This watch packs a LOT into a small space, while still being quite easy to read and use. The little graph in the circle shows the barometric pressure trend for the last 24 hours, and it's fairly accurate as far as predicting changing weather conditions (as accurate as any barometer will be, anyway).
Pros:
- Excellent display, crisp and clear. Great use of space, as it presents a lot of info without looking too cluttered.
- Current time is shown in all modes.
- Barometer graph always visible in timekeeping mode (ie. you don't have to press a button to show the graph).
- Solar powered (no need to stress about using the backlight, setting lots of alarms, etc - the watch will recharge itself).
Cons: (in my opinion)
- Temperature reading is only useful when the watch is left off the wrist (this problem plagues ALL G-Shocks with a temp sensor, not just this Riseman).
- No quick-return to time mode, after setting an alarm or using the stopwatch -- you have to scroll through the remaining modes to get to the time. For some reason this frustrates me a lot.
- Feels less durable than many other G-Shocks. I am a big fan of the classic 5600e, and also the Mudman models. Compared to a Mudman, this thing is almost fragile ;-)
As I said above, this watch packs a LOT of nifty little features inside it. For example - 5 alarms, "hotswapping" a second time zone on the main display (good for travellers), full auto backlight (tilt your wrist in the dark and it will light up), altimeter (useless to me, but one of those "cool to have anyway" features), and a superb layout which not only looks techy and cool, it also shows all of this on the same screen: barometer graph, day of the week, year, day and month, time, and little indicators for alarm/mute/power saving mode/auto-el/snooze - you get the idea.
I believe this Riseman will be on sale for many years to come, because it really has a feature-set that is different from most other G-Shocks. You have to pay a little more for this one, but you are getting the extra features that the more basic G-Shocks don't have (solar, altimeter, barometer, temperature) -- whether you need them, however, is up to you.
[Note - This is the non-atomic version of the Riseman, you will find many more reviews from other people under the atomic version. I bought this version because I'm in Australia and I don't think I would receive atomic signals anyway.]

I love Casio watches specially the GsHOCK they are durable-nice designs and battery life last long..most of my watches are CASIO and im using this brand since 1985 and owned almost 10 models. About the RISEMAN I like the design and d features like Barometer,Thermo,Altmeter, is amazing, and its durable its GSHOcK-resistant, The sensors are not 100% accurate but at least it can give you result +5/-5 difference. Love the watch,Recommended
