Hi gregbrands,

If your watch is several years old, I would recommend sending it back to Casio for service and battery replacement. Contrary to what you may hear about solar-powered watches, the rechargeable batteries do not always last for 10-20 years. I've seen some go out in 2-3 years. This is a shorter lifespan than most standard lithium watch batteries.

You may have an authorized Casio service center near you also. If not, contact Casio at the following numbers:

For Repair support in USA at 1-800-706-2534 during regular business hours (currently Monday-Friday 9:00a.m. - 5:00pm EST, Saturday / Sunday 10:00 a.m. - 8:00 p.m.) For Technical support in USA at 1-800-435-7732 during regular business hours (currently Monday-Friday 9:00 a.m. - 8:00pm EST for all products, Saturday / Sunday 10:00 a.m. - 8:00 p.m)

The cost of your watch well justifies this kind of service, plus, they will assure it remains waterproof up to its specifications.

Let me know if I can help further.

Thanks, Bill

Why isn't battery recharging in sunlight?

I own the a same CASIO PRG-240 watch.I think there is no problem.Charging every solar powered watch under direct sunlight has to be made in a well lighted and ventilated area, such as balcony and never behind a window glass.Charging from LOW to FULL is a long way (see instructions).Now showing FULL and when removed after a while, MEDIUM, is normal as the battery is not really fully charged.If you use an incandescent light,place the watch at least 50-60 cm distance from it.Usually there are no great results with the incandescent light.I never use this option.
Wear your watch for a couple of days (a week for example) under sunlight as much as possible and check.If it still shows MEDIUM after a time period, may be a battery replacement will solve the problem.

With most watches, use an Exacto knife to compress the pin to remove it. Replacing the pin is more difficult.

Reset the time on a G shock GW 1500A

The least time-consuming method is to follow the instructions in the manual. Download the manual for the watch module from Casio worldwide site. The module number is a 4-digit number set inside a rectangle on the back of the watch. Usually on the periphery of the circle.

I have a Casio Shock Risist watch (GW-500A) that says "charge" on the display, that is all it shows. Does it need a new battery or what?

this watch requires no battery. It uses solar cells. my watch did this as well. to make the watch functional again my advice is to not wear the watch for one day and place it near a window that gets a lot of sun.

My Casio Gw-300 is not receiving the satelite signal to receive daylight savings time. The display is not showing the satelite dish or any bars in the receiving indicator

I'm having the same problem. It's been working fine for about 4 years and now there are no bars or the picture of the satellite. There is a little "C" or "[" next to where it should be though. Maybe that is some sort of error message? I left it in my window for three days straight to get full days of sunlight and the battery is full but still no signal. Did something happen to the atomic signal carriers? Or is my watch finally dead?

Casio G-Shock GW-300 replacement bands

I have a Casio g-shock gw-330a and now find myself again replacing the band. So far, $60 on bands. They last me two or three years. To install the band, take the band and watch to a Jeweler. My local Sears does it for me. $5 for installation; $5 for purchase shipping; $20 for band. $30 every couple of years.
This cost disturbs me.
