Rating: - About Time!!
I really love this watch, it';s hard to find a great quality watch, that is still stylish, and won't cost you an arm and a leg. Some of the cool features about this watch are: self-setting feature by city (it actually sets the time based on city code!!), black face (stylish and cool!!), analog and digital. I just love my watch and am actually considering buying another!!

I bought this watch and I like it alot. I have 2 different time zones set on this watch and works great and easy to set up.
Rating: - Great utilitarian watch
I have the metallic version of this watch, and it's been absolutely great for me. It's very utilitarian and has many features; asides from the analog + digital, I like the fact that it has multiple alarms, time zones, stop watch, timer, 'automatic' light mode (just twist your wrist and the light turns on), and many other features. Though the things I don't like about the watch is the plastic cover (as opposed to glass), which over the years I've scratched up pretty good. Also the metal on the front of the watch is just painted onto plastic, and the wrist band is aluminum instead of steel (lighter but less sturdy). But for the price, I would buy it again if mine broke.

I have ordered from Amazon 3 times prior and always received prompt delivery until this item. Took 4 days for Amazon to ship and 4 more days later, "where's the watch?" Slooow delivery!
Rating: - Quite a loud bang for the buck
I own several watches that cover a wide range and each has a designated occasion/role. I needed a watch for the gym/travel/hiking... you get the point: essentially something that I wouldn't feel bad about accidentally destroying. At ~$26 w/free shipping, this Casio was a no brainer.
I travel to at least a couple of countries every year, and the dual time feature works great. The airport/region codes cover almost every time zone in the World. Although I do have a high end watch that does the same, this works great through the actual journey without the worry of damaging or losing it. The buttons are comfortable and do not get needlessly pushed with daily activities.
The face has a very unique and useful seconds counter that helps me visually keep workout reps paced accurately. The strap is long enough for me, but I can't go any smaller. I have a mid-sized wrist and I can see larger wrists having a problem. The watch is very light, making it easy when on the treadmill. In all light intensities, I did not have a problem viewing the digital display. The "Illuminator" backlight is short, but does the job.
Overall, a solid watch that you don't have to think twice about. Buy it, use it, trash it, get another. If you don't want to get another, get the G-Shock version of the same watch which costs appx twice as much.
