I've only been wearing it for 2 days so far, but this watch has made it through two days gardening and banging around handwashing dishes no problem. I really like that this watch feels heavy-duty. I am no longer worried about dropping my watch or forgeting it's on when I jump in the shower. I am a big Disney fan and have bought countless watches disney themed only to be buying a new watch a few months down the road. I don't do much sporty stuff, but I needed a watch that wasn't gonna kick the bucket a few months down the road. As somebody else stated on the blue version of this watch, the color in the pictures aren't true to what the color actually is. The band is alot more sub-dued in color, kinda like a lavender/gray color see through jelly band, very pretty and more adult like than other sport watches with color on them. It does take a bit getting use to have a big face on the watch for me, but if it stays alive for me, I'll deal( I prefer more petite watches). If anything happens to it, I'll revise my review. :)
Great Watch

It's bigger than the average women's watch and very well made. It has a lot of neat features. Besides telling time and showing the date, it can store up to 20 phone numbers or other important info. It's a stopwatch, an alarm clock, and a world timekeeper. It also has a blue backlight and an hourly time signal. I love this watch.

This is a great looking watch. It goes well with my work attire. However, it isn't easy to program, set the time, etc. I know someone who actually returned it because it is so difficult to use. But, once you figure it out it is great!
Great watch for a great price...

Bought this watch for the girlfriend. She leads a very active lifestyle and this watch is perfect for her. It's lady-like, but super tough. And it tells time. Very little more you can ask for in a watch. Definitely recommend this watch. The one thing to keep in mind is that its a little on the large side, so if you want a dainty little watch, this is not it. Other than that, its fabulous.
Pretty good.

Much better then I expected. The watch I recieved looks quite different from the watch shown. It has a clear face instead of a purple one, also like others said the color is much more sub-dued then in the picture.

br /This is my first day wearing it and so far so good, I was very glad to have an alarm that is loud enough to wake someone like myself up.

br /The watch is a bit bulky if you are not used to wearing sport watches, though I am already getting used to it and loving it.

I like this watch. It is lightweight and comfortable, and does not feel bulky. The color is light enough that I can wear it in a format work setting and feel good. I gave it 4 stars only because the databank pages don't seem to automatically sort themselves into alphabetic format, remaining in the random order in which they were entered. Also, there are only 20 data pages, and I would have preferred 30. Otherwise, it is easy to program and the electro-illuminescent back-light is great.

I used to love G shocks so I bought this for my daughter about 7 months ago.
br /
br /Since then I had to remove the 4 screws that keep the plastic cover held down, (the ring-like cover that goes around and protects the side of the face - it's not integral) to clean under it. I just did this a second time since she has got it, and decided to warn others.
br /
br /It gets really disgusting and discolored from soap and dirt that gets stuck just under it. A good wash under water, is NOT enough to wash it away. It seems to be a design flaw and I am very disappointed.
br /
br /Note: Its still a tough and waterproof watch, it just gets ugly after awhile.

I love this watch .It's very cute.
br /And I think the color of the watch isn't so purple as in the picture.It's more like very light and clear gray.

What can i say about this watch. I love Baby-G watches and when I could not find one in IL or in Vegas I went online. It looks good on my arm and it works like I want it to. I mean, it's a watch. What can I say about a watch. It tells time fantasmagorically. I NEVER take it off. I love it and will continue to by Baby-G and only Baby-G.

This is a great watch. I wear it or one of the other two that I own everyday for work and play. It keeps great time and after a lot of searching, I found the BEST price on Amazon. I paid easily half price for this watch that still appears on the G-Shock website at full price. I'll always look at Amazon first.
Great!

Love this watch. I'm an E.R. RN and this is my work watch. Wears well despite body fluid splashes, banging it on equipment, etc... My only grievances are: It won't tell me the day of the week and year for example: "Fri., Aug 1st, 2008". I work weird hours so sometimes I do forget what day of the week and year it is.... Anyway LOVE IT!! Will buy another one when this one craps out.

I really like this watch. I like the sporty look. Very easy to set-up. I love the world clock feature. I got the watch right before a trip to Europe. So great to have the London Rome time zones just a few clicks away versus constantly resetting my watch manually....and easy reference to multiple time zones. I used the Alarm feature as well on my trip - very easy as it requests time zone info as well. Have used the stop watch on my runs - once again easy. I had to be careful on my last watch - as I'd accidentally reset the time at the end of a run because the stop reset were the same button. No fear of resetting as this one as start/stop reset are different buttons.

br /I really like the overall functionality look of the watch. Only problem I've had - in hot weather the plastic band irritates the inside of my wrist.

This is a great watch. It can keep track of two time zones so you can toggle back and forth if you want, has a chronograph, can store 20 phone numbers and has a count-down-the-days timer for 5 different events. Can only be scheduled out to 2039, so I guess they don't expect the watch to last longer than that.
br /
br /It is really not that difficult to set. It is not intuitive, but if you read the manual (easier to do on-line than to read the 2x3-inch pages of the booklet provided), it makes sense and is easy to do.
br /
br /As others have said, the color is misleading in the above photo. At first I was disappointed, especially since the buckle is white plastic. It looked cheap. But after wearing it a while, I really like it. The purple is a pale purple tint on a see-through jelly band. It almost looks blue. The face has a purple tinge, but the surrounding part is more of a pale grey. Overall it looks femine, but is closer in size to that of your usual men's watch. Since it is so pale, it actually looks more feminine and grown up that what it would have if it were more like the picture.
br /
br /It's a great watch. I have read a lot of reviews of this watch and it seems to be more reliable than Timex. I have owned four Timex Ironmans and had to send two of them back (to the tune of $10 each) for warranty repair. One stopped being waterproof after about 7 months, and the other had a malfunctioning alarm from the get-go. So far so good with the Casio (4 months and counting).

I bought this watch as a Christmass gift yet I haven't given to this girl who I'm too shy to let her know of my attraction. Anyhow I still have it and it's very nice. I also bought the mens Pathfinder and I'm happy with both.

It is more than a notion to think that you can set this watch. It automatically set the time but there are so many options that you can't just set it and put it on. I like the watch so I kept it but unfortunately I am only using 1/4 of the watch because I haven't made time to read the manual that came with the watch.
