Casio make a wide range of solar watches for men and women, boys and girls. They come with analogue, digital and combination displays. Many of them are specifically designed for active pursuits like hiking, mountain climbing, flying and diving. As well as being solar powered these watches include many specialist features like mud resistance in addition to deep water resistance.
They measure many variables in addition to the time, like altitude, barometric pressure, temperature and have a built in electronic compass.
Which features are included will depend on which model you buy, but features like the world time in numerous time zones, stop watch, multiple alarms and incredible shock resistance are pretty much standard in all solar powered models.
The watches are powered by the sun and collect their energy from solar cells built into the watch face. The cells are so seamlessly built into the design that you will not even notice them. That solar power is then stored in rechargeable batteries, in most cases, however some Casio solar watches store their energy in a capacitor, so that you will never need to change a battery.
The solar storage cells last a very long time and the watches have built in power saving options to ensure that they will run for a very long time without a light source once they are charged. They will actually run for 20 months if left in the dark after a full charge, so there is no need to wear your specialist watch everyday.
Casio solar watches can be charged in low light conditions, like under cloudy skies or fluorescent lighting. But you really do not have to worry about re-charging; in most cases the watch will remain charged as long as you wear it normally in daylight conditions.
Discarded battery cells make quite a contribution to the pollution of the planet. Once they are put into the landfill they can release numerous poisonous substances into the soil and any water source close by. These poisons include zinc, silver, mercury, nickel, lead, manganese, cadmium and alkalines. So wearing a solar powered watch can be a small contribution to cleaning up the earth. Not to mention reducing the cost of running your watch and all of its additional features.
Solar power is not limited to Casio's specialist watches; it is also used in the stylish EDIFICE range for men and Sheen range for women. Both of these ranges have great looks that can be worn as daily business wear or for any special occasion where looking stylish is important. EDIFICE and Sheen watches can be bought in matching pairs, so that couples can sport a similar style.
There is such a wide variety, of styles, functionality and colours amongst Casio's range of solar watches that there is absolutely one for everyone and in many cases more than one. Casio watches have become collector's items, with many enthusiasts around the world. Some models have had limited releases and become very valuable individual pieces.
So check out the range, either on line or in a local store and I am sure you will find a solar watch that is just right for you.
