I love this watch. It is a massive piece on my wrist, and easily readable (which is why I put away my expensive swiss time piece in favor of the digital readout of the Casio). What you need to ask yourself here, is what exactly are you paying for. The Temp, Barometer, Atimeter and Compass are additional features on this WATCH. They are all estimate readouts, taken using changing atmoshperic pressure and other conditions. The manual explains all of this, and tells you NOT to depend on these features for professional acute measurements. They are approximations. Remember this. The WATCH you are purchasing here, is absolutely accurate…to within +/-20 seconds a month WITHOUT receiving a signal from the Atomic Clock. You should get reception at least once out of 6 opportunities a day, which makes the watch totally accurate (are you ready?) to within ONE second every 3000 years! Now that is accuracy! You’re buying a watch…not a compass, or a barometer or thermometer. A very, very accurate watch that can also give you a close approximation on several atmospheric measurements, and also an altimeter estimation according to air pressure. I love this watch. Thing of beauty. Well worth the money if you want a good-looking and accurate time piece. ALSO (and this is a big also, if you are used to dealing with digital watches), the ease of operation and programming on this watch are phenomenal. There are no sub-menus and double and triple clicks to program this beast. Because of the number of buttons, you can push one to leave the time mode…another to find the mode you wish to adjust…two more to eather go up or down making the adjustment, and then simply press the time mode button again to return to the …(you guessed it) time mode. VERY VERY easy. The easiest digital watch I have ever had. And we all know how tough Casio’s are. I think you will really like this watch, as much as I do.
I purchased this watch recently and really love it. However, I have one thing to complain, which is the wristband that are shipped with the unit. Amazon’s description states “Resin Band”, but the actual watch only came with the cloth options. I have to spent another $50 just to order the “Resin” replacement.
What's your say ?
