My atomic solar G-Shock quit charging. It's about 5 years old so I think the battery (capacitor?) quit charging. Do I have to throw it away or can it be serviced? TIA

Look around on the G Shock fora over at WUS, seems to be conflicting stories on if it can be replaced or not

Probably not worth the trouble on a $90 watch.

When mine died last year I just tossed it. Had mine for about 5 years and only spent $75 so figured I got my monies worth.
