It's hard to tell from the images on the site just how well finished this watch is. The resin case, the negative (but very clearly readable) display and the general look and feel of the watch are superb, no other manufacturer can make resin cases look and feel this satisfying.The watch is light, so after wearing it for a few minutes, it's easy to forget that it's there.Bluetooth connectivity is solid and dependable, in my case the handset I use isn't listed on the compatibility chart, yet it was still easy to connect, to adjust settings from the Android app and to pair the watch and the 'phone initially. It goes without saying that the watch, by virtue of its Bluetooth and/or atomic clock connectivity, is flawlessly accurate but it also has a unique style that makes the "which watch am I wearing today?" question so difficult. In fact, only a certain premium Swiss mechanical chronometer matches either of my current G-Shocks for comfort and ease of use, and that watch cost 28 times as much! Buy one of these, you won't regret it.

I had the watch for about a week now the solar power not fully charged yet ? When I connect to the APP it shows just over half way but every think works just fine very pleased with it apart from charge

I bought this watch as it reminded me of a similar model that I had back when I was in the Armed Forces, which lasted for many a year and suffered some cruel punishment over the years. Since then I have had a number of good quality watches, however none could match the G shock. I like the look of the watch as it's quite understated, but the blue insert on the face gives it a special look. I have quite a narrow wrist following 6 lots of surgery and normal watch bands tend to slip around and become uncomfortable, however the resin band fitted to this watch keeps it in place and I wear it all day without a problem.
