I would love to have given this watch a five star, but for one glaringly useless function, yep, the light. Why would they even design a light that has no use, it just soils the Casio name and I love me some Casio watches. This light is a side light that neither illuminates the hands or let's you read the digital display, useless unless you just want to flip your wrist and say, look, It has a light.
The remaining functions work as they should and the hands didn't need to be nudged into position, they were spot on.
Overall this is a good looking G-shock, I like the colors a lot and the band, (though it could have been a little longer) is extremely comfortable. I can wear this all day with no irritation, I even fell asleep with it on and that's unusual.
The hands don't have any coating on them to make them viable or glow in the dark and since the light is useless, you will have trouble seeing the time at night.
I had to drop two stars because of the light issue, it's that bad.
