fantastic Device" 2010-03-11
By Zangwell (Lake Forest, IL United States)
I've been using the Illuminator for at least 20 years. It's light on the wrist, tells accurate time, has a stop watch and an alarm AND as an extra benefit can be illuminated for late-night time telling in the dark. The watch's "illuminator" is so strong it casts enough light in a dark room, tent or outdoors to see your way or to identify objects. It's cheap which means no tears shed when the battery wears out after a year or so or if it's lost (as has happened from time to time). I've been buying these for friends who, like me, view a watch as a tool rather than a piece of jewelry. My only caution is if you have a really large wrist, it may not fit. But, for $13 or $14 you can always give it to your kid. Great for guys who spend a lot of time outdoors for recreation or work. Durable and can take occasional immersions in water.

Well, it ran well for the first year. Then the display started fading when you press any of the buttons.

Changed batteries twice. No use. Dont waste your money.

 "My first casio G-Shock. I love it." 2009-08-14
By Kp
This is great product. G-2900 is my first G-shock watch, so really can not compare with other G-shocks. Well, first of all I have purchased G 9000 1V from Macys, and then returned it. G 9000 is also great watch, i have returned it for only one reason and it has more sporty / outgoing look, I love that look thats why I purchased it and then suddenly realize that it wont go to much of my office-ware.



Now again back to G-2900.



Likes:

1) It has 10 yr battery life. some review says after replacing battery (opening watch) sometime it loosed its water resistance. so I thought of purchasing longer battery life.

I am using it from last 3 months ;). Lets hope battery runs atlest 6-8 yrs.

2) I can store important numbers in internal memory. I ofter forget my cell phone at home / car /gym and not good to remember phone numbers. So internal memory helps me.



3) It has 4 regular alarms, 1 SNZ (snooze) alarm & 1 SIG (my fav) alarm. good part of 4 regular alarm is it can show 3 letter description on screen. so I put sometime "gym" 7:00 pm. when alarm turn on at 7:00pm it show 3 letter only "gym" on screen.

SIG is my favorite. When it turns on it beeps twice every hour. Sometime in office you don't see time regularly. but SIG remind every hour and I can get back to my work.



4) While driving a car in night, "Auto EL Backlight with Afterglow" feature is very handy. You just need to move your hand 30-40 degree up and BackLight glows automatically.



DisLikes:

1) Backlight only turn on for 1-2 seconds, which some time annoy me. Many times in night I forget to set up alarm. And then there is no feature (or I dont know how to turn on yet) that turn on back light for longer time so I can set up alarm. Same thing happen while driving a car in night if I want to setup timer or see world time back light only glows for 1-2 second when I move my hand upwards but can not see much in that duration.





All over its great watch. I love it. I fully recommend it to buy. I bought it from kohls. So no comments on how amazon handle shipping / returning / warranty and all.

By Scott Lambourne (USA)
This is my second casio g-shock watch. My last one lasted for about 8 years and the battery died. The only reason I decided to buy a new one was because the old one was showing it's age. I expect this one to last just as long or longer.

 "Great Watch" 2010-04-16
By Aram Khachaturyan (San Diego, CA USA)
This are very great watch. Very accurate, display very friendly and time and date very easy to read. Also the cool thing about this watch that you dont need to replace battery. Put them on the sunlight for ten minutes and they are ready to go ))) they even charge as you walk as long as any sunlight hits the screen. In general if you are hardcore mountain climber or anything like that i would reccomend more advance series Pathfinders, other than that if you looking for cheap , reliable , good looking watch this is your choice. In the future I will buy another G . Very satisfied with purchase.

 "G-Shock Tough!" 2009-11-24
By Kristopher Contreras (Florida)
This can quite possibly be the best G-Shock for it's dollar worth. We are talking about a Solar-Powered model, 200 meters worth of water resistance; 30 page data-bank (Good for keeping track of those pesky phone numbers that always get lost); Your standard 24 hr countdown timer, and 24 hour stopwatch, and not to mention a world time feature. I have had experience with G-shock's in the past and the outcome of each watch purchased was always a pleasure. The one thing I like a lot about this model is that: Yes! the countdown timer can be adjustable even down to the seconds unlike most newer model G's. Also, there is an A.M. and P.M. indicator as shown by either an A or a P depending what time of day it is. If your looking for a G-Shock this is your best bet for a classic looking non-atomic, solar powered model.

 "one tough watch" 2009-11-24
By joseph rasmussen
I got this watch a few years ago while I was in the Marine Corps. At the time I was going through a couple watches a year. I now throw it in a box for the winter and take it out in the spring...still charged. In the summer I lead camping trips and the watch never leaves my wrist. When this thing breaks I am surely going to get another, although I'm sure I'll probably loose it way before it does break.

Do not buy it! Casio has very poor customer service history! This watch rarely shows the right date and if you wanted to send it back to Casio for repair you have to pay to mail it to them, even when it's new. Look at complaints about Casio on the web. Go for Atomic if you really want a Casio...

All is good w/ this watch, especially the multi-alarms on it. HOWEVER, if you dont expose this watch to sun light the BATTERY dies out until you give it sun. Actually it still works, but you have to hit a button to bring up the screen. So that got annoying and i've switched to another watch
