So the technology is not the problem, casio quality is the culprit Bought the PRG50 for sailing as it is light weight and got so many features, my Citizen is the Stars&Stripes, nice but very heavy henry PRG50 after 2 years no more charging, watch was bought in Europe but <i am in <far East now, no warranty claims, no repair possible, does not charge at all. 4 Ciitizen Eco Drives work without any problems (2 for me, 2 for my wife, each a sports model for everyday and a more formal one ;-))) my oldest is several years old, bought it just when they came out.

I'm going to edit the article slightly as it's a little unfair to Casio. I reckon I just got a duff one. I’m going to edit the article slightly as it’s a little unfair to Casio.
