 "Not the best Casio watch I've ever had." 2009-12-25
By Mr. Dip (Middle of Nowhere (i.e. the best part of Nowhere))
I needed a basic watch for quick switching to multiple time zones while traveling overseas. This one does the job well with very simple one-button functionality. The band is cheap plastic. The back-light is the worst I've seen from all the Casio watches I've owned. Not only is it weak, it stays on for less than 2 seconds, even if I hold down the light button. [BTW, best backlights can be found in Timex's Expedition watches. Better than some expensive brands.]



Pros:

-Light weight. Good for wearing for longer periods of time.

-Best feature is ease of use.

-Easy one-button switching to different modes.



Cons:

-Band is plastic.

-Back-lighting is very weak.

-Back-lighting is way too quick.

 "Looks great 'til it scratches" 2009-12-15
By Brian L. Howard (Florence, SC)
Like many other reviewers have said, this is a stylish and functional watch with a significant weakness. I purchased this in 2007, and it continues to run well. I needed a watch that was good for casual office wear and could also keep time at the gym or when jogging. Within a week of office/errand wear it had scratches on the crystal. I now use it as a weekend/gym watch because it doesn't look nice enough to wear to the office. I would not purchase this watch again. I'd by a cheap-o digital from the Big Box store for exercising and a nicer analog watch that wouldn't scratch so easily for those times I need a black watch.

 "The watch I like to watch" 2009-12-15
By dk (Long Beach, CA)
Got this watch urgently one night when I noticed previous watch that I wore everywhere, even when swimming, fogged up one night after swimming indicating a leak after a couple of years of good use (different design - also a Casio). The design on this watch was a little different and very functional with both analogue and digital displays. It is very inexpensive, so I figured I would have nothing to lose. I am really enjoying the watch. A little quirky to set up (it is delivered in Tokyo time so you have to adjust based on the largest major city which represents your time zone ---easy but different). I wish the display were a little brighter but it is sufficient. The blue glow that happens when you push the upper right button shows off the digital display well in a dark room. Have gotten unsolicited compliments on the watch by friends and colleagues. It is comfortable as well. The digital second hand animated circle is cool yet functional. All in all I am very very happy with this purchase. No leaks yet. Performs well underwater and on land.

 "Good Quality" 2009-12-12
By Ed Knutson-smisek
One point that I like about this watch is that it is nice having both the time in analog and digital. The backlight also does a good job of illuminating the time.

The only faults I noticed are that the face scratches more easily than I would like, and the watch is a bit thick.

But overall I would say this is a good buy.

 "CHEAPLY MADE" 2009-12-09
By N. K. Hersh (CA USA)
Great for first few days...then the face developed severe scratching, making this watch unusable within a few weeks!! One of the most disappointing purchases I've recently made.

Buy Low Price From Here Now
Set a course for adventure every day you wear this solar-powered Casio Pathfinder Triple Sensor men's digital watch (model PAG80-1V), which includes a built-in digital compass, altimeter, barometer, and thermometer. This extra-large, round watch features large function buttons that are easily accessible even when wearing gloves. Both the case and strap are made from durable resin. The digital compass displays 16 directions and has a 5-set memory capacity that captures direction, month, date, and measurements time data. The altimeter measures up to 32,800 feet (10,000 meters) in 20-foot (5-meter) increments, and it can store 50 sets of altitude memory with date and temperature. It also provides a target altitude alarm and graphing capability for target and altitude tendency.

Because it's solar-powered--charging in either sunlight or indoor light--you'll never have to deal with changing the battery. Light enters the watch through the sapphire crystal and dial, and hits a solar cell beneath the dial. Current is created and stored in the battery. The duplex LCD provides two liquid crystal panels, enabling you to select from among different display patterns.

It offers a 1/100-second stopwatch with a 60-minute measuring capacity and elapsed time, split time, and 1st/2nd place time modes. It also includes a yacht timer, which is used to time the start of regattas. The countdown period can be set from 1 to 10 minutes. An acoustic signal is emitted after each minute has elapsed and then once a second for the last ten seconds. Other timekeeping functions include a daily alarm, optional hourly time signal, and 12/24-hour formats. Other features include a comfortable resin strap, scratch-resistant mineral crystal, AfterGlow LED electro-luminescent backlight, and water resistance to 100 meters (330 feet).

 "Handy watch for backpackers" 2009-10-26
By Ernest B. Engman (Maryville, TN)
I backpack in the east where you cannot always see the sun or surrounding terrain from either tree cover or clouds/rain. I've found the functions on this watch to be helpful when backpacking.



Navigation: The compass is good for a quick orientation of the map or general heading determination, but it isn't accurate enough for orienteering. The altimeter is good checking elevation against known elevations during climb and descent so you can better determine your location on the trail - that said, you should be familiar with how to set the elevation to a reference point and do so as often as possible to maintain accuracy.



Weather: I've also found that the barometer can give you a heads up when there is a weather change on the way. This takes some time to learn and isn't always a perfect way to know what the weather will do, but it can help.



Battery/Solar charging: The multi signal alarms have been just loud enough to wake me up when I need to get out of the sleeping bag by a certain time. I've only had the watch a short time, so I'm interested to see how well the battery holds up over the years with re-charging. It came on a medium charge, and within a day of use was at max charge which it hasn't come down from yet despite a week of working nights.



Size: The watch is a little heavy and bulky compared to a normal watch. But compared to some of the other watches with similar functions it is very comparable.



Price: The cost of the watch almost made me not get one. I tend to go through watches every couple of years. My last watch was a Timex Ironman with digital compass that bit the dust in Iraq and had to be replaced by a cheap watch I found over there. It was my second Ironman in about 8 years. I hope that this thing is rugged enough that the cost ends up equaling out over time over what I would normally spend on multiple watches.



Overall I would recommend this watch for someone looking for similar uses.

 "GOOD TIME PIECE ONLY" 2009-10-23
By GRANDPAIRV (INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA United States)
I AM SORRY I ORDERED THIS WATCH. IT IS, BY FAR, THE WORST PURCHASE I HAVE EVER MADE FROM AMAZON....THE ONLY FEATURE THAT WORKS CORRECTLY IS THE TIME MODE AND SOMETIMES THE COMPASS. THE THERMOMETER IS WAY OFF EVEN AFTER YOU REMOVE THE WATCH FROM THE WRIST. IF LEFT ON THE WRIST, FORGET IT. THE WATCH IS VERY HARD TO READ AS THE DISPLAY IS SO DARK. YOU NEED TO TAP ON THE LIGHT IN ORDER TO DETERMINE THE TIME. I HAD INTENDED TO RETURN IT, HOWEVER I AM 80 YEARS OLD AND A WIDOWER LIVING ALONE AND CANNOT DRIVE TO A POST OFFICE TO SEND IT. SO I AM STUCK WITH IT. YOU WOULD BE BETTER OFF BUYING A $20,00 TIMEX AT WALMART THAN THIS WATCH.

 "Great" 2009-10-04
By J. Christensen (Seattle)
I bought this for my techno 11 year old. He loves it. Easy for him to understand/operate and substantial so it'll hold up. Seems very accurate compared to his fathers technichal climbing gear. Great value. No problems and it's been heavily worn.

 "casio does it right" 2009-09-24
By Laidlaw Williams (california)
this altimeter watch is the fourth i have tried (thanks to generous return policies). it is the first that combines what i think important, namely: intuitive interface, meaning all functions really work and are easy to access, easy to read, and reasonably accurate. altimeter seems quite accurate, provided it is updated at known elevation often. barometer has a useful graph, also easily viewed.

a few negatives:it is BIG! i can't imagine wearing it on my wrist-- but fortunately it is possible to remove the band, and i now have a pocket watch which is what i wanted all along. the alarm is really faint, i don't think it could possibly wake you out of a deep sleep.

 "It's Ok as a gift" 2009-12-13

 "Careful during Band Adjustment!" 2009-11-23
By A. Wylie (Fort Wayne, IN USA)
I love the watch, and just wanted to provide this review specifically for the watch band. The pins have these little retainer sleeves, which are very tiny metal sleeves that slide over the pins and help to keep them secured in the band. The person I asked to adjust it had never seen them and struggled to figure it out.(given it was at a department store, not a true jeweler that carries the Pathfinder watches). We didn't even notice those little retainers were there until the newly installed pins started falling right out. I did not find any instructions in the manual, but the watch band does have tiny arrows on the bottom side, which I can only guess is to help with pin insertion. Advice: take it to a retailer that sells the watch, or make sure you do it over a piece of fabric or something where tiny pieces can't get away.

 "Loving it!" 2009-11-01
By Ho Nam (Washington, DC United States)
This watch is everything I've been looking for in a time piece. I am a obsessive about time. The large dial makes it easy to read the time and date. I love the thermometer feature as well as the altitude and compass features especially when being outdoors on a climb. The barometric pressure lets me know if the weather will turn against me and whether or not if I should hurry to my shelter. The world time is helpful since I am a world traveler. When I'm not traveling, it helps me tune into a local time somewhere else. At work, my watch has been raved and even nicknamed the Millennium Falcon by my boss due to its sleek look. I thought at first that it would be too large for my thin wrist, but it's actually not bad and well proportioned. I would recommend this to any outdoors enthusiast. One can go diving with this watch as it has a pretty deep threshold. Now, if it could only talk, cook breakfast and give me a massage, that would be great!

 "The Worst Customer Support" 2009-10-15
By Rod D. Powell (Pasadena, CA USA)
This WATCH rates four stars. It is light and rugged. I found its functions (aside from telling time) to be helpful, and sometimes fun. However, when my wristband wore out and needed a Casio replacement I discovered, painfully, what a poor company Casio really is. Casio has only two authorized parts outlets in the U.S. (one being only 10 miles from my home, and the other being in New Jersey). I contacted the parts department, and ordered a replacement band and was told that my order would take about three weeks to fill. That was in the summer of 2005. Every month since I ordered a new wrist band I call the official parts supplier and they say the same thing, that nothing has arrived, and that Casio simply fails to honor their orders for wrist bands. I've contacted dozens of watch parts supply houses and hear the same thing.



The Bottom Line: A pretty good watch, but good luck getting parts.

 "A watch that does not work." 2009-10-05
By M. salman (UK)
The Barometer, the altimeter, the campus, the thermometer are all imprecise and do not work properly,.... What else would you ask Casio for?



The measurement were not suppose to be precise but "indicative", it is so indicative that North is read as West and after few seconds it changes to South while I was in a farming field away from any electromegnatic fields, altimeter reads -200m when the plane at about 400 meters about to land in Heathrow, meanwhile the thermometer was reading 30.2C in London while it was 14C!!!



It is a waste of money and very bulky, I would recommend to pay more and get a GPS watch.



Casio has been very successful with their products, but not with this one.

 "Nifty Watch" 2009-12-07
By Alex McNair (Corpus Christi, TX)
Hey, a lot of reviewers have already gone over every detail of this watch and I really can't add too much to them. It's controls are intuitive, which is saying a lot, given all the features. The altimeter, barometer, and temperature functions might be useful, if you take the time to set everything up properly beforehand. I've played with them, but I'm certainly not going to rely on them. The compass is quite accurate and handy. World time, atomic time synchronization, stopwatch functions, and alarms are what you would expect and like I said, easy to operate. The watch has a thin profile, not too clunky on the wrist. I actually wear it sleeping, which is a first for me. It's the ability to lord it over everyone else with truly accurate time that is the big draw. Call me the Time Nazi.

 "Awesome watch" 2009-11-13
By Michael J. Price
Had the Suunto Core before with numerous issues. This watch has more bells and whistles and it's cheaper. The band is a little long, but a few careful seconds with a scissor takes care of that. All in all a great watch.

 "Casio Men's Pathfinder PAW1300-1V" 2009-10-11
By Samuel Weiser (NY)
Nice watch I wish the date was larger, the barometer works fine and compass is great! I can't seem to get the altimeter to work correctly. The band loop is a bit snug so I have to force it in or yank it out otherwise its fine for what it is.

 "Buyer beware: Amazon tries to sell used watches as "New"." 2009-09-29
By Joel Tunnah (Brooklyn, NY)
First, the watch: the Casio PAW1300-1V is a great watch, well made, and it is worthy of 5 stars.



Now to the important point of my review.

In the last six months I have bought three watches from Amazon directly ("Ships from and sold by Amazon"): Casio DW6600C-1V and PAW1300-1V, and a Timex ironman. All three showed obvious signs of being returned items: fingerprints, missing/crumpled crystal covering, watch not showing through the box window, torn box, etc.

In the case of the PAW1300-1V, the resin band had actual mud in the grooves, and something like dried cola on it. Obviously somebody wore this watch for a weekend on a camping trip, and then sent it back to Amazon, who promptly sold it to me as a "New" watch.

Once, ok it might be a mistake - but three times in a row?? I now believe it is a policy of theirs to try to sell used watches as if they were new, and I will never, ever, buy another watch from Amazon.
