There are a few reasons I returned this item.

To start with the watch hands and date are almost impossible to see in low light conditions. Even in a well lit, bright room, I had to really look hard to see the hands on the face. The hands blend into the face of the watch making it very difficult to do a quick time check. I have very good vision and had to hold the watch close to my face to read the time. The date window is so small, I'm surprised anyone would be happy with this watch if they use that feature. (just look at the photo) I was really disappointed to see that there was no way to set the watch to show the date and the day simultaneously. Maybe that's trivial but all of my other Casios have shown date, day and time all at once. (I have owned 4)

I also tested the light while standing in a closet. I was very disappointed to see how dim it is. I couldn't see the time hands at all and the date is so tiny, you almost need a magnifying glass to read it. There is no way to see the time of day using the watch light. NONE. Why on earth would you design a watch light that doesn't show the time when it's illuminated? I sure couldn't use the digital feature considering the window and font are so small. I work the night shift and need a watch that really lights up. I need to be able to see day, date and time without using a flashlight for additional light.

In closing I currently have a G-Shock model G-3110-1VCF that has been abused and worked great for years. I have given a very honest review and would not recommend this model or any similar model to anyone. Thank you and I hope this information can be helpful in your decision.

Amazon provided terrible customer service throughout the buy process, the worst I have ever been through.

The watch itself is not bad. My only complaint is that it doesn't show digital date, time, and day of week at the same time. Other G-shocks do show all the info simultaneously. For this one, you have to toggle between the three.

It has the super durablity of a G-shock but looks like a more expensive watch. I just dread daylight savings time when I have to figure out how to change the time, maybe I should just move back to Arizona so I don't have to deal with it.

Nice model, actually this watch can face any situation for his restist shock system, I loved.
