    solar

    Anyone here have one of the Solar watches and how do you like it? I would love to have one, but must save my nickles and dimes.

    Quite a few on here have the tough solar. It's a great feature and is to be recommended. What are you looking at, G-Shock or Baby-G ?

    Would prefer Baby G since I am assuming it would be smaller. Do not know if they make this in a Baby G

    There a re a few Baby-G tough solar models, less than regular G-Shocks. Why knows why, maybe a size issue.

    Anyhow have a look though the Baby-G monthly releases > http://www.g-shockzone.com/list.php?...onthly-Release and you'll see a few.

    Found gw 500a iv g shock for $88. Is that a reasonable price? It is solar atomic and I do love atomic watches. Any ladies have this watch and curious if the size bothers you.

    Can only really comment on the price, USD$88 seems about right, that's what they go for on amazon.com > http://www.amazon.com/Casio-GW500A-1...8868425&sr=8-2. Can't really comment on size compared to a Baby-G but I think it is a (relatively) smaller G-Shock.
