Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Excellent G-shock Watch Comment: I have been a fan of G-Shock watches for many years and own a few - they are almost indestructable, easy to read the time and have good functionalty. However, it is always a pain when the battery goes. If you replace the battery locally the watch is no longer waterproof and if you send it away it takes quite a time to get it back and costs a fortune. I was therefore delighted to discover this solar powered G-Shock watch which not only powers itself from the sun but is also radio controlled which means I always have the correct time to the very second - not just twice a day which is the norm for most of my watches!!! I have had this watch for 6 months now and I am as pleased with it now as I was on the day I purchased it. Customer Rating: Summary: casio wave ceptor/tough solar Comment: When i bought this watch 18 months ago i envisaged it lasting me at least three years, but the strap has rotted away like an old tyre and snapped this month. It has also developed a nasty habit of running out of charge in the day and hibernating until you leave it under a light for a couple of hours, this i can only attribute to working more indoors over the winter months, with the longer days now and being more outside this problem has decreased and i have to say on the whole an excellant idea, just lacking a little in the execution. overal i like that the time is always exact in a tough durable case new strap is going to cost me £12 and i will persevere with the charging issue throughout the summer and see if it decreases.
