This is my third G-Shock watch in the last 25 years. My first lasted over 15 years; my second (DW-6900), sadly, was lost on a recent trip to Canada. I almost got an exact replacement, but it occurred to me that this was an opportunity to upgrade to a G-Shock with more features, so I started looking at the new line. I considered the upgraded version of my old watch, dubbed the GW-6900, but it was a 4-6 week wait time thru Amazon, and I didn't want to be without a G-Shock on my wrist for that long :)I settled on the G-7900 as it had an interesting display layout -- not quite as symmetrical as the DW/GW-6900, but very readable -- important since I am now in my mid-40's, and I can't always locate my reading glasses! No atomic timekeeping or solar recharging, as on the GW-6900, but I realized that at this point, I don't really need those features.The G-7900 has a nice, beefy feel to it, and though I was a little dubious about the rubber "wings" attached to the strap, they actually make the watch more comfortable to wear by keeping it from moving around on my wrist. I also much prefer the G-7900's chunky rubberized buttons over the smaller round metallic buttons on my old watch. Another great feature of this watch is the ability to move forward and backward while setting time, alarms, etc. - my old watch would only allow forward movement through the settings, so if you missed the mark, you'd have to go all the way around to it again - seemingly a minor thing, but I did find it rather aggravating. The G-7900's moon phase feature is cool, but since I live in northern Texas, I doubt the tide feature will get used much :)About the only thing I can think of that could be considered a minus would be the backlighting; it's not as bright as the backlighting on my old watch. I will say, though, that the watch is readable in all but the lowest light, and in very dim settings, the backlight is quite adequate to illuminate the display. Maybe Casio implemented this dimmer lighting to save battery life?Overall, I have to say that I LOVE my new watch. If you're a G-Shock fan, I would suggest that you take a look at the G-7900; if you're not currently a G-Shock fan, check one out -- you, too, might find something new to love.

I have owned many G Shock watches since the 1980's with digital types being in the majority. This particular model has a great module and is well known among G Shock aficionados . There are a number of features both utilitarian and of interest in this model--the two stopwatch features and the Moon phases are of particular interest for me It is well built--like most G's--and comfortable to wear. The price is quite reasonable for the features of this G.

After umpteen years, I lost my old Casio watch and ordered a new one. Uhmmmm, Casio couldn't leave things alone and juggled features on its watches - and pricing. The first two replacement Casio watches went back because they were lacking features I wanted, like a time that went more than 60 minutes and buttons that I could actually push. (I wish Amazon and Casio would provide more detailed information on features on the respective websites. A feature comparison chart would be a great help.) This one provides two long-duration stopwatches (which I will make frequent use of), a countdown timer (another must-have for me) and five alarms (which I will rarely use). It has an interesting and minimally useful graphic stopwatch indicator and a tidal chart which is useless in the Midwest. (Lake Michigan, the nearest large body of water to me, has a tidal movement of about one inch.) It does not have an atomic clock synchronization feature, which I would like, but is reserved for the next pricing level which is more than I want to spend. The G-Shock watches look huge in the photos and they are bigger than the typical watch. However, despite being large, they are not at all heavy. The band has a pair of "wings" which stabilize the watch on your wrist, a very nice feature. The face is reasonably uncluttered and the time and date are large and can be easily seen. The light switch is large and on the front, which makes it much more readily accessible than on most of the watches I've owned. Finally, the buttons for mode adjustment and stopwatches and timers are wonderfully large, which makes using the watch a joy. Timekeeping accuracy for the week I've had it is excellent. Altogether, a very nice package and a more than adequate replacement for my lost Casio.Jerry

For it's size, it is very comfortable. It is also very solid and tough for the money. Love the moon and tide features as well. Overall, very happy with this purchase. Sidenote: It's the same watch John Krasinski wore in 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi.

Product is great! However it took the company 4 days past the delivery date to deliver this product to me. Otherwise I would have given a 5/5 for this product.

Good general purpose (GP) watch. It's not too large for those who have a small wrist. Moon phase and Tide data are spot on. A good EDC for camping, hiking and fishing (660 feet of water resistance) or most water sports.
