This review is from: Casio Men's WVA320J-1E Atomic Tough Solar Waveceptor Sports Watch (Watch) The watch looks better in person than it does in the pictures. I recommend going to a brick and mortar store before committing on Amazon. The watch looks much better with an after-market nylon zulu/nato strap. Another version with a steel bracelet is offered, but I've heard that the quality on the bracelet is not great, so I recommend after-market bracelets (watch has standard 22mm lugs). The lume on the hands is very bright, unfortunately, the rest of the lume is a little dim, not sure if that is meant on purpose. Weak lume is a non-issue since the watch has a electric light that adequately illuminates the watch. The digital display can be used for a number of things, not just weekday and calendar day indication. It can also display different time zone times, power meter, stop watch, digital time, digital second indicator... etc. Its really cool to see that the digital time is exactly synchronized with the analog time. THIS IS NOT A DIVE WATCH! As far as a I can tell, the watch is...Read more 19 of 20 people found the following review helpful: A Kid's Review This review is from: Casio Men's WVA320J-1E Atomic Tough Solar Waveceptor Sports Watch (Watch) I just purchased this watch at Sears. This is my first Atomic watch as I wanted a watch that I could travel with and have it take care of keeping accurate time and adjusting to the local time zone. The luminous dial is bright and the night light works very well.
This is not my first Casio so I was surprised to find how poorly the owners manual was written. I had to do trial and error just to figure out how to adjust the watch. Simple things such as setting the main time as well as the 2nd time zone were not clearly described in the owners manual. I found the manual referencing a model of watch different than the one I purchases yet the manual has the correct watch model number on it. With regards to the quality of the watch I find it to be equivalent to the Citizen EcoDrive watches that I own. If the manual was better I would give the watch 5 stars. 22 of 24 people found the following review helpful: By Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Casio Men's WVA320J-1E Atomic Tough Solar Waveceptor Sports Watch (Watch) INTRODUCTION As revealed by the title for this review, I am a big fan of Casio watches. Always have been, given their looks, utility, quality, and price. While there are the "lower-end" lines of Casio watches (read, cheap), this is certainly not one of them. In fact, in my opinion, this is overall the best Casio watch I have ever owned or seen. OBVIOUS ADVANTAGES (1) Low Maintenance: With Tough Solar and Waveceptor technologies combined, this is the most low maintenance watch you can own. Once you set it up, you're pretty much done for the life of the watch. Imagine never having to change a battery or correct the time of your watch again. Now repeat. What a great feeling. (2) Tough Solar: A bit repetitive of my first point, but the prospect of never having to change a battery makes this watch - and other Casio Tough Solar watches - tough to beat. This is my third Tough Solar watch. My other two have never had battery issues, and I...Read more |
