TweetEmailView the Casio Giez 1000BJ Photo Gallery.We first mentioned the Casio Giez 1000BJ almost a year ago, but we didn't have much to say other than its very cool looking, it's only available in Japan, and its insides are almost identical to the Oceanus 5 Motor (OCW600TDA-1AV). Now that I actually own one, however, I can finally give you a proper review.The biggest difference in functionality between the Oceanus and the Casio G-Shock Giez is the fact that the Giez is not a worldwide atomic watch. In other words, the Giez 1000BJ only receives atomic time signals in Japan and the US �� not in the UK and Germany like the Oceanus.There are a few more obvious differences, as well. The style of the Giez is pure G-Shock with ion-plated black metal clad in durable black rubber. It's a very functional looking watch, and with the white hands over the black face, it's quite legible, as well. Casio muted the usual G-Shock promotion with the bezel lettering simply inset rather than painted; the result is a much more restrained look than your average G-shock.Personally, I'm a big fan of tough analog watches, and I was really looking forward to this one. Not only does it have the legendary toughness of the Casio G-Shock family, but it's solar, atomic, and it even manages to pack in five motors. Shock-proofing motors is a lot harder than it sounds, and this watch represents an impressive technical achievement for Casio.After wearing the Casio G-Shock Giez for some time, I'm still pretty fond of it. It's not my favorite day-to-day timepiece, but it's durable and legible as advertised. My short list of issues include:Bad lume and no lighting make it pretty much unusable after dark.The subdials are very cool, but can be difficult to read precisely. The stopwatch is tricky, which is a problem for me since I use it to cook with.Complicated operation. We've covered this issue in other Oceanus reviews �� these watches take some getting used to.On the plus side, it's a fantastic looking watch, super tough, very comfortable on the wrist, syncs easily (at least from from San Diego where I live), and is an excellent watch for times when you want a functional and attractive beater.View the Casio Giez 1000BJ Photo Gallery.By Paul Hubbard

One man's quest to cope with young children has seen him turn back to the watch market following years of using a mobile phone to do the job of telling the time.Scott Stein, the senior associate editor of technology resource Cnet, explained that now that his young baby is firmly strapped to his front as he walks to work, a watch seemed like the right idea - one which he definitely believed was true following an investment in Casio watches.Buying the classic Casio A158W, Mr Stein commented on the ongoing stylishness of the design, which he believes is still firmly anchored in the 80s.He explains that its "retro classic appeal" carries over to much of its current range - fashion which he believes to be resurgent and hugely attractive to even the most passive buyers in the market.However, people ought to be careful when buying their watch and should invest in one from a shop with a good reputation, following the seizure of 3,000 counterfeit Casio watches by the company and the Department of Economic Development in the UAE.
