Casio Women's Baby G Shock Resistant Grey Sports Watch #BG169-8V

This is the best watch I've ever had. It's comfortable and light-weight, it's cute, goes with everything, and is wonderful for travelers. Taking a trip across seas, or even across the U.S.? No problem. Just use the world time feature, and you can find the time in 40 different places, covering all the time zones. You don't have to reset your watch at every stop, just hit a button instead. You can also store phone numbers and count down to important dates.

It's the most functional, attractive watch I've ever had. I absolutely love it!

This Baby G was a Christmas present for my girlfriend. The watch is awesome and the smoked jelly case/band is very stylish. Previously I have purchased another with a clear case/band and this one is even nicer looking in person.

The watch itself has all the great functions that G's offer (stopwatch, alarms, multiple time zones, etc.) in a very sporty package that is great for casual and athletic wear. One neat little aspect of this model is whenever you push the "light" button to illuminate the watch face (and when the second counter hits 30 seconds) a little dolphin appears in the upper window and "swims" -- my girlfriend thinks this is very cute and it adds to the appeal of the concept of a fun Baby G.

My only nit pick is that the buckle is plastic and not stainless steel like all the other G-shocks/Baby Gs I have purchased in the past -- but this is minor (and the reason I gave it a 4 star rating instead of a 5 star rating).

The price and service from Amazon and the supplier were excellent! I literally received the package 3 days after I ordered it (during Christmas time).

My girlfriend and I are very happy with the product and service.

I have worn Timex Ironmans for about as long as I can remember. I wanted a change, my huband has always touted a giant G-shock for as long as I can remember, so I stepped off the ledge.
What a waste of time money and energy!
1) This watch is not intuitive; you can't simply zap through it and figure it out-- thou shalt break out manual or you will NEVER be able to even set it.
2) Strap & watch body-- It'd been more comfortable if I had built the thing out of an old frozen orange juice can
3) Mobil icons; spinning globe and flickering whale make me want to sink this thing to the bottom of the ocean! When the minute changes the digital numbers do this rapid change over thing-- ANNOYING TO NO END!
4)Horrible to do any recalls/ laps etc; getting to the splits etc is like talking to the IRS.

On the plus and the only reason it gets a star-- the built in face guards are great especially if you are really active and prone knocking your watch on things like a door frame as you turn a corner-- oh, and you can set so you know how many days you've owned it.
Yuck... what a disappointment.

Love Baby G's. As a nurse and mother they really stand up to hand washing and bumps. It is attractive (for a plastic watch) and love the light on it.... great for checking time at night for those of us that are too blind without our glasses to read the night stand clock.

My husband purchased this watch for me as a gift, and I couldn't have been happier. It was the style I had been looking for in stores, but could never find. It was scheduled to arrive in 5-7 days, but we were pleasantly surprised when it arrived only three days later. I would encourage all to visit amazon.com. The prices, styles and brands are bar-none.

Recently purchased this for my girlfriend for Christmas. I own other G-Shock watches and could not be happier with mine, but this one let me down a little. I'm sure the watch is of G-shock quality and would last forever but there are several little annoyances with this one. As another user said the dolphin icon is odd and may take some time to get used to. Also when the minuets change there is some strange flipping in the numbers before the new minute pops up, that was very annoying. I also did not like that it did not show the Day on the screen, and it seems like it would take forever to enter anything into the data bank, doing one letter/number at a time, scrolling through the alphabet each time. Granted I did not read the instructions and you may be able to adjust some things but I am used to other G-shock watches, that don't have these "features". Overall the size, shape and appearance were Great and what I expected. I opted to return this one and go with the BG3000-8, which has a pink bezel, I think she will like that one more.

This watch is great, Just as described and have had no issues with it. I dont want to take it off. It is so awesome! Will buy again, seller was super fast with the shipping and great communication!

This watch is a great watch, I have only had it for a few days but it also is on military time. so you can set it on military time or regular time it is also great that it is waterproof. I am a diver and I am defiantly going to take it on all of my dives!

This watch combine two aspects for a good sport watch: robustness and beauty. It's not so big like i thought , the light is good and is feminine. It has a dolphin and a whale and is 200 meter water resistant. I had Nike, Timex and polar and they are not comparable with this. In fact I had 3 nikes and had problems with the band and scratches on the glass. I hardly recomend this watch and this brand casio.

I just wanted a watch that was waterproof & had a stop watch. I couldn't believe all the different options this watch has. What a great deal & a great watch.
