There was some sun today, and so I took another of my solar watches to blog. It also shows that I have a liking for the ana-digi Waveceptor line too!
So this watch is one of the Casio Tough Solar watches. It has a big chunky body in silvered plastic. It is also a Waveceptor model, and has world time, so it might be a multi frequency version which will auto set around the world (although the one reference I found suggests it is only compatible for the Japanese frequency of the Kyushu /Fukushima station).
It has a two hand electronic dial and a two line LCD display (with 4 digit time along the top and a tiny dot matrix below). For the modes, it has world time, a data bank (data memory 25), alarm (x3), and stopwatch. All this comes from the Casio 2741 quartz module. The back also shows that this is an illuminator model too. The stainless steel strap is designed to match with the body and has the part number S-933L.
The watch originally came out sometime around 2002/03, but this model was discontinued by 2008. The calendar in the module starts at 2000 and goes all the way to 2039. It may also be a Casio WVA-310D with a number of WVA-310DQ-2AJF.
