I have owned this watch for over a year, I love the the look of the watch and have had many complements from friends and strangers on this watch. All the features are very useful although I don't use the temp or the compass as much as I thought I would.  Now to the things I don't like about this watch, First I scratched this watch about 2 months after I bought it (it is rare that i scratch a watch), a small scratch at the 7 o'clock - by just an accidental knock against a wall.  Not a huge deal but considering my other G-shock (a DW6900MS-1CR that I have put though Hell) has no scratches, make me feel the glass should have better protection or upgrade to sapphire. The Big deal is the hands get in the way of reading the digital displays and can't be moved temporarily to to avoid this issue, Why? this is very annoying when you want to use the timer or stop watch feature. And Finally the Lume/Light feature is a Big flaw, I cant believe there is no back light for the digital displays Why? this is a feature on some of the most inexpensive G-shock models but not on this one and makes it impossible to see the digital display in darkness using only the watch light. The watch light is also very unimpressive and far below the quality this watch deserves.
If this watch had an awesome back-light and had a function to move the hands out way of the digital displays it would be awesome, I still like this watch and use it regularly I LOVE the look and the functions but I am occasionally annoyed by its flaws.
