Rugged yet elegant clock with sophisticated technology

The case and the bracelet are made partly frosted, partly high-gloss stainless steel. The also satin caseback makes a massive impression and is attached with four screws. Engraved deep to find diverse Casio typical specifications. The watch glass is curved and closes with a small groove otherwise flush with the bezel off. It does not make one anti-glare effect. The four handles also appear to be made of stainless steel, however, have no tactile feedback on. Still, they are good to use.

The clock know except the World Time screen to any other features. Reported in some product alarm is just as available as a stopwatch or lighting function. Therefore, the operation is very easy to learn. The time synchronization with the time signal via radio is done according to instruction once a day and can also be started manually by pressing a key. The receiver works without problems when the clock is stored. On the other hand, the wrist, the damping seems too strong and reception proposes mostly fail.

The second hand moves with constant as long as the clock is used in the light. In the dark, it stops after a while. Once the clock is restored to light (or a lever is pressed), he begins to tick. The central minute hand moves in ten seconds grid, thus making six movements per minute. The hour hand follows the minute hand and moves absolutely imperceptibly. The 24-hour display for world time moves every minute. The weekday pointer "jumps" at 0:00 by one position.

In the dark, the luminous material enables the Central and pointers on the hour indicators, a relatively accurate reading of time. The brightness is sufficient and takes the first few minutes sharply. But there remains enough Restfloureszenz to all night read the time can.

Very successful is the choice of color of the clock: in addition to silver, anthracite and white, there are no other colors. Only the dial know in stronger light on a light brown color, which blends well with the anthracite of the bezel. The entire face is also slightly transparent, and one recognizes the underlying solar cells at their interstices. The pointer, the indicators of the full hour and the scale of the weekdays are high-gloss (the weekday scale, however, is "grooved").

Overall, the clock makes a very high-quality impression, which is partly located on the successful optics and partly on solid stainless steel housing. This clock is never wrong and is due to the world time function (incl. Wireless coverage in almost all corners of the Earth) to travel a faithful companion.

Unfortunately, the processing is not optimal: Between bezel and watch body is on the left a small gap (
For the smaller workmanship there a star deduction.
