This review is from: Casio Men's MTG900DA-8V G-Shock MT-G Atomic Tough Solar Watch (Watch)
I bought my Casio Men's MTG900DA-8V over four years ago, and I was surprised to find Casio Men's MTG900DA-8V still being produced and sold by Casio as I browsed Amazon's watch selection.
Overall, I think Casio Men's MTG900DA-8V is a great timepiece, and I have never regretted buying mine. But, you will notice that I only gave it four stars, because like anything made by man, it isn't perfect. Here's the scoop:
>> Pro's <<
1. Superb accuracy. I live near Atlanta, Georgia, which is probably close to the limit of this watch's radio reception range. But even here, my watch will sync with the atomic time station over 99% of the time. But as another reviewer said, you will probably have to experiment with locations within your house where you leave the watch for its overnight radio sync process.
2. Not just water-resistant, this thing is waterproof. I have worn mine while doing all kinds of nasty chores, including mowing, weeding and related dirty jobs. And when I get in the shower afterward, I just leave the Casio Men's MTG900DA-8V on so that

gets a good clean-up, too. Never a problem.
3. Very tough. Again, I've worn mine doing some pretty harsh work, including using a chain-saw, axe and hammer. Never a problem.
4. The solar power is great. Some people may think that solar power is a gimmick, but here's the deal: since you should never have to replace a battery, your water-resistant (or waterproof) watch will stay that way. All my previous watches, including some pretty expensive ones, lost their water-resistance after they had a battery change. (Casio does say that their rechargeable batteries may need replacing some day, but mine are still going strong after more than four years.)
