First of all it's a casio, and with that comes the fact that it will take a beating and not quit...Really like the fact that the city codes it shows for the time zones are more in line with major cities that you may actually go to. Love that the world time is set up so you can see home time above the city in the world you may be in. Handy for when I gotta call my wife at home and I'm in a different time zone. Getting used to the dark display, my other casios all have the lighter screen...People criticize the timer, but for me it's excellent due to the fact you can do a long enough time option to cover any flight (since I work on airplanes, that's a great thing). I also like the strap, even though it's rubber, and usually they scratch or dig into my skin. The looks are great.
Now, to the negative...the alarms are very low compared to my other casios...and the even though the led options are great for the alarm/timer/etc., I wish it was like in the "mudman" where the whole circumference of the watch seemingly lights up. Unless it is really dark around you it's not that noticeable.
Only give it four stars because I can't sync the alarm to the city of the world I may be in, and because the alarm isn't loud enough for me....
As far as a watch and for the price....it's an excellent buy, perfect size if you have a smaller wrist. Good luck!!!
