When I checked around online for the best price of this exact watch, Amazon was selling for like $30 cheaper. It's a perfect watch, especially if you're a P.E. teacher.
BE CAREFUL WITH CASIO (2008-10-09)
I have had a Casio watch for about a year and now the watchband needs replaced. I was informed by Walmart that they cannot replace a Casio watchband. I called Casio and they told me that as far as they know NO CASIO WATCHBAND CAN BE REPLACED BY A NORMAL WATCHBAND! I had to order a watchband from Casio and they had to know which model it was before I ordered it. Total price: $12.00 shipping, handling and sales tax included. I then asked the representative if instructions would be included because it was a different type of setup instead of pins. HE SAID THAT THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO RECOMMEND TAKING THE BAND TO A JEWELER TO HAVE IT PUT ON!! PLEASE BEWARE OF THIS AS BANDS DO NOT LAST FOREVER!!
Mystery indicator? (2008-09-30)
There are three circular indicators on the face of this watch. I'm puzzled by the one on the left. It's not mentioned anywhere in the manual. Does anyone know what its function is?
Update: As suggested by two commenters, this mystery indicator *does* do something -- every 5 minutes it shows another bar. My follow-up question, then, has to be "WHY???" What use is this feature? The little bars inside the mystery circle are tiny and very difficult to see. So why take up space on the watch face for that? Seems like a poor use of space. I'd much rather have no third circle, in return for slightly larger time digits as are on some other G-Shock models.

Wonderful tough, manly watch. Great for Guys in the Military like myself. It has a large look to it (big/wide face) however is very light. Automatic light system is good to go, however doesn't help when adjusting the watch in the dark. Has four alarms, stopwatch however no timer. However worth it.
Terrific (2008-08-27)
Casio is top notch. The auto set and the solar battery make it worth the purchase alone. Only drawback is the small size of the characters on the face but at least its all there. Terrific watch.
