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!

I've had it for about a month and it is doing its job. The numerals are large and easy to read. Has all the bells and whistles I wanted. And the price was very reasonable.Buy Casio Men's Illuminator Bracelet Digital Watch #A178WA-1A!

Casio Men's World Time DataBank 10-Year-Battery Watch #AW80V-5BV


My Timex digital's battery was gone so I looked for a combination digital and analog and found this. Two alarms and Casio lets you go forward and backward on the digital programming, something Timex doesn't. It's no thicker than a Timex, not like my Movado but it's a utility watch. A little complicate to understand the programming and the first thing you do is pitch the tiny instructions and get the 8 ½ x 11 PDF file you can actually read. Casio's buttons are the same layout as Timex so that's helpful if you are a Timex fan. I have a thin wrist and the band works great for me.

The Telememo thing looks like a complete waste of time and effort but other than that it's well worth the price.
