Casio Men's GW9100-1 G-Shock Gulfman Solar Atomic Watch Review

Casio Men's GW9100-1 G-Shock Gulfman Solar Atomic WatchI received this watch today. Thank you Amazon for fast shipping (lousy packing, but the neither watch box nor watch itself was hurt).

Perfectly comfortable. Easy instructions. Great functionality.

All-around delighted by this great looking timepiece.

I've been wearing it and playing with it since it arrived about 5 hours ago (I should have spent more time actually working...), and having gone through all the functions and settings, I have found no (ZERO) negatives.

Highest recommendations.

Update... Day 2.

I wore the watch all day yesterday and forced a synch with the atomic clock at 6:39 PM. It worked flawlessly and caught a 'L3' signal even in the hills where I live.

Last night I put it on my desk and at 12:04 this morning it re-synched automatically.

This is a truly outstanding watch. I am wearing it again this morning and probably will all weekend. BTW... this kind of watch is usually not my style. I have worn mechanical Swiss watches for years; mostly automatics. This is my 3rd G-Shock and is my favorite by leaps and bounds.

Great watch.

Update...

After a little over 2 weeks I can say that this is the best digital watch I've ever owned. It rarely leaves my wrist. I wear it to work, the gym, hiking... everywhere.

When I don't feel it necessary to put on a 'dress' watch, this is what I wear.

The buttons are easy to push. The dial is easy to read. It's incredibly functional... and great looking!

Again, the absolute highest recommendations.

Casio Men's PAG80T-7V Pathfinder Altimeter/Barometer/ Digital Compass Solar Digital Watch Review

Casio Men's PAG80T-7V Pathfinder Altimeter/Barometer/ Digital Compass Solar Digital WatchThis was purchased as a gift for a good friend.We both prefer fairly sizable timepieces, so its size had no bearing on our selection.This was intended, by me, as more of a high end "gimmick gift", rather than to be used to scale Mount Everest. However, we have found numerous and legitimate uses for this type of product. I own a Suunto "Observer", priced about $100 more, and can find no overt differences between the two.As a matter of fact, the edge may go to Casio because of the solar power.Both require that you remove them from your wrist for 10 minutes to get an accurate outdoor temperature reading.This seemed to be one of the common complaints about this device.That same very phenomenon is also clearly stated in a Suunto manual, Suunto considered to be much higher end and definitely more expensive.The Suunto and Casio manual also clearly states that the device is not to be used for flying, parachuting, or other potentially life-threatening situations that require extreme precision.We have found that both the Casio and Suunto are quite impressive, and in an emergency could possibly, repeat possibly, be used for the above activities (flying, would require an unpressurized cabin).It will certainly be an asset for the day hiker.I have seen a Suunto model on the wrist of a climber who had climbed Mount Everest (magazine picture).Is it worth the price?I think that all depends on what you want it for.We use these instruments for outdoor photography. Having an extremely accurate compass on your wrist really helps when estimating the position of the sun, the time, and other ancillary functions complete the package.I have found my Suunto, and my friend his Casio (this model), to be well worth the investment.

Perfect for rugged adventurers and weekend warriors, the solar-powered Casio Pathfinder men's titanium sport watch is loaded with a digital compass and altimeter/barometer/thermometer--perfect for both mountain trekking and cave spelunking.
