Casio Women's BG169R-7B Baby-G Clear Whale Digital Sport Watch Review

I got this watch today in the mail and right out of the box I LOVED it! It is a white face with a clear overlay, a clear band, and a white buckle. There is also a stainless steel type ring around the face. It is VERY cute and I was not disappointed in the style. I can wear it with anything.
Out of the box it was set for EST with the correct day. It has instructions so you can change the time based on your time zone and you can also select whether or not it is Daylight Savings Time (DST.) The DST is a great function because you won't have to reset your watch during DST, just press a button and the watch will compensate +/- 1 hour.
There is also the day counter function. This function allows you set a day in the future, for me, since I am currently deployed, would be the day I return from Iraq. You could also use it to set the days until your vacation or a special occasion. It will count down the days you have left until that date. You can set up to 5 special dates.
There is also a World Clock. There are 29 time zones and you can pick the one that best suits your needs. For example, my children are on EST while I'm in Iraq, so I just set the World Clock to NYC Time Zone (East Coast) and I know exactly what time it is when I call there. While it doesn't take much to figure out the time difference, the watch having the exact time is more convenient. There is also an alarm, stopwatch, and a countdown timer that can be set for 1 minute up to 24 hours. There is also the option of a mute button for the operational functions. For example, generally when you push the 'mode' button on a watch to get from the time to say the stopwatch, the watch beeps; you can put that on mute. You will no longer hear a beep when you're scrolling through modes. The alarm, hourly beep, and countdown timer all still function normally.
The last thing is a data bank. You can store up to 25 records, each with a name and phone number. I'm still not sure what to do with this, seeing as most people have cell phones these days. I guess of you forget your cell phone and you need to write down a number you could just put the name and number in your watch.
As far as construction goes, I obviously haven't had this particular watch that long, but from what I understand G-Shocks are basically indestructible. I also know someone who has the same watch battery since 1996. He hasn't had to replace the battery in 13 years!
I am looking forward to a long life with this watch. The only downfall may be that I have heard the clear band may yellow with prolonged exposure to the sun and water. I would recommend this watch to anyone!
