Review Summary:
It is price very affordably and this might make you wonder if Casio made a mistake in pricing this timepiece. It not only packs a lot
Packed with a resin casing and held in place by a resin band, the Casio Solar Sport Men’s Watchdoesn’t hold back when it comes to value. In fact, as you can tell from the inclusion of the term solar powered sports watch ‘solar’ in its name, this Casio timepiece has quite a trick up its sleeve-it is solar powered.
Geared toward the active globe trotter and outdoorsman, this Casio watch is designed from the ground up to ensure that you aren’t dependent on batteries to tell the most accurate time possible. Powered by the sun, you are sure to always know the right time.
Besides the current time at your location, this Casio product also tracks time in 48 cities the world over. It also supports different languages.
So does this Casio model do a good job straddling the typical design and functionality tightrope walked by combination sports watches? It not only successfully walks the tightrope, it does somersaults as well.
That’s how well-put-together this timepiece is.
Housed in a compact resin housing, the Solar Sport packs a simple face but don’t let its seeming simplicity fool you. It’s four push features do a wide range of things that can serve you well depending on your situation. One button lights up the watch.
Another changes watch modes. Another button lets you do adjustments. Finally, another button provides a search function.
All this in a light, water resistant, sporty case that doesn’t start to look boring with time. Plus, this unit is powered by the sun so it can continue to provide all the functions you’ll grow to depend on it for without you having to worry about swapping batteries.
