Casio Men's EQW700DBJ-1A Edifice Solar Atomic Watch Review

I love this watch!That said, 1 hour after unpacking it I was convinced it was broken
and ready to send it back. NOT SO FAST!This watch is SOLAR powered. Yes it can maintain a sufficient
charge to function for one day if under flourescent light for 8 hrs, but its delivered to you after being in a totally
dark box (a cute Casio can) for a few months at least!Mine arrived with the display blank and the
analog hands frozen.No problem I thought..just a few minutes under a hologen lamp
and I'm good to go...right.Not so much.I read the "Home time zone" and "Manual time
setting" sections of the manual and proceded to push the appropriate buttons.Chaos.Nothing
responded acording to the manual.The problem.....not enough juice.When you get this watch
you should put it in direct sunlight (outdoors preferably) for 6 to 8 hrs. before attempting
anything...and I mean anything.Then and only then go first to page E-34 of the manual and
set the "Home Position" of the hands.Then go to page E-49 and set your time zone and local
time manually. Then, after dark, try a "manual receive" of the atomic time.I say after dark
because unless you live within 600 miles of Clorado, you probably will not get a satisfactory
signal during daylight.THEN, READ THE ENTIRE MANUAL.Yes it is small print and somewhat
difficult to decifer. But you cannot enjoy or controll this timepiece without understanding the
operating system.Complicated?....perhaps....worth it?....YOU BET!This watch will last you
a lifetime and you'll never need to replace a battery, worry about dailight savings changes or
leap years or 30-31 day month settings and never need to set the time.Only occasionally
will you need to do maintainance of exact hand position.Once FULLY charged (27 hrs direct
sunlight) this watch will maintain itself with ambient daylight and office flourescent light.
Beware the "tilt backlight feature"....this really sucks the power and is not really useful
after the Gee-wiz factor wears off.ENJOY!
