As with everything else in this day and age, watches have green options too. Now first off let me put your mind at ease. I am not talking about strapping a hunk of bamboo to you arm. I am also not talking about some thing that you will have to drain your bank account just to buy one. Any one can find a Casio solar powered watch that they like and of course looks good at a good price!

Okay time to answer the big question what is a solar powered watch? Well it is a watch that can be powered in part by the sun. As with all other watches you will still need a battery, but with a Casio solar powered watch the solar charge can last for months or even years. That means you may never have to replace the battery for as long as you have the watch!

How is that being green you say? Well Americans purchase nearly 3 billion dry-cell batteries every year. Household batteries contribute many potentially hazardous compounds to the municipal solid waste stream, including zinc, lead, nickel, alkalines, manganese, cadmium, silver, and mercury. If you never have to replace the battery then you can reduce the hazardous compounds that go into our landfills and that helps this beautiful planet we call home!

By now I am sure you have noticed that I keep talking about Casio brand solar powered watches and that is for good reason. You see Casio makes a huge line of solar powered watches and I know the most about them. If you like another brand by all means get one of their watches. I am not saying you must get a Casio solar powered watch. I am just trying to help you see something that you might otherwise not have.

To help you understand why I picked Casio let me tell you more about the company. The late Kashio Tadao, founded the company in June of 1957. But Casio didn't get into watches till the 1970's. They launched their first watch in 1974 and the CASIOTRON, the world's first digital watch with automatic calendar was born. Since then Casio has been world leader in watches.

One thing I love about Casio is it's corporate creed. Casio's corporate creed is "creativity and contribution." It expresses the company's commitment to contributing to society by offering the kind of original, useful products that only Casio can.

"Products with innovative functions assist people in their daily lives and keep society moving forward. They also bring joy to people and help to create new culture. When even a single new product is widely adopted, whole new markets develop, and this in turn fosters growth in related industries. This is the story of Casio's contribution to society-innovative products enhancing people's lives." That is right off their website and in their own words.
