Atomic (US only) - Receives the signal from the Atomic clock in Ft. Collins, Colorado
Amazon.com Product DescriptionThe perfect training partner for your active sporting lifestyle, this Casio G-Shock men's digital sport watch (model GW700A-1V) offers a black resin case that's accented by a silver top ring and light digital gray display as well as a black resin strap. It's also solar-powered and wirelessly receives atomic time updates. It offers a 1/100-second stopwatch with a 60-minute measuring capacity and a time recorder with up to 30 records, It also features four independent daily alarms (with one snooze alarm), world time from 30 cities, and an autocalendar (to the year 2039). And because it's solar-powered--charging in either sunlight or indoor light--you'll never have to deal with changing the battery. Other features include a scratch-resistant mineral crystal, AfterGlow LED electro-luminescent backlight, and water resistance to 200 meters (660 feet)--suitable for recreational scuba diving.
This radio-controlled watch receives a time calibration signal transmitted from Fort Collins, Colorado, and signal reception is possible within a radius of about 2,000 miles from the Fort Collins transmitter. You can choose to automatically receive this signal four times a day, or manually update the watch to the atomic clock.
What Others Say
A superior product at a good price
It's great to be able to buy a super-accurate watch at an affordable price without the illustrious name(s) of Rolex or Omega attached to it.
Cool
I like this watch, but it's not perfect. The tough solar and atomic functions work great. Although it has 5 alarms (4 and a snooze alarm), it doesn't have a countdown alarm.
My previous solar-powered G-shock only lasted 6 years before the battery died. Is that the 'lifetime' of the product, as the tough-solar claims? It was not easy to find a replacement battery for that older watch, and I've heard that water resistance often fails after opening the watch up to replace the battery. You're supposed to change out the rubber seals inside every few years too, but that doesn't appear easy or plausible. It's not like there's anyplace online where you could buy them, for example.

Awesome
I bought this G-Shock to replace my (still running!) 15 year old G-Shock watch. While the old unit still runs, I found that the protective rubber that encases the electronics of the watch was starting to fall apart, so the watch is essentially exposed now. It still looks like it could take a beating, but there are exposed metal rivets that keep on snagging on things. Those rivets tend to get caught in your sleeves and will start to tear the fabric over repeated wearings, so I finally gave in, and bought this new model.
Of course the new model is just as G-Shock tough as my old unit, and I'd expect no less. But in the world of electronics, 15 years is a long time, and this new watch eclipses the old one with it's new features.

Great Watch
I bought the watch about 2 months ago. I've had no problems and it has been great! Looks great too.
Nice Watch
Watch works as advertised. Synchronization keeps it accurate. Easy to read display. Took 1 star off because I think the watch will last longer than the band.... then what.
Overall it looks good, and is probably a good rugged watch
