I have Casio GW-M5600. It's a perfect watch.

- Looks like classic G-Shock.

- shows correct time always (time sync)

- never runs out of battery (solar charging).

Same with my pro-trek, aside from not working all that great indoors for sync.

Apparently Garmin have some Smartwatch that actually got low enough to also be pretty much constantly on Solar only power but after owning original Pebble I kinda healed myself from smartwatch hype before the fashion for them even started...

It's very large, though. I haven't found a radio-set 'square' Casio in the Baby G-Shock range which would be a better size.

No it's not. It's the size and look of classic small Casio.

I bought it maybe 10 years ago. I think it's "origin" series or something like that. They still sell them in ebay for ~$100.
