After a few months, both the bezel and the plastic case back start to come off the watch case, allowing dust and moisture to get into the gaps. In my opinion, the watch is worth at most 100 PLN.

MILITARY is a premium dealer of Casio.
Casio is a Japanese brand founded in 1946, known worldwide as one of the leaders in consumer electronics. A breakthrough moment in the company's history was the launch of the G-Shock series in the 1980s, which gained cult status thanks to its exceptional resistance to shocks, water, and extreme environmental conditions. Casio is constantly developing its technologies, introducing features such as Tough Solar - a solar power system - and Wave Ceptor - time synchronization using radio waves, which ensures precision and reliability. The brand's watches are popular among both professionals and users looking for durable solutions for everyday use and outdoor activities. The first G-Shock model – DW-5000C, designed by engineer Kikuo Ibe in 1983, passed a drop test from the tenth floor and continued to function flawlessly, which became the foundation of the series' legend. Today, Casio is synonymous with innovation, reliability, and timeless design.

Model made with attention to detail, ideal for people who do not need a smartwatch connection. The black colour tends slightly towards graphite, and the simple design has no prominent decorations. A major advantage is the solid metal clasp. The watch is equipped, among others, with an alarm indicator, battery level and green dial illumination. Since it works on a solar panel, it should be regularly exposed to the sun or worn uncovered. So far it works perfectly. The price reflects the quality. This is a timepiece for many years.
