    Continuing my revival of solar models that had been sitting in dark boxes:

    GW-002KA.

    WRUW - May 2019

    Later on Monday:

    It was touch and go, but I think this Raysman has also come back to life. Not bad for a watch that is roughly 20 years old. It is not clear, though, how long it will continue to run when it is out of the light.

    I have never attempted to replace a solar cell, much less one in a Raysman. I don’t think I even know anyone who has.






    Going today with another solar/atomic G recently revived and put back into (limited) rotation. MT-G 900. Casio eventually upgraded this model to the MTG-M900 — making it multi-band and replacing the silly “time memo” function with a countdown timer.

    I like the solid feeling of this model, and the nice big, relatively clean display. Good for aging eyes.

    Dont worry, there is no need to change the solar panel.
    Its never broken.
    Just the battery cell needs to be replaced and thats not more difficult then on a regular G.
    You just have to source the rechargeable cell.
