Casio Men's Silver-Tone Analog Bracelet Watch #MTP1165A-1C


This watch is extremely well put together and very well priced. Some people put a great deal of time, money, and energy into looking for nice dress watches, but for everyone else there's this Casio. Some other reviewers have mentioned that the watch is one tone, not brushed steel but mine is, in fact, two tone metal. The outer links are a very bright, reflective steel while the inner portion of each link has a soft brushed pattern, making it less reflective but equally bright.

The important components for those looking for a dress watch are the build quality, looks, and ability to keep the time. This watch does all three - I've had no problems whatsoever with the build (the band scratches slightly over time but the watch face shows no signs of wear), the watch looks rather stunning (the four time markers on the watch make it look far more stylish and pricy than it is), and it has no trouble keeping perfect time, though only 4 time markers does make it difficult to read the precise time.

For anyone looking for a great watch - casual or business style - for themselves or as a gift, I highly recommend this one. It offers the style of a higher end dress-watch with one tenth of the price.Buy Casio Men's Silver-Tone Analog Bracelet Watch #MTP1165A-1C!

Casio Men's Casual Sport Watch (W753-1AV)


For the money, can't beat the price and quality. Date is hard to read an certain angles.
Two things I would change. One, buttons protrude a bit to the point that when you bend your wrist the mode changes. Two, the light is a regular led. Seems a bit chinsy......but for $20.....it's still an excellent buy.Buy Casio Men's Casual Sport Watch (W753-1AV)!

Casio Men's Pathfinder Triple Sensor Altimeter/Barometer/ Digital Compass Green Watch #PAG40-3V


Casio Men's Pathfinder Triple Sensor Altimeter/Barometer/ Digital Compass Green Watch #PAG40-3V is a great instrument to have if you are a seasoned camper like me. I am a trekking enthusiast and like most trekkers know how to use instruments to my advantage and find my way to the destination...To this, I must admit, I was fairly surprised by the accuracy that PAG40-3V brings to the table. This watch gives fairly accurate readings for altitude, temperature, direction, atmospheric pressure etc. I read some negative reviews about people not being able to get accurate readings...I respectfully disagree. I have tested altimeter, barometer, thermometer and compass (which, I believe, are the four chief selling points of the watch) and, as I already said, the readings showed tolerably least or most of the times no deviation from actuals. All in all, a great piece.

One more thing. I tried Suunto (almost settled for X-Lander) and Timex offering similar features before I bought this. I was surprised to see that compared to Suunto (which is relatively expensive) this watch offered same performance in lesser price. I will miss "Tough Solar", but it doesn't hold me back from declaring pride in my new possession.

I plan to use this watch for Trekking in Laddakh towards the end of this year. This will be the litmus test and I am fairly confident (on the basis of extensive lab testing I already performed to see how good this piece of work will hold when I am out there) it'll rise to meet my expectations with flying colors.Buy Casio Men's Pathfinder Triple Sensor Altimeter/Barometer/ Digital Compass Green Watch #PAG40-3V!
