This solar-powered watch has a battery life of up to 5 months on a full charge (without further exposure to light).
This multi-band radio-controlled watch receives a time calibration signal transmitted from several locations across the globe (the U.S. and Japan), and it has an auto receive function (up to 6 times per day). You can choose to automatically receive this signal four times a day, or manually update the watch to the atomic clock.

Rating: - Nice Watch!
This is a nice watch and really worth the money. No batteries and no setting the time ever! I tried a couple of Casio atomic watches before this one and they all had problems receiving the signal to set the time (in east coast), this watch sets it self every time I leave it over night near a window. Looks decent too, it doesn't try to be all macho and tough!
Rating: - Great Idea of a Watch
I got a WVA430DJ-1A which is essentially the same as this watch with a stainless steel band. I want to place a review here so it may save you some time setting this one up.
I love the idea of the watch...no battery change , no time setting of the watch needed ever, even with daylight saving (spring forward/fall back -remember to set DST to Auto). On top of that you have 30 world times and stop watch...all in a very attractive package.
I gave this 4 stars instead of 5 because of the instructions. I had to wrestle with the settings for 2 hours before I got everything set ... Read More
Rating: - The Best Watch, PERIOD!!!
If you are interested in purchasing a Solar Powered Atomic Watch, then this is the watch of your dreams. I simply love this watch!!
Over the course of time, I have owned many watches, but this one by far is a keeper. I love it so much, that I am going to purchase another one as a backup.
I hadn't worn a watch for quite some time, so when I received my new watch, I accidentially bumped into the door latch as I was turning and put a scratch on the black outer coating of my new watch. I was very upset with myself, but it was my own fault. Low and behold after a few days, ... Read More
Rating: - nice watch for the money
i am very satisfied with this purchase. The manual is a bit of a bear, but once mastered, the watch works perfectly. seems to sych the time almost everynight even when i'm wearing it. Nice to have a watch that always has exact time and never needs batteries or winding.
Rating: - High quality, good value watch
I really enjoy this watch. It is stylish yet sporty. I have owned other Casio watches that were very large and bulky, and they were always tough and reliable. But this watch is tough without being bulky, and looks great even in a professional environment. Best features are the automatic time and date update - no more setting the time. It always has the perfect time and automatically updates every night. It also never needs a battery because it is solar powered - it does have a battery but it is recharged each day just with normal light exposure. It has a lot of digital options like alarms and back ... Read More
