Great review I just bought the Casio Tide Graph Moon Phase 10-Year Battery Men's Sports Watch w/LED Illuminator Model: WS1300H-1AV Black from Amazon for 20.00. Great watch.. Basically the same watch however the price of the Casio GW 7900 at well over 100.00 on Amazon, I personally think people are paying for the G-Shock name on the bezel...same watch if you ask me but the WS1300H doesn't have the round seconds lcd at the right.

Hi Watch Geek, great video! When I set the high tide to the first high tide in my local area (from looking at tide times on google for my area), it works great for a couple of days but then I notice it slipping out of sync and I checked it again after a few days and it was 2 hours out of sync so how do I keep it in sync?

+whatsonthewrist their new smart watch comes with a color display so the options are there bug when it comes to regular LCD's they did experiment with multicolored ones where you were able to change the color of the complete display, I have one, but it would have been cooler if they used it like you said

I bought one of these several years ago, and I really don't like it. The moon phase window is so tiny you can't see it, and that second hand sub-dial--which is actually around how big the moon window should be, is a pretty much useless feature. The watch I wanted to buy was the awesome Casio module 3206--ABC, solar-powered, tides, moon, very readable... For some idiotic reason Casio quit making it, and the liquid crystal on two that I've owned failed after a few years of use and there were blank spots in the display. Great watch though.

Sorry maybe I missed it, or I'm too dumb to understand how accurate this is lol. Do you set exactly when it's high or low? How is it telling you the tide with no location data. I just want a watch I can accurately set. I got the stupid Nixon Base Tide that just gives a SUPER rough estimate at the tides. Worthless for spearfishing. I know other Nixons you enter pre-set beaches around the world... But does this just sync with the moon phase for more accurate readings? (for example including spring tide).

Is there a way to replace the month number by a three digit name, in the date-month complication? Like for example in the video the month is 6, so there's a way that the watches displays a "jun" instead of "6" to represent the month of june? I have difficulty with numbers and remembering which number is each month, I also have difficulty with 24 hour time after midday, like 13 to 24 hours, I can't see the time quickly but need to think for a time before realizing which number is each hour, so I prefer 12 hour time with AM and PM 😅

Is the "full moon" supposed to a blank black dot, or is it supposed to be colored in all the way cause it's a negative screen? I have no clue how to figure out what direction the MOON is "MOVING" by looking at it. God help me when the apocalypse comes. I'm lucky I got the fuckin time set.

I have a problem, see if an expert can help me. I have my GW-7900 several years ago and it was working perfectly but one day the screen got stuck. It didn't help me to press all the buttons, leave it in the dark for a few days... so I decided to open it and take out what is properly the clock and... It started to work, but without realizing it, a very small spring of a total of 3 springs, came out of the hole where it was embedded. The problem is that there are several holes where it could go and I do not know in which one, anyone knows for sure where it goes?
