Not a G-Shock but still quite robust and solar powered at this price point. I have the green version and it looks nice.
CamelCamelCamel.
It has 5 chances.
Buckley's, zilch, nada, nil and none?
Woosh
I've got this watch and use it as my daily.
It's solid, bezel protects it from being scratched nothing has broken on it, it's water tight and Time/date/calendar work as advertised. In short it's a casio.
I'm an engineer and this watch to complicated to setup. I work FIFO in a different timezone, it took 3 lots of googling it before I memorised how to change the time zones.
The lumination is terrible.
The back light only lights up the digital display which is tiny.
There is no second hand so you need to use digital for seconds.
Ive been unable to figure out how to swap the date to day/month instead of month/day.
The seconds are on the same display as the date.
Something about the uneven size of the hour markers and the small fat hour hand meant I would regularly misread the hour until I got used to it.
For $50 it's a good work watch, however unless you're really hard on watches I'd pay the extra for a better gshock. I wish the thing would die so I could replace it….
fifo between different time zones…
some gps based casio or seiko should be better.
or bluetooth connectivity from phone to sync the phone time.
of course much more expensive.
NIce find OP, fyi this model has a resin lens (never trust Amazon specs) which might make the decision for some to spend the extra $14.67 and buy the -

Doesn't the one you linked also have resin lens? Struggling to decide between the two. Like the looks and solar feature of the one in the deal, but also want to use it for measuring lap times on the bike which I think the one you linked would be better for.
No, G-Shocks don't have resin lens. They are mineral crystal.
Ah right, never trust Amazon specs!
Price has dropped to $51.69 now.
Lol @ 5 alarms.
Are you telling me it'll actually wake me up from sleep?
