This review is from: Casio Men's Wave Ceptor Watch FTW100D-7V (Watch)

Ordered the watch through Amazon via Chelsea Watch. Was shipped fast and was exactly as promised. Comes with a bracelet sized for an elephant's trunk so unless you are an elephant, removing links is in your future. Do yourself a favour. Take it to a jeweller as the pins have tiny, tiny retainers which you will lose.

The watch is a little on the light side, guess that's because the case is mostly plastic and the safety clasp is cheap but will last. I love the auto illumination feature which lights up the face when the watch is angled towards you. Gets the atomic time with no problem as long as it is near a window. No complaints, I wear this thing all the time now.

In the future, I will only buy solar watches. This is my second one and the first with the atomic time receiver.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Casio FTW100D-7V, April 12, 2008

This watch is exactly what I was looking for: automatic sync with NIST, selected time zones, a stopwatch, all at an affordable price. It was very easy to set up, too. The tag "atomic" is misleading. NIST time transmitted over WWVB is based on an atomic time standard; however the watch itself is not atomic powered!

3.0 out of 5 stars Could be better, June 29, 2008

Radio controlled calibration calibrates the time nearly every night (some nights it does not get a signal, but the next night always works), so the time is always right. The battery is solar charged (technically, if it was solar POWERED you would not have any power if there was not enough sunlight). It has 4 daily alarms, but only one has a snooze on it. It also has no countdown timer. It will give you sunrise and sunset times every day of the year, once you enter your time zone and latitude and longitude. Entering the time zone requires you to enter the appropriate city from a list, rather than the actual time zone. It will also tell you what direction you are going using the solar azimuth. This only works if you can see the sun. BOO! A digital compass would do this much more effectively.
