A reconfigured duplex LCD layout provides optimal upper & lower LCD layout for information at-a-glance when you're on the go. In addition to numerical and trend graph data, unique arrow icons help to indicate characteristic barometric pressure patterns. 200 meter water resistance has also been employed to ensure strong water resistance for river trekking & rafting where one would encounter strong water pressure. The addition of tide & moon graph/data provides convenient information for sea kayaking and fishing. Black resin band digital watch with neutral face. Accuracy: +/- 15 seconds per month (with no signal calibration)

Casio

With the launch of its first watch in November 1974, Casio entered the wristwatch market at a time when the watch industry had just discovered digital technology. As a company with cutting-edge electronic technology developed for pocket calculators, Casio entered this field confident that it could develop timepieces that would lead the market.

Today, Casio is focusing its efforts on solar-powered radio-controlled watches: the built-in solar battery eliminates the nuisance of replacing batteries, atomic timekeeping means the users never have to reset the time. Recently, Casio launched a series of Bluetooth watches that sync to the users cell phone to automatically update the time. Casio is always moving time forward.

Chargeable battery is much better than changing the batteries. Charges under lamps and indirect light from windows.

Love the watch but I cannot get it to synch with the atomic time clock

Reviewed in the United States on September 26, 2013

Verified Purchase

I have to say that I absolutely love this watch and it is the most expensive watch that I've ever owned!

Let me get into what I like..OK love about this watch. The watch is what I need. It does tide information once it is set up. The watch also does barometric pressure and gives you a graph on what is going on with the pressure. Moon phases are displayed very well with the watch.

Compass function works very well. It will not be as accurate as a stand alone compass but you can calibrate the one in the watch and even set the magnetic declination so the accuracy gets better.

The barometer can be calibrated as well. When the watch is in barometer mode, it will also get the temperature as well. The temperature is more accurate if the watch is removed from the wrist and allowed to stabilize with the surrounding air for a few minutes. Otherwise the temperature will be warmer than the air temperature because of where the sensor sits near the arm.

I haven't had the chance to check the altimeter on the watch but it measures altitude via barometric pressure somewhat similar to what a plane's altimeter does. Both need to be calibrated to the current altitude on which they are starting out and the barometric pressure so both instruments can then use the difference in atmospheric pressure to tell you your elevation.

I do know on this watch that the altimeter does use barometric pressure because I can calibrate my altimeter to the current conditions and if the pressure changes, so does my altitude. Something to keep in mind.

The watch uses a solar panel inside the face of the watch to keep the watch charged which is a very nice feature. There is a display on the watch letting you know of the battery status. So you will know how much charge the battery has in it.

It also has a power save mode that can conserve battery. When this mode kicks in, the watch will look like the battery is dead but in fact, the watch has just shut off the display. Pretty cool I think.

The water resistance of this watch is 200m. Which for my use is plenty!

Now the atomic time part. I have tried several times unsuccessfully to synch the watch to the atomic time clock where I'm at. I live on the east coast of North Carolina and I've tried in several places around my town and the next few from me and I still get a error when I try and get the watch to synch. The watch like all other watches can be set manually but I was kind of hoping to get this to work.

Other than I can't get the watch to synchronize with the atomic time clock, I love the watch and it's features. It may not be for everyone but for me, it will do very nicely!

Ultimate gadget watch

Reviewed in the United States on December 7, 2014

Verified Purchase

Ultimate gadget watch. It has everything, even things you never knew you needed! First of all, the solar power is a must...charge it in direct sunlight for a few hours, and it'll keep going. If you use the features of this watch regularly, it will drain the battery, so you'll need to put it in some strong sunlight once in a while.

If you're comparing this and a Suunto Core...I'd go with this. Well, I did. Every guy I know (military) has the Core. Heck, I had one too. For the money and the features, the ProTrek is a better value...and you won't look like every other staff officer, XO, or CC.

Atomic timekeeping is spot-on. Updates every night, or manually if you want to. Dead accurate, and you'll never have to set the time again.

Tide graph is fairly accurate, but you may want to bounce it off a known tide chart for your area. However, once you calibrate it, it's spot-on. If you live on the coast, and like to know when high/low tides are...cause your spouse likes to go collecting stuff on the beach, and always wants to know when low tide will be, on different days, and different times...then you'll love this feature. Same for the moon phase.

Timer, alarms, stopwatch...all work as you'd expect, and are no different than any other Casio or G Shock.

Altimeter, barometer, and compass all work as advertised...although you'll definitely want to calibrate them to your area (altitude) before you start using them. Also know that temperature will vary if you take a reading while wearing it. You can program an off-set though.

World time is a nice, easy to use feature...especially if you're deployed, or travel frequently, or communicate with other time zones a lot.

Strap and wear are extremely comfortable. It's a big watch, but incredibly light and comfortable to wear. It's lighter than watches that are half the size and only have half the features.

The EL backlight is bright, and easy to read. No issues.

Waterproof to 20 ATM. But seriously, if you're going down 600 feet or more, you should have a dive watch anyway.

This will be the most accurate watch you own...that you never have to set...or change the battery on. Ever. I'm surprised you haven't clicked the "purchase" button yet.

Awesome! Very useful. Expensive

Reviewed in Canada on September 11, 2021

Great watch, not sure if worth all that money but very useful and accurate, dial is kind of small hard to read except in daylight. Had fun predicting the bad weather, compass and altitude. Received Atomic update from Colorado all the way up in Northern Ontario. Easy to use except for tides...booklet is like a mini bible long confusing boring and tiny letters. Night light is adequate, recharges easily in normal wear outside and saves energy in the dark. Auto light feature when brought up to your face in the dark is cool and useful.

Superb Watch - Revised Edition

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 17, 2022

Verified Purchase

This is a revised edition of a watch I bought over 10 years ago, and still love and use. The new watch still has the same great features, including a switchable Barometer graph on the main display, so you can track the weather if going out. It's Waterproof, Solar and has Radio time updates amongst other features. It has a slightly sleeker design of the case and strap, and the finish is black. This makes it very smart and attractive to wear and the build quality has improved. I will use my new watch for best (Smart Casual), and will use my old one for general use like swimming and every day use. I've used Casio functional watches for many years and they are very reliable and not expensive over time. The newer ranges coming through are incorporating the same and improved functionality, with Casual Fashion and Formal Dress models. Watches can be cleaned now by gentle Ultrasonic cleaning, cheaply, at home or the repairers - brings up an older watch like new! Very pleased with the updated version - will add to my collection.
