 Excellent watch for all occasions! October 24, 2008

I shall keep this short- after all, for somebody who wants to buy a radio controlled (thus extremely accurate) watch, I'm sure time is of the essence, so I won't keep you long!
This is one of the cheapest RC watches on the market. It is sleek and sexy, and has all the functions you would expect for a watch in this price range- stopwatch, countdown timer, alarm, etc.
The initial setup is a small hindrance but after the setup, the watch keeps time superbly. However, as far as I can gather, the watch does not constantly update itself as you may expect. You may think, as I did, that if you are in an area of strong signal strength, that the watch would be receiving to-the-millisecond radio signals, constantly. It turns out it only receives signals up to 6 times a day, and from my experience, it does not appear even to do that. The watch can tell you the last time it received a signal... and on Tuesday afternoon, my latest signal was still at 2:03AM on Sunday morning. Nevertheless, manually telling it to receive a signal is pretty easy and you should still be accurate to the millisecond even if you only receive one signal per week.
The blue light displays the screen nicely, although it ism impossible to see in daylight (not that you would need to)!
All of the details you could possibly need are available at a glance on the default page- the date, the day, the year, the signal strength, and of course, the time!
I have no real quibbles with this watch. Waterproof, shockproof, indecently accurate, and complete with a warranty, what more would you want?
On a final note, the screen itself is quite sturdy. I have often found that my screen has scratched over the course of a week or two, but so far the screen is still immaculate. Maybe I've just been taking better care of it!

For 19 you can't go wrong with this. The light is powerful with a bright blue glow, the strap is comfortable, the watch is light, easy to read, waterproof, alarm, and has wave ceptor technology so totally accurate as long as you get the signal. It's not a rolex, but as a cheap digital watch for holidays or playing sports, you can't really do any better than this.

Casio Waveceptor WV-58U-1AVEF
This is another area where casio have come up trumps. A watch you only have to set once (unless you change the battery) and from there it does it all by itself by picking up the time from a radio frequency emitted form the atomic clock in rugby. I've noticed that the clocks on most Railway stations are very much in line with the time set by the waveceptor feature so that's helpful to me. If you go abroad, just tell it where you are and it will pick up the frequency for that timezone (most of Europe covered) and hey presto, sets itself to the correct time. It makes you realise how much time some other watches lose over a period of time. I have this on a metal strap and it was pretty simple to adjust if you use the right tools or around 10 from most jewellery shops. Pop out the pins, remove links and reinsert pins. The watch itself is made from plastic and painted silver so if you scratch it, it will notice. All the usual functions, stopwatch, alarm and waterproof to 50m. Comfortable to wear although the metal strap has a habit of waxing your wrist every now and again. I'd rate it as 4/5 considering the price and as it's a casio it's about as reliable as digital any watch you could get.
 Great technology but don't buy on the internet July 7, 2007

Having bought from a shop an upmarket version of the same watch (WVA-210DU-2AVER), which is excellent, I bought a cheaper version for someone who is unable to adjust the time manually. It worked well for about a year then the resin strap broke. I took it to their official agent (H. Samuel) who sent it to Casio for a repair estimate. After 3 weeks, I learnt this would be almost 30 pounds. They advised me that Casio resin straps are substandard! I asked: "if so, why sell them?" - no reply. I decided against repair and purchased a similar model but with a metal bracelet (WV-58DU-1AVEF) from popcorn-uk... but ** the bracelet cannot be adjusted **. Casio advised against *anyone* doing the adjustment except them. They offered to make the adjustment free of charge (several weeks duration) if I tell them the wrist circumference. But I think that the reseller and manufacturer should not sell goods which cannot be fitted correctly and are therefore "unfit for purpose" as defined in UK law. If you buy one, go to a someone who (despite Casio's warning) will sell you one that actually fits. But the technology is superb!
