Casio watches suck. You can only replace the battery 1 time before you destroy all that stuff inside trying to replace it.  After that the watch becomes no more waterproof and the contact between battery and watch becomes loose.

Weird I had my GBD-200 apart at least a dozen times, just spent the whole day at a water park, still ticking.  Maybe I was at a waterpark with no water.  Or maybe you broke your watch.

I was wearing my Casio watch the other day and was thinking how great it would be if it had Bluetooth capability, and now they're rolling one out?! 😳 Freaky. But I wanted my Casio watch to be able to control media playback on my phone and check message notifications, not sync alarms and stopwatches.. hopefully someone will find a way to jailbreak them and unlock better functionality.
