That 3299 must be one of the best modules Casio ever made, especially in terms of price/performance. My resin World Time is also somewhere between -0.5 and -1 seconds per month and I paid 18€ for that thing.

The AE1000 is an underrated little joy. For nearly 5 years it was my only usable watch, and ironically if I hadn't misplaced it in my own house I wouldn't have gotten into watches by needing a new one lol. Not as easily moddable as the 1200 though. sadly

I have hesitated between AE-1000 and AE-1100, but ended with AE-1000 because of one review of WatchGeek and the movie "Mine". All in all, the watch has an excellent package of functions and interesting face (reminds me a robot with one rectangular eye; one round eye and a big smile showing the time and the other things) for not a lot of money. The strap is indeed a bit hard and less supple, compared to other CASIOSs I have, but it is comfortable enough - at least for me. The lack of solar charging and multiband (MB) functionalities are not concerns. In my location MB does not work, and solar charging of the battery requires an additional care - regular exposure to light, tracking of power indicator of the battery (below some point - damages the battery - after all, it is a rechargeable battery similar to these ones of laptops, phones and so on stuff). As is mentioned often in the reviews - everyone should to have a G-Shock in their collection (DW-5600). In my opinion, everyone should to have АЕ Casio in addition, in order to complement (if it is required) the functionality of DW-5600 for not a lot of money.
