I am into watches... I muct have 50 or so, ranging from 80's Orient LED to modern flat Longines and other specialty watches. However, when it comes to wearing: I only wear one watch, my Oceanus OCW-500DA from Japan. Note that this is really UPSCALE Casio. This means SERIOUSLY upscale: there are no plastic parts and buttons. The watch packs some weight and I have been unable to get it scratched.
The reason I wear this watch is because of the key traits outlined in the title of this review: ALWAYS on time (mine can do multiple time zone Atomic server), never out of batteries (solar panel driven, similar to eco drive from Seiko/Citizen) and high quality everlasting components.
While I bought my 600$ + Oceanus I got my wife a Casio G-Shock tough Solar women's watch. That was 3 years ago, and that one gave out (the bank broke and some of the chrome coating came off. This would never happen to the Oceanus.
So I set out to replace hers with the Oceanus model of her choice.About this watch
It has everything you are looking for in a no-nonsense never think about it again watch:
- It looks really really nice, with a great face in a nice pink tone (its solar panels)
- It is heavy quality stainless. No chromed plastic parts here ad they would put in Casios
- The battery never runs out as it is constantly replenished by light (artificial light as well as sunlight, and even w/o light will run for 6 months in case you're a cave dweller or vampire)
- It is always exactly on time. Great for when you are a commuter: most railroad systems will stick closet ot their schedules and feed off of the same servers. When daylight savings kicks in there is no mistaking!
- Scratch resistant Sapphire glass and high quality band
What else? All the standard features (alarm, chime) from a regular watch as well as intelligent beeping sounds so that you can find the right settings in the dark. A flick-the-wrist-to-trigger-light so you can see in the dark. Illimilight arms so you can see what time it is without the light. Other zone second time setting and so on...
Cons
A little bulky/heavy but that comes with quality and features. Not noticable to others, just to the wearer.
My wife loves it.
Conclusion:
Any of the Oceanus watches is unique in that it pairs SOLAR ENERGY AND ATOM TIME. This is, to me, a must have combination in a watch.
Stay away from the much cheaper Casio's if you can afford it as these will last forever and therefore be a better deal in the long run.
A big Oceanus fan.
