Once I found out that there were watches that could calibrate their time daily, I decided to check this out. I found this unit, the Casio GWM5600V1, on Amazon for under $100.
The watch calibrates itself by signal daily with a transmitter located in Colorado. So, it is never more than a split-second off from the actual time. I was looking for a watch where I would never have to set it. The Casio GWM5600V1 hasn't needed setting and I have the confidence of knowing the time is always accurate.
The watch is also green in that it is solar powered. There is an indicator on the face as to whether the charge level is low, medium or high. During the summer, it stays hig from my time in the sun. During fall and spring, or even winter, I will place it in the sun for an hour or so to charge. It can also get recharge from artificial light, but that takes longer.
The black metal band was comfortable for me and looks great, as does the face which has black trim with orange accents. It also has lighting for reading in the dark.
The watch sets based on your time zone. It also features an alarm, an hourly chime, countdown timer and stopwatch.
The Casio GWM5600V1 is worth the money. It's actually among the least expensive watches that wirelessly calibrate.
