This watch existed before all the current fancy watches with 50 or more functions that most people don't need, don't use, & don't know how to use. This watch is elegantly simple, yet covers everything beneficial that most people will actually use: It tells time including seconds, has a daily alarm, tells you the date, day of the week, has a stopwatch & 30 minute timer. The latter is the BEST feature of any watch I've seen. This time is just the BEST for laundry, phone conversations, cooking, parking meters and so many other things....to help you stay focused, on track and organized. Like the other 2 reviews I really want Casio to remake this watch with a LIGHT and larger numbers and I bet they'd have a LOT of people buying it...The smaller size of this watch is actually nice...It is not all 'hulky' like the "Marathon/Triathalon" watches....(which let's face it, most of us aren't doing these!) How many people REALLY NEED FIVE ALARMS on a watch?  Come ON!

This particular watch worked fine for me in my 30's and 40's but now into my early 50's even though I just bought another one, (Left the last one somewhere while camping) I'd prefer the numbers display was larger and that the watch had a light, oh and an interesting green band with leaves and flowers...not just boring solid color plastic...something a bit more creative...even creative a band system that you could easily switch to different colors.
