Set a course for adventure every day you wear this Casio Pathfinder Triple Sensor men's digital watch (model PAG40B-2V), which includes a built-in digital compass, altimeter, barometer, and thermometer. 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. This large, round watch features a gray/blue leather and cloth case that's topped by a black bidirectional bezel with compass markings. 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 daily alarm, optional hourly time signal, and 12/24-hour formats.

 Most Durable Sport Watch, Ever |

| The search for the most rugged, functional watch is over. The Casio Pathfinder tops them all. I spent the first year of the war in Iraq wearing this watch without fail. The compass function came in very handy driving all over the desert. And the large face makes it easy to see. |
15 yrs. experience with triple sensor watches

My first triple sensor watch, 15 yrs. ago, was a Casio Quatro. It worked well for some 10 yrs. till it began suddenly going blank, even with a new battery. When the local jeweler (where I originally bought it) could no longer get Casio Triple Sensor watches from his distributor, and could not fix the problem, I bought a LaCrosse triple sensor watch with lower water proof rating. When 2 of these leaked in shower, hot tub and sauna situations, I finally went on line and bought this model Casio, after reading all the reviews.
I learned as much or even more by reading the lower star rating reviews, and would recommend the same to a prospective buyer.
This is by far the best triple sensor watch I've ever owned, and though I've only had it for less than a week, I would whole heartedly recommend it, or perhaps one of the similar models, to anyone looking for these features in a sport watch! The separate buttons for compass, barometer, altimeter, and light, as well as the other 2 bottons for setting the various measuring devices, makes it easy to use. The compass works well for general directions, after setting it up the bidirectional method, and is not intended for navigation purposes. The night back light lights up the numbers for easy visualization in the dark.
As far as the thick manual, if you cut off the other languages it's only 1/8" thick, and if you go on line to Casio and download the manual from their website in English, it's only 8 pages long (letter size pages) and can be easily taken on trips for reference.

For the price, you will have a hard time finding a watch with as many features. As most other watches with sensors for the different functions, even some costing over 4 times as much, it comes calibrated with "international settings" (it measures altitude based on atm pressure variations), but you can calibrate as you wish depending on the situation (for example: if you want to measure a mountain climb from the point of origin/base).
The band is little stiff at first, but eases up with time. My only negative on this specific model is that it doesn't come with a countdown timer. This function can easily be overlooked by using the chronometer or the alarm function, but it's not as convenient. I've had a very good experience with Casio, and their products are usually very reliable. Overall, highly recommended. |
Great watch

| For the price and performance hard to beat. Wist band could be made of a better material, but other than that great watch. |

| I became interested in this watch when a friend of mine paid me a visit and he was wearing the Casio Pathfinder Triple Sensor. I admired the rugged good looks and the large watch face display. I have owned the watch for almost a month, and I like the ability to hit the light button to see what time it is in the dark. The triple senor capability is interesting if you want to know more about the environment you are in. I was looking for a rugged "work" watch with good looks, waterproof and a good price. I looked all over the internet and found Amazon had the best price with free shipping. I am very happy with my purchase and would buy the same watch again. |
Super Cool.......

Best than other expensive watches that claim to do the same but not.
Altimeter :OK (After minor adjust/config. , read manual)
Barometer: OK (Nothing to adjust in my citie)
Compass : OK (Tested with a USD600.00 Suntoo Compass)
Temp: OK (Minus +/- 2.5 degrees, considering wearing it. To be more accurate take it out of wrist for about 5 to 7 minutes and do a reading)
Ahhh and it tells time and date too....:)
This is a must have daily outdoors wrist watch.
Big one , you better first take a look at your self and try it before buy it , this is in case you dislike big face watches , eventhough it's men's fashion at this time.

Great watch, but lost it in Amazon's bait and switch game

| Casio triple sensors are an awesome product with rugged dependability. I saw this watch listed on Amazon's homepage for a great price, so I ordered it right away. I recieved a confirmation email, and notice that the product would arrive in 5-7 days. Three hours later, I received a cancellation email from Amazon. I went back to reorder, but the price was now triple the original price. When I called Amazon, they responded with several lies, and then tried to blame their supplier. This is "bait and switch" and it's illegal in many states. I've also learned that this practice is quite common for Amazon watches, so be wary. I have decided to take ALL my business elsewhere. |
Well designed watch

I've owned this for a few months (including a recent backpacking trip) and have found it very useful.
Pros: Great look, good design/functionality, I like the buttons on the side for each of the measurements. The altimeter seems precise (but drifts from day-to-day due to barometric pressure). The thermometer seems accurate as long as you're not wearing the watch! Not sure if there's any way around that. The compass is great and also seems very accurate. So far it's survived some abrasion and water and handled it fine.
Cons: The watch is quite big, I wish there were some way to have a more accurate temperature reading while wearing it, and a more accurate altitude. The watch has to be calibrated daily in order to be accurate. As far as I know, this is true with most any altitude watch as they are based on barometric pressure.
Overall I'm very satisfied so far! |
