Casio PAW1300-1V

I have owned two Suunto Vector and two Casio Pathfinder watches. I bought this watch primarily for the added watch features and the slim profile. I was not disappointed at all and would say I prefer this watch over all the other compass watches I have owned. Clean, easy to read, accurate and useful, it is all that it claimed to be. Worth every penny so far. More as I use it in the woods. The two best features are the small size and the mineral glass face.

This watch is perfect for geeky type like me. Went on vacation in Disney World Florida right before Hurricane Gustav so I wore the watch. It was fun watching the barometer graph and seeing a low front and then a high front move in and out, and playing with the compass which was acurate for non-professional uses. This watch has it all - world time, count down egg timer, stop watch, compass, barometer & skin temp, altimeter, night light, solar charge, auto setting at 12 AM every night from radio transmissions from Ft. Collins, CO, even from Orlando but need to leave near window. It even fits my wrist perfectly due to hinges at 12:00 and 6:00 that break and form fits the watch band around my wrist. Watch face diameter is a bit big but I like big watches, and not too thick. This model is a big improvement over the massive, bulky Pathfinder PAG40 which I also own; probably 1/3 reduction in watch case volume. Not too heavy on the wrist either. Not many negatives: memory kind of pointless, top line on digital display a wee bit small for my forty-something eyes to read but just at borderline, alarm could be a wee bit louder. Unlike other reviewers, I thought the band was fine and matched style and quality of watch. No regrets for buying this watch sight unseen from Amazon. If and when it breaks, won't hesitate to buy another one. Kudos to Casio.

This the second Casio Pathfinder solar atomic I have purchased. The first worker beautifully, but was too big for daily wear. Great for bike rides in the Rockies or for hikes. For daily, non dress, I wore a Casio G-shock. What I wanted was a daily watch that had all the pathfinder features but was not huge. This watch is not small, but works for every day wear. What is not to like, perfect time, never needs a battery, tons of features, looks good and is essentially bullet proof. Have had other brands of altimeter watches, they were either huge or use of the features killed the battery in a short time.

There is a reason this watch is called the Pathfinder. It is designed for the rugged outdoorsman, or just because you want to feel like one. For this reason it has amazing features and benefits.

> You don't have to replace the battery. It is solar powered.
> A watch cannot be more accurate. This watch has atomic timekeeping, so you are always on time.
> Of course it is water resistant...down to 330 feet.
> You will not lose your way again with the digital compass.
> The altimeter lets you know your altitude and the barometer alerts you to changing weather.
> Of course it has the everyday stuff...timer, stop watch and alarms.

This is a great watch even if your only trips outdoors are crossing the mall parking lot.
