great watch, I use it to do rough work, takes punishment and I will probably never change the batteries due to it being in the sun all the time. I got that dark olive model with the orange highlights.
Thank you for the comment. That’s awesome to hear that the watch has been running for you for five years with no problems. I bought the Watch a couple weeks ago for a review and I like it so much that I put it in my collection. I hope I can get many years a good service out of it .
@@GokulVS-t4w I’m surprised the color wore off on the watch. I was kind of worried about the band because it’s a little more stiff material than some of the usual Casio’s that I do reviews on. In my mind, I was thinking, maybe the band would crack after a couple years.
Casio makes the same Watch in many colors. This was the cheapest solar powered watch that I could find online. Casio makes many different solar powered watches, but most of them are more money. Any Casio or G-Shock that says tough solar is solar powered. Thank you for the comment.
Thank you for the comment. The battery definitely has to be charged by the sun, but never have to be replaced. Casio recommends half a day of sunshine once a month. Not bad considering my Apple Watch has to be charged every night.
@@SrJonAnthony I think if I got 5years or more out of the Watch, I’d be super happy. I think the weakest link on the watch is the band. I noticed the material the band is made out of is a little bit stiffer than some of my other Casio watches. it is a budget watch so I can’t expect it to be a Rolex for $40.
@@SrJonAnthony definitely agree it’s probably the same as just changing a battery. Now I’m kind of curious, I want to open up the Watch and see what they use inside for a battery.
I have this watch . Working successfully 2 years

Really very nice >>>>>> Thank you .
I have the all black version, AQ-S810W, it’s an awesome solar powered analog/digital watch with illumination… I call it the poor mans CasiOak.
It is definitely an awesome watch for the money. It is one of my favorite every day watches.
Ive had this watch for 5yrs+ now and atill runs smoothly never replaced the battery

At least the batteries are cheap and easy to replace too.
@@Beyondthebox11 the orange letters disappear after a while though

Only this model? For solar power?

I own 4 solar casios, and yes in fact the silar batteries do not last forever. They are rated for 5-10years.

@@Beyondthebox11so now we agree? Lol. Well you could just change the solar battery at that 5year point, its the same as a regular battery really.
