Rating :  - I'm really happy with this watch!
I really like this watch. I've had two of them in the past 12 or so years (I beat the first one up something fierce).
Before I bought another one of this model, I tried one of Casio's battery powered models but the thing picked up 15-20 seconds every month. It was ridiculous, I though there was something wrong with the watch but, lo and behold, this variance was noted in its manual. If I'd known that, I never would've bought the thing.
Feel free to make fun of me for being meticulous about certain things but I much prefer a watch to be dead on if at all possible. This watch syncs every night with an atomic clock (I believe it's Ft. Collins, CO, USA) and it's very easy to check the date/time of the last synchronization. Also, it's very easy to read the time of day, the day of the week, or the date in almost any light.
The only con has nothing to do with the watch itself but rather the manual. The print is very small and because it's packaged with the watch, it takes a while to get it flattened out. Other than that, I'd definitely recommend this watch to anyone.
