The Casio Waveceptor is seriously one of the coolest watches I've ever laid eyes on. Is is sleek and sophisticated, but it could easily be worn with shorts and a t-shirt or a shirt and tie. Are you ready for the part that I think is coolest? Your hubby or dad will never have to worry about setting his watch to the exact time again, or worry about adjusting his watch for Daylight Saving Time changes. The Waveceptor receives the official US government time several times a day via a time calibration signal from the atomic transmitter in Ft. Collins, CO. What?!?! That's so cool! This would actually be really great for hubby because he is a radio engineer, and he always has to call Colorado for the precise time to make sure that the show goes on the air at the right time, commercials are aired properly, etc.
Hubby's last watch had a little square for the date of the month, and the first time I adjusted it my fingers almost fell off from turning the dial (ok, that was a little dramatic, but they were definitely red afterwards...). Well, my fingers are much happier knowing that the Waveceptor has a perpetual clock -- so it always knows what day of the month it is -- not even a leap year can confuse it. This is one smart watch!
A few other features of this watch: it has capability for 3 separate alarms (time to call your wife, time to bring your wife some flowers, time to tell your wife how much you love her), a LED light with afterglow, and it is water resistant for up to 100 meters, (that's 328 feet for those of us who aren't so great with the metric system).
This watch is the next hottest thing -- it's brand new and not even available in Casio's online store just yet. However, if you aren't the winner, fear not: they are available for purchase in Kohl's stores around the country.

MY HUB DESERVES TO WIN CAUSE IM FRIGGIN SICK OF HIM ASKING ME WHAT TIME IT IS :(
My husband deserves this watch, but he has so many already, I think I would nominate my son-in-law to get this watch. He has been a phenomenal father to my 2 granddaughters.
My man deserves this because he needs a watch so he will not be late for the movies anymore!
Here's why he deserves a new watch: he's out mowing the huge lawn before the rains begin (again!) while I'm inside just sitting here at the computer!
Well forget about the old "tic-toc" because is "toc" makes me "tic"; many thanks SW
My husband loves Casio watches. We haven't bought a father's day gift in years. He always thinks of others before himself. I have multiple sclerosis and last year he wanted MY toenails painted. I really want to do something nice for him and this would be perfect. It would truly be a blessing.
The penultimate watch for the penultimate man.
My husband deserves to win this because he's a great husband,a great father,and a great granddad. He doesn't own a watch at this time so I hope we win! ty 4 this great contest! casio rocks!:)
I'm entering this for my brother who is putting me up for the summer since my house burnt to the ground. How generous is that!

My husband.. he just spent the last couple of days moving all of our things from one house to another. I'm pregnant and can't help much. He can't find his watch and that is always something he wears.
My Dad Deserves This Watch Because He Works Hard To Support His Family.

My husband deserves this watch because he is a great father, husband, & coach.
My husband both needs and deserves a new watch. He is a great father and a loving husband. Even when his job has kept him away from us for extended periods of time, he has always made the extra effort to stay in touch and show us he cares via phone calls and emails. This would be a wonderful surprise for him.
Thanks!

Oh...I would so love to win this for my son who just became a Father this past October and is celebrating his first Father's Day. Although he already has the most beautiful gift in the world. A baby girl.
My husband broke his watch a month ago and really needs a new one! Thanks for the giveaway!
My husband, father of my child, deserves this watch because I can't afford to get him all of the nice things he deserves. zarahf @hotmail.com
because he's a very nice guy and i think he deserves something like this wether i win it or buy it for him.I think that he deserves this and more.
My SO is an absolute watch freak. He would love this to bits.
My husband deserves to win this he works so hard for his family to make every thing special
My Dad deserves to win this! He's worked sooo hard providing for the family! I don't know what we would do w/out him!
I'm subs to your feeds too! :)
Love to win this for my son, he so deserves it as he's the one who fixes all my internet problems when I cant
My husband is a great husband and a wonderful father. He has stuck by me through thick and thin, and loves me through all of my faults. He works so hard to provide for his family and I would love to be able to give him this watch to say THANK YOU.
This dad over here deserves the watch because he spends many hours at work, checking his watch to see just how much longer he has before he can close up shop and hit the road for the long commute home. Poor guy. I want to make sure he has something that can tell him up to the exact second when quittin' time has arrived. :-)
My Dad is the best. I would love this for him. He is always there for us.
He does so much for everyone else and asks so little for himself. He has taken care of me thae last 4 years as I've battled several illnesss including cancer. He never complains or feelssorry for himnself.
my father only has an old watch!

My husband is the man in my life who deserves this watch. He is constantly busy with work, classes, and all of the volunteer activities he participates in. I'm very proud of him as a husband and father, and would love for him to have a new watch :) Thanks!
I'd love to win this watch for my son-in-law. He's a terrific dad to my two granddaughters, and all summer long he spends so much time with them at the local pool. This watch would be great because it's waterproof!
My husband our family warrior.
to be honest, there is NO man in my life who deserves this. however i have a very, very close and faithful and helpful female friend who wants a watch exactly like this. she deserves it for all her support while i was in the hospital for weeks. she took great care of my home and my children and i wish I could make it up to her. this would be a start!!
My best friend stepped up to the plate to watch my daughter when I had to undergo surgery and he has been a key figure in our lives since my husband died - therefore I would like for him to have this watch
My husband hates having to reset the time. This would make it much easier on him!
He works really hard and is very caring.
I love casio
My husband is a great guy, having provided financial support for this family since the year of 1975 when we got married. His wisdom is incomparable to any other person I've ever known. He deserves this nice watch just because of who he is and what he stands for, in my opinion!
thank you
My husband derserves this watch because our sons are always taking his watches to play with.
So I will always know when its time ,time to laugh,time to love ,time to sing.... Count me in to win
cause hes awesome :)
My boyfriend is not only the primary breadwinner in our little house, but the primary cooker, cleaner, and decorator... he is multi-talented and i love him for that. Also, he wants the Bear Grylls (Survivor Man or something) watch for $5,000, but there's no way I can swing that : )
