Casio Men's Waveceptor Solar Atomic Ana-Digi Sport Watch #WV430DJ-1


Depending on how your Waveceptor is put together will determine if your watch is water resistant; My Waveceptor is not!!!

On the outside this watch is all metal, but that is where it ends. The four screws holding the stainless back on are anchored into a plastic casing on inside the watch. When my watch was made one of the screws must have been stripped allowing the back to let in moisture. I didn't send the watch in to get "fixed" and decided to dry the watch out myself. (Note: Had I sent the watch in for repair this may have been a three star review.) Well I've had to dry my watch out three times and can not wear it hiking as the sweat from my body will fog up the watch crystal.

Speaking of the crystal. I can understand why it is not made out of glass as it has to let through as much light as possible to charge the battery.

All in all this is a great timepiece. I just would not recommend you wear it near water or during any sports activities.
