If you disable a lot of features (mainly GPS and BT, but activity tracking also eats a lot) and you spend plenty of time outside and it is really sunny, then, yes, you can run it indefinitely without charging.
Practically: not so much. Yes, it added some charge, but it was next to nothing.
Please don't get me wrong: it is amazing piece of hardware and battery lasts for almost 1 month. But solar feature simply not worth extra.
