Review on Casio GW-M5610-1BJF G-Shock Solar Digital Multi Band 6 Men's Watch in Black by Alan Singh

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Not worth the nostalgia

I bought this watch out of nostalgia for the classic look but after half an morning of use I was extremely disappointed. Here are some actual downsides: - The display is very small and difficult to read in normal daylight. Especially while driving or in situations that require a quick look. Also, most of the frame around the display is just plastic. The product looks very crisp in promotional images but is very non-functional in terms of legibility, size or contrast. The user does not need to press the Light Up button just to read the time. There is no confirmation or certainty that the watch actually detected the WT signal. Also in WT mode, if you press the "Set" button, it will switch to another time mode. So you just don't know what time it is, especially when traveling internationally. - Alarm clock only plays for 10 seconds. everything is comfortable by modern standards. - I have no idea what the online reviewers were looking at when giving this product a good rating.

Pros
  • Impressive
