Solid Basic Bang for the Buck,
Watch arrived quickly and was put to use. I own several G-shock and Ironman watches. This watch has good quality throughout. Probably my favorite part of it is the module which is the same as the G-Shock DW5600 series. In essence that means the watch displays the time in stopwatch and countdown timer mode. That is useful if you want to time something and stay aware of the time of day without having to push buttons to do it. The alarm also can be set to a particular day of the month or week at a specific time in addition to the normal ad hoc alarm functionality you’d expect. G-Shocks have a softer resin protecting the watch that is actually replaceable, but most people just buy new when the resin eventually starts to crumble. This watch has a hard plastic construction that seems like it will hold up well, though is not replaceable.
Now for the rest of you that just buy watches to wear and tell the time. This it does admirably. It’s accurate and reliable. It’s not too thick. Reasonably nice looking for a sporty watch. It doesn’t look like a can of tuna on strap. (Yeah, Seiko folk, I’m talking to you) Can take a pounding or be worn under a dress shirt. Though there are those that think that’s a fashion faux paux to do so. That’s their backward view, not mine. This is a great watch for someone that works outdoors or needs a tough watch for sport or job and is a good watch for someone that wants a quality digital watch in general.
The legacy. The FBI director wears this same model. Search the net and you’ll see. There are also photos of NASA divers wearing it as well. So it’s definitely a watch that makes the grade.
Five stars for ruggedness, reliability, classic functionality and wearability. This is the Rolex Explorer of the digital world.

|Problem free since 1994,
I bought this watch in October 1994 and have worn it daily without problems. The battery was replaced in 2004, the original band was replaced before the battery. I can’t say anything negative about this watch… it’s simple to operate, durable, and performs like it did the day I bought it from Mervyn’s 16 years ago. I highly recommend this watch!

|Basic digital watch functions at a decent price,
I recently retired several old G-Shock watches and needed one for fairly rugged duty. I’m pleased with the readable display, good light, and buttons that are easy to find and press. I was a little disappointed that some of the paint in the “Illuminator” label has already worn off (about a month’s wear), but I have exposed it to rough conditions and this is a minor point. I would readily buy another one as a gift or for myself.
