Clear band quickly turns an ugly brownNov 29, 2010
By Dr Poopstein I have had this watch for about one year. I love the features of the Baby-G.
However, I have the clear watch band, and it has turned an icky brown color. This happened relatively quickly: maybe after 4-6 months.
At first I thought it was from gardening while wearing the watch, but I think it is from UV light.
The brown tint is throughout the band and also throughout the jelly that surrounds the dial. It looks awful.
I recommend getting a different color. I am considering the solid colors for my next watch, but will want to get from a store that guarantees the watch, no questions.

Great for Fasion AND Function!!Nov 08, 2009
By S. FISHER I got this watch today in the mail and right out of the box I LOVED it! It is a white face with a clear overlay, a clear band, and a white buckle. There is also a stainless steel type ring around the face. It is VERY cute and I was not disappointed in the style. I can wear it with anything. Out of the box it was set for EST with the correct day. It has instructions so you can change the time based on your time zone and you can also select whether or not it is Daylight Savings Time (DST.) The DST is a great function because you won't have to reset your watch during DST, just press a button and the watch will compensate +/- 1 hour. There is also the day counter function. This function allows you set a day in the future, for me, since I am currently deployed, would be the day I return from Iraq. You could also use it to set the days until your vacation or a special occasion. It will count down the days you have left until that date. You can set up to 5 special dates. There is also a World Clock. There are 29 time zones and you can pick the one that best suits your needs. For example, my children are on EST while I'm in Iraq, so I just set the World Clock to NYC Time Zone (East Coast) and I know exactly what time it is when I call there. While it doesn't take much to figure out the time difference, the watch having the exact time is more convenient. There is also an alarm, stopwatch, and a countdown timer that can be set for 1 minute up to 24 hours. There is also the option of a mute button for the operational functions. For example, generally when you push the 'mode' button on a watch to get from the time to say the stopwatch, the watch beeps; you can put that on mute. You will no longer hear a beep when you're scrolling through modes. The alarm, hourly beep, and countdown timer all still function normally. The last thing is a data bank. You can store up to 25 records, each with a name and phone number. I'm still not sure what to do with this, seeing as most people have cell phones these days. I guess of you forget your cell phone and you need to write down a number you could just put the name and number in your watch. As far as construction goes, I obviously haven't had this particular watch that long, but from what I understand G-Shocks are basically indestructible. I also know someone who has the same watch battery since 1996. He hasn't had to replace the battery in 13 years! I am looking forward to a long life with this watch. The only downfall may be that I have heard the clear band may yellow with prolonged exposure to the sun and water. I would recommend this watch to anyone!

Casio Women's Baby G Clear watchOct 29, 2010
By A.M. As a mother of three, I wanted a watch to help me keep up with my busy day. The Casio Baby G has all the features I was looking for - several alarms (5), stopwatch, and countdown timer - plus a few others that I'll probably rarely use, like the Data Bank. I used the Data Bank one day for a phone number I needed just once - it was fiddly to program, but served its purpose. I don't always remember to charge my cell phone, so it could come in handy, but I think I'd be more inclined to use the pen and paper I carry in my purse. The World Time mode is set and I'll check it occasionally when I need to make an international call. I found the Day Counter mode completely unhelpful - when it reaches your target date, a teeny indicator in the top right of the watch face flashes. Since other indicators there are also in use, the flashing is hardly noticeable. I think a beep/alarm would be more helpful.
I bought the watch mostly for the digital features. I chose the clear face and band because it's more neutral. What surprised me was the size of the watch. I had a digital watch when I was a kid that had a good few features (stopwatch etc.) and was at least half the size - and I thought digital technology had come along since then! Perhaps the size is because of the waterproofing? Waterproofing is handy since I have my hands in water often during the day, but the bulkiness of the watch is not worth it - I take the watch off as soon as I come in the house because I can't stand to wear it a minute longer! It's not just the size - the "resin" band (fancy name for plastic?) is horribly uncomfortable. They recommend that you wear the band loosely enough so that you can insert a finger under it, but even so the watch is uncomfortable - the watch face slides to the outside of my arm, and on a hot day it sticks to me every so often. I've adjusted the band repeatedly trying to find a comfortable spot (still keeping a minimum one finger spacing) but it's just not there. Perhaps at 6 1/2" my wrist is just the wrong size for this watch? I've had the watch three weeks, but since it's plastic, I don't know if regular wear is going to make it any more comfortable. I may have to investigate other band options.

Casio watchDec 27, 2009
By S. Griggs Nice looking tho rather large watch. I gave this to my daughter in law for Christmas per her wish list request. She seemed to be happy with it. It is a pretty watch and I like the clear design. The large size gives the watch some fashion sense. My experience with Casio is it's great dependability as a quality product that last.

So cute and classy!!!Sep 15, 2010
By T Naps
"Tracie"
i previously owned the white whale baby g and loved it! It was so cute. Then one day I lost it. I was so sad! So I decided to buy another, and picked clear this time. Well, it's even cuter than the white one! I get lots of compliments on it. I have a really small wrist, and it still looks great--not too big! Love, love, love it!!!
