great value, solar powered, perfect size - not gaudy...
bought this for a vacation, didn't want to take my expensive watch draw unwanted attention... as I started to unpack the features, and for the price they are impressive, it also looks good to boot... I will be traveling many time zones away and can toggle between home time and where I'm staying easy - makes sending texts/photos more considerate...the Analog dial is easy to read at a glance, and yes the digital screen is small but is easy to read the data, for the money this is a great watch, Casio is one of the best at this price point, if need be - lost or destroyed - would buy again.

Very Nice Watch works well
Great watch so far solar recharging works great easy to see and read and works great for what I want pretty much being able to see the time and date really don't use any of the other functions on the watch very comfortable band seems very sturdy and well made I have had a number of these style watches over the past several years and really enjoy them but they last about a year or year and a half and either the strap breaks or the battery runs out This Casio so far seems much sturdier than the cheaper watches I have owned and the solar powered battery will allow it to last several years so for me its just what I wanted a simple watch that is easy to read, looks good and should last me for 10 years or more just what I wanted and at a very reasonable price for what you get in the watch will update after I've had it a few years to see how it actually holds up but so far seems excellent and a great buy

Not a G but just as good IMO
Solar, mineral crystal, excellent color (mine is green) - almost the perfect watch. Big but light and comfortable. Good for old person eyes, easy to read. The digital window is hard for me to read but "its there". Its not officially a G-Shock but its touch, Solar and waterproof so I am just as happy and the price...$$ is right.

Casio Tough Solar No Lighted dial, Just Date Box
A picture of how it lights at night would kill all sales if anyone needs a good readable watch in the dark with a lighted dial as the description says. Just the little LCD insert lights up so it shows just the day and seconds. I guess the date of the day can't fit in the little rectangular LCD insert. I collect watches and this Casio Tough Solar is a superb analog dial watch for working with. This one is solar, so the price is good for that feature, as most Casios may be quartz battery types. This one is for an off shore sea worker so it will stand up to the tough work he does. I wore my Casio, a digital solar, for 14 years now and I build, work hard and these watches from Casio can last surprisingly long. Other brand watches would finally give out for one reason or another as a work watch. The price for this one is affordable for a simple but tough watch that will last over a decade, maybe two.

BEST CASIO I HAVE EVER OWNED!
If you're like me and you like the look of a Tag Heuer Formula 1 watch combined with digital accuracy and a FOREVER battery, then this watch is a MUST, especially at 39 percent off list!!! I owned a Tag Heuer Formula 1 watch for about 8 years when the battery ran out for the third time. In this post-lockdown era of skilled labor shortages, your only option for getting a new battery installed is to send it back to the Tag USA headquarters in NJ. So I did that and to my surprise after waiting over a month, they said it would cost over $300 to replace the battery and perform maintenance on all of the seals. No thanks - this Casio is a much better value, with the perpetual solar battery (watch came fully charged), sharp Formula 1 looks, and the digital accuracy. I was amazed when I first set the time on the watch: you set the correct time zone and then the time automatically is set by satellite. The really amazing part is that the minute and hour hands then automatically synced themselves to the correct time - I have never seen that before. In fact, you can't even set the hands manually. What an incredibly good-looking watch and accurate for the price. It's also really lightweight and thinner so not clunky, and with my thinner wrists, the diameter is just right! Lastly, the luminescence of the dials is adequate -- I can see the time in pitch black darkness but it's not strong. And as others have mentioned, the LED screen is a tad small and hard to read when the hands are in the vicinity. The only real weakness: the mineral glass already shows an abrasion line after just under a month. Sapphire mineral glass it is not, but then for the price, you can't get a better deal overall than this!

Easy to read, accurate, but with some downsides
Overall this is a decent watch at this price point. Solar charging/recharging is good so far. Readability of the analog dial is excellent, but the digital display is a bit small. The features of this watch are quite good - you can even adjust the time the light stays on, from 1-3 seconds. I haven't had it long yet, but I would expect it to be fairly durable.The digital display is pretty small. As a consequence, the DAY can be displayed, but not with the DATE. Instead Casio has inexplicably included SECONDS. When switching mode on the display to DATE, the DAY is similarly not displayed (again you get seconds). This is annoying and it seems this could have been easily remedied in design.Although this is an inexpensive watch, the hands and select makers have a basic Lume applied, which actually works pretty well. This is a nice add-on for a watch at this price point.My watch arrived in excellent/pristine condition with all tags, manuals, and boxes. It appears to be a genuine Casio, not a knockoff. Overall here are the pros and cons:PROS- Inexpensive- Solar powered- Nice analog time keeping with small digital supplement for day/date, stopwatch, etc.- Decent adjustable light- Decent hand and marker Lume.- Overall good build quality and features at this price point.CONS- Small date display that is a bit hard to read.- DAY and DATE cannot be simultaneously displayed in the digital screen. A mode change is necessary to get both.Overall a really good product for the price. I'd prefer to give it 4.5 stars, but I've rounded up to 5 considering how inexpensive it is.
