QUOTE(Everdying @ Aug 6 2017, 07:37 PM) i believe CHG means charge... tho i dunno why would a stop watch take anymore battery power than a timer. obviously best is to go back to marco service center and ask them. Thanks for the reply. CHG is charge, but it drains the battery so fast in Stop Watch Mode... After it appears, I will leave it under the sun for 2 days... until I need to use the Stop Watch mode again. I dived with this watch before, so my sister was saying maybe something spoiled already inside.

It was my everyday watch until I get myself the Pro-Trek this year. I wanted to changed the Batt, the shop guy told me very expensive... Suggest I should try and charge it first. That's what I did, and somehow still cannot. I use Timer for 40 minutes. Then tried stop watch for 40 minutes (Charge in between).... still die. Scare the hell out of me when the whole screen went blank.

It looks exactly like a 5600 on wrist  the premium price is only for the screw back only You can get quite a handful of good stuffs if you hunt around the suburb's used item shops, for brand new Gs you can go to the camera shops that offers tax free for tourist and you might score some good deals as well
