Casio Men’s PAG80-1V Pathfinder Altimeter/Barometer/ Digital Compass Solar Digital Watch
I bought the watch because I needed a sport type watch that I could wear while doing outdoor activities like hiking, golf, etc. What attracted me to the watch were the features like the compass, thermometer, altimeter, solar powered, etc. Not sure I really needed those features on a regular basis, but I like gadgets, so I bought the watch. All of the features work as advertised and from that perspective, I’m satisfied with the watch. Since it’s only been a little over a month and I don’t wear it every day, I can’t say how durable it is. The one negative on the watch is it’s size. This thing is diproportionately large on my wrist. If you like big face watches, you’ll like this one. The photo on Amazon shows the watch on a stand alone basis and not on someone’s wrist. Had that been available, I likely wouldn’t have purchased it. In fact, I intended to return it once I saw how big it was, but forgot, so I’m keeping it. It takes some getting used to size wise, but I don’t wear it every day so it’s not the end of the world.

I bought the watch thru Amazon and am happy with it, it works as described. The seller was awesome, he or she got it shipped here to Iraq very fast, thanks.

This is the second Pathfinder I have purchased. The first was the Sea Pathfinder and it has worked flawelessly for 4 years. I finally managed to knock off the corner of the case hitting it against a steel rail. Rather than sending it back to get a new case I opted to get the newer version of the Pathfinder with solar power. I did experience some problem in getting the batteries replaced in my original watch while I was travelling in Melbourne, Australia (Only one jeweler in town had a water pressure tester … since I use the watch in the ocean a lot, water resistance is a must.) The new Pathfinder has held it’s charge well (never fallen below MAX) and I have worn it with and without a suit jacket. The barometer and the altimeter measure air pressure and are not corrected for sea level. What you see is what you get. Bear in mind that you can correct the barometer to reflect sea level reading however that will distort the altimeter. The important part of the barometer is tencency up or down. Actual meaurements don’t tell a lot … only movement. Likewise it is important to set a reference altimeter reading when using the watch for hiking purposes. Using a georef map set the reference altitude in the watch at the beginning of the hike and then you will be fine. Remember that changing weather conditions are usually accompanied by changing air pressure so if you are hiking up hill and the pressure is falling due to the weather also you will receive a false high altitude reading. If exact altitude is important buy a GPS receiver and use it in conjunction with a georef map for more exact readings. The compass and all the time functions seem to work as advertised. I wish that the alarm was louder; but then I’ve never found a watch that had a really loud alarm other than a big old windup I purchased in Switerland 30 years ago.
