Casio still doesn't get it:
--Why have a gizmo that can store 300 memos without providing for data backup via a PC link?
--Why do away with perhaps the most useful function--schedule memos--aside from telling time?
--Why make people scroll through a list for a calculator math function? They had this right in the older models, but are going backwards in terms of feature set!

Definitely a waste of money. 2 stars

This watch does what it is supposed to do, but in such a fashion that it makes it unpleasant to use it. I am dropping it in favour of a Timex Data Link, after a week of use.

I was looking for a watch to store my contacts and also schedules, especially birthdays and anniversaries which for me are completely impossible to remember. I used to have an earlier Casio Databank which neatly stored them for me and I decided to go for the better and more modern model, supposing Casio had improved what I once had.

The Hardware: Very good looking, but AFTER A FEW HOURS OF USE it starts showing all kinds of scrateches, so if you are going to wear it on your wrist go for the plastivc model.
The display is difficult to read and Casio has managed to use two overlapping screens one with a bue-ish tone whick makes it impossible to read, the utilities menu, especially if you use the also blue light.
The keypad of the calculator, which is also used to enter data is quite difficult to use and unfriendly with your fingertips.

The Software. The utilities menu is well thought, but once you get to the utilities themselves, the disappointment comes, data is difficult to enter, and untastefully displayed, a pity for such a good looking watch.
The worst of all (and this is my fault) there is no schedule mode, only five alarms with which I can enter my precious data to remeber my mommy's birthday and the project's deadline. I have no use for this watch. Althoug scratched all over, after one week, it will make a fine birthday present for some kid to store his girfriend's phone numbers.

Casio, come on guys, design something that connects with the PC so we don't have to punch all our data in. It can't be that difficult.

I have owned Casio Calculator watches for almost 25 years and this is the first one that has been a total disappointment. I have had it for less than 9 months and almost all the writing on the keys is gone. Also note that for some reason Casio has decided to invert the keypad which makes using it hard if you are used to a previous calculator watch. There are also no buttons for the math functions. You are forced to push one button to scroll through the functions. Pick another model if you are looking for a Casio Calculator watch. 1 star

I admit I do not own this watch but I played with it for quite a bit in the store, before deciding on one of casio's other databank models. The central problem with this watch is that it does not provide any schedule-memo as the traditional databank watches do. So although you can store as much data as you like and type it on the go (two other important features), you can't stick in that doctor's apt or school exam date and have the watch convienently remind you with a 2-week calendar at the top like casio's other models. I really wish Casio would come out with a model that has all the same features but includes the schedule-memo and I'd be sold.

I have been a user of CASIO wrist calculators for over 10 years.

Normally I am very impressed with the CASIO products and would be willing to pay way more than the prices asked for.

But on this model I found two major weaknesses.

1: The numbers on the keypad on my watch have faded away.
I am forced to buy a new watch and that is why I am back on this site.


2: The phone number display is not formatted as a normal phone number sequence. 1 star
