I purchased this watch in 2008.  I loved it so much that I ended up purchasing another just in case I lost or broke the original.  This watch is handsome and it has large numbers.  I really don't have to have the large numbers, but they are easy to read fast if you need to.  It has all the functions you would want as listed in the description.  Part of what I like about it is the old style look of casio like I had in the 80's.  I have not had any battery problems at all, and for the price, if I did I would just replace the watch.  The watch is well worth the price.  Heck, it is a bargain.
