Editorial Reviews:

The shock-resistant design of the Casio Men's G-Shock Atomic Tough Solar Watch makes it a one-of-a-kind timepiece. This tough watch is constructed with a durable black resin case, a stationary stainless steel bezel, and a black resin wristband with an adjustable buckle clasp for a personalized fit. A durable mineral window shields the digital-gray dial face, which features the time display, as well as the day, date, and month. The digital-quartz-powered watch includes adjust, mode, split/reset, and start/stop function buttons to fit your activity, as well as subdials that track battery life. It is water resistant to 660 feet and is backed by a one-year limited manufacturer's warranty.

Summary: Pretty good watch, Casio dropping the ball on the straps...
Comment: I actually owned two of these casio atomic watches but they were different models. The first one lasted about 4 years and the band broke while I was playing football and the pin was bent out of shape and I couldn't replace the strap. The second watch I wore for about a year until the little thing that holds the strap with the watch body ripped and I had to stop wearing it and couldn't find another one of those things.

The bottom line is, the watch itself is pretty tough and you could probably run over it with a truck and nothing would happen. BUT, what is the point when the strap breaks so easily? Casio is known for having pretty weak straps if they fixed this the watch would be near perfect.

The only other problem with the watch is that the buttons are a little hard to push sometimes and it's a bit large but some people like that.

Summary: Great watch. but............
Comment: the band fell apart after about 5 years and Casio no longer sells replacement bands.

Replaced it with a #MTG930DA-8V which seems to be the same watch with a metal band.

If the band lasted longer I would've rated it 5 stars.

Summary: Great Watch!
Comment: First off, I agree that this watch can be found in retail stores for about that price or less where you can try it out. Once you own this watch, you can forget about needing to change a dead battery when you least expect it due to the built-in solar panel. Also, this watch can update itself to the atomic time using a signal that is automatically obtained by the watch early in the morning as you sleep. This watch has a tilt sensor that will automatically turn on the indiglo light when you go to look at your watch. I have had this watch for a few years now, and there is not a scratch on it. The band is still in perfect condition as well. This is a watch that you can forget about replacing for many, many years to come.

Summary: cheaper elsewhere for some reason
Comment: Great watch and TONS of functions ... sadly, it is far cheaper at Walmart for $65.00 USD.
