CASIO wave ceptor WVA-M650-1AJF Men's Japan import

Hated the fact the directions were in Japanese. My first Casio lasted 10 years of perfect time. When band broke I ordered a new one. Looks great for an inexpensive watch.

Wanted a Wave-ceptor with hands. This does it.

left out side at night twice and did not sync. G-Shock synced when left in back yead at night in same place first time.

This is, by far, the best watch I have ever purchased. The day I received it I went to Casio.com to find the users' guide. There is a 4 digit number on the case of the watch that will be used to locate the correct users' guide. I found the city code for my time zone and the steps for getting to the correct city code. When I activated the city code, the watch moved minute & hour hand to the time that was 1 hour behind the correct time. During the night the watch received the signal from Fort Collins & corrected to DST. I don’t have to concern myself with the battery (It's charged by light.) or time accuracy. I love this watch.

Good overall.My opinion is that it is an almost entirely digital watch. The analog part is only for the hands that show the time in analog form. Seconds, date, world time, stopwatch, timer etc... are displayed in digital form. LCD screens are small and sometimes difficult to read. Perfect for people who travel or do not worry about correcting the watch from time to time (as long as they follow the instructions for synchronization with the radio signal) and also total autonomy in relation to their movement because the sun is in charge of providing the energy. . It may be suitable for those people who are extremely precise with meetings. Difficult to program for the first time and confusing when trying to use the other attributes such as the stopwatch or seeing the time in another part of the world, but eventually and little by little you will get there. Download the manual in English at the Casio download center because the paper that comes inside the box is in Japanese. The strap is the least recommended; It is rigid and a little uncomfortable.

I brought this watch after lusting for it for over 6 months while trying in vain to get my former Casio wavecepter watch refund to come through. The refund never came and I succumbed to this attractive watch. I couldn’t be happier- it’s solar, holds charge well and syncs time inside my apartment that is built like a faraday’s cage. It has also survived a mango exfoliation process from my 8 month old baby and use as a flashlight from my 2.5 year old. I give it a solid 5 stars.

It's really nice to have the exact time with you all of the time. This watch has all sorts of neat features. Many of which I'll seldom use if ever. It's still good to know they're there if I do find myself in a situation where I do need them. I'm very happy with this watch. Casio seems to have a great deal of intuition when it comes to the making of really good watches, among other things as well.

I bought this watch to replace a Casio watch I have had for at least 10 years. My old watch started to loss time and the buttons that you use for reset the hands have stopped working. I trust this watch will serve me for another 10 years. The watch came from a vendor in Japan and I was pleased that I received the watch in just 7 days.
