    Not bad, apart from the date and the '3'. Rather have a Hamilton or Seiko, though.

    Too bad they don't have any light...
    That's a deal breaker. Timex Weekender is a better choice for me.

    You have the Hamilton already don't you? This is in a completely different price bracket to Hamilton, and lower than equivalent Seikos too, unless I'm missing any.

    Surely the dream is a solar watch with Indiglo, where the Indiglo charges the watch....

    I do have the Hamilton, and I've previously owned the Seiko. I recognise the relevance of the different market sectors, and I like Casio - but not when they produce a watch that looks more like something else than a Casio.

    To buy this Casio I'd need to be sure that the Seiko and Hamilton were completely unattainable.

    Ah, that makes a lot of sense.
