CASIO PAW1500T-7V Pathfinder
Casio calls this the "ultimate" watch, with all its bells and whistles I agree to some extent. This timepiece is one of the most advance watch there is. The specs are overwhelming and reading the three quarter inch manual is a must or else it'll take you while to learn all its useful features. Its a triple sensor with dedicated buttons for compass, barometer/thermometer and altimeter readings, no need to fiddle with the mode button. Except for thermometer i found all measurement functions pretty accurate. If you want to get correct temperature reading you have to remove watch from your wrist and wait for about twenty minutes before reading data. Battery is solar powered and will never need replacement, a feature that i wish other watchmaker like Sunnto, Garmin and Timex will adapt on their design. Another strong point is how the watch maintain its time accuracy, its multiband meaning it can synchronize or receive atomic time calibration signal not only in US but in 3 other atomic sites at different areas of the world namely Japan, Germany and England. If you are a diver or fisherman the added moon and tide data is really a great bonus something you will really appreciate when your out at sea or planning to sail, just specify date and voila you have current tide and moon phase in your chosen home/city. Casio created a winner on this one. IMHO it is "almost" perfect if only they can squeeze a GPS then I will agree this is the Ultimate watch.
