I had 2 major problems when my Casio PAW500 watch arrived. One was that the alarm and timer emitted no sound, and other was that the altimeter varied by over 100 feet as I stood still and took successive readings.

But the major problem is repair and support. Their web site forces you to choose the problem from a list, but my problem wasn’t there. When the watch was returned, same problem, so I sent it back. The web site tracking system that Casio has showed a mismatched combo of the first repair trip and the second one, and they emailed me that the watch was fine and was being returned. I waited a week and emailed them to find out why I didn’t have the watch, and they told me that it had just been sitting there. If I hadn’t asked about it, it would probably still be sitting on their shelf somewhere. When I finally got it back, I tested the alarm signal, and finally realized that the tone was so weak that I could barely hear it if I held the watch to my ear. And my hearing is fine. They also told me that the altimeter operated within specifications.

I’ve bought my last Casio product.

This book is a complete deception from satan. It does NOT go by the Bible, nor the truth of God’s Word. I read the whole set years ago and it completely deceived me. It teaches that there is no such thing as evil and that we make that up. This is false, leading anyone who is not grounded on the truth of God’s Word, that you can live anyway you want without any consequences (hell, regret, no morals, bad decisions) or worse it doesn’t even claim salvation of Jesus Christ! So this cannot be a conversation with God, but with the devil. After being a born again Christian more than a year ago, God revealed to me that anything that does not say that Jesus Christ is the son of God, is antichrist. “And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.” 1 John 4:3. Also, God told me this is from the New Age movement, that you can be your own god creating your own morals. Many of the philosophies written by this author may sound, taste, and even feel good to believe but it does not mean it is good. For anyone out there who is truly seeking a relationship with God and the truth, read the bible. That is the only book that will not lead you into deception, bad decisions, and regret. The bible will lead you into a rich and TRUE relationship with God through the Lord Jesus Christ. Please whatever you do stay away from this author and his books! I warn you.

I got this watch for my mother who is far sighted. It has a large face and is very easy for her to read. It is also attractive looking.

I bought one of these a year or two back because I wanted the features of my GW5600 G-Shock without all the clunkiness. The fact that it is available in brown & green was really nice, because I could wear it to work and it matches khakis.

One day, I decided it is a disposable watch. I needed a clock on my motorcycle, so I took this off the band and used double-stick tape to stick it to the gas tank. Sold the bike and the watch went with it.

I have missed it ever since.

Another thing it has over the G-Shock is that the buttons protrude a bit and are easy to press.

The light is a proper backlight, and the button is front & center, but not too easy to press accidentally.

The one feature that is getting harder and harder to find, but is super-useful is the countdown timer. The basic digital watches don’t have it. It is useful for reminding oneself to change laundry, to time frozen pizza in the oven, and even to time the brewing time on a pot of tea.

The last thing that is really nice about this watch is that the leather/nylon strap is much more comfortable than the resin strap on most of the Casios in this price range. It breathes a bit, instead of sticking to your wrist.

I miss this watch and will buy another one shortly.

For reference, this seems to weigh about 1/3 as much as a G-Shock and has a smooth profile that easily fits under shirt sleeves. I don’t believe it has a mineral crystal, so it will scratch easier, but that doesn’t really matter. It will still be legible.

The green LCD background also makes it easier to read than a gray on gray, like most of them have.

I highly recommend this watch.

This is the fourth pedometer I’ve had. One got lost, another fell into the toilet, and none would come close to counting the steps in the house with carpeting. I like the feature where it automatically sets to zero for each day. I’m glad I read the reviews before purchasing from Amazon because the one negative seemed to be the clip not anchoring strongly enough and thus it was easy to lose. Sure enough, the first day I was wearing it around the house it came unclipped. Fortunately the next day the safety leash I ordered arrived and twice it has kept the pedometer from dropping unexpectedly. The lack of a strong clip is the only reason I gave it four stars.

I bought this game as a gift for my father (on Father’s day), and the quality is excellent. We very much enjoy it as a family. It is definitely worth buying as a gift. The price is not too expensive, and it ships very fast because I also paid extra fee in order for it to be shipped to my home by 2 days, and it did. Once again, it was in excellent shape and conditions. Undoubtedly a 5 out 5 rating.

Not sure I buy the premise of this book, that God speaks through the author. But, I have only read a few pages. Maybe it will get more interesting as I go along.

This watch is a “smaller” men’s watch, just what I wanted and is the perfect size for me. The product specifications clearly show it to be 35mm in diameter, which it is, and 10mm (3/8″) smaller than the similar AMW320R-1EV. The description also says the case is 8mm thick, but the actual watch is closer to 12 or 13 mm (I did not use anything precise). The overall case size is virtually the same as the Casio AW80V-1BV that I’m replacing. The bezel also rotates, which is not clear from the product description.

I bought this to replace my AW80V-1BV, which was a disappointing Casio product (it died after 19 months), but not disappointing enough to make me steer away from Casio.

I rated four stars because I don’t know about the durability. I would have liked a countdown timer, but I definitely wanted a durable (100m or better rating) watch that DID NOT have a mechanical date, as I hate to reset them in the five months with fewer than 31 days. And the description of the features is accurate, so I knew there wouldn’t be a timer. I don’t need a light because I have little need to read it in the dark. (And though my AW80V had a light, it wasn’t very good anyway.)

It’s just what I wanted.

This book will resonate deeply in all those whom are ready to access your inner voice. It’s logical and meaningful. If you are looking for answers that make you say “wow, that feels right”,….answers that you can’t find in societies ‘religious institutions’ you have found the right book!

This is an AWESOME value. I’m loving it’s cleaning power so far. It is a bit loud, as stated, but that a good trade-off for the price and performance.
