Casio Men's Sports Watch SGW300HB-3AV Review

I purchased this item a few weeks ago and am enjoying it. I had one a few years ago and when it went south the altimeter is the thing I missed most. After being without for a couple of years it is nice to an altimeter back. The nice thing about this watch it is much cheaper than the one I purchased years ago and works just as well. Because of the way they work it is not 100% accurate because it works on barometric pressure which can change with a storm or two. That known, it is still fun to play with. If you want something that is 100% accurate get a GPS which works off of a satellite and should be 100% accurate all of the time but they are not as portable or as inexpensive.

Casio Men's SGW300H-1AVCF Twin Sensor Multi-Function Digital Sport Watch Review

Casio Men's SGW300H-1AVCF Twin Sensor Multi-Function Digital Sport Watch
Average Reviews:

All declared functions (barometer, altimeter, termometer, alarms) work good. But you must understand how altimeter works: even on the table altimeter can show different altitude if atmospheric pressure changes. Calibrate it every time pressure changes to get proper altitude measurment.
I'm not sure if the window is mineral - it can be easily scratched like plastic.
Other disadvantage is bad viewing angles of the screen: even right angle is not OK, it is better to look at the sreen angularly.
Rather big watch - be aware!
I like this watch - low-cost but functional. I only miss a compass and scratch-proof window:)

Casio Men's Pathfinder Triple Sensor Altimeter/Barometer/Digital Compass Watch #PAG40-3V Review

Casio Men's Pathfinder Triple Sensor Altimeter/Barometer/Digital Compass Watch #PAG40-3V

I love this watch and never travel without it. I followed the instructions in the manual and use the thermometer a lot. To get an accurate ambient air temp reading I just take off the watch and wait about 8 minutes in the shade. You can also calibrate the thermometer and found the factory setting to be dead accurate! I discovered that if you read the temp while wearing this watch it will read your skin temp and have found this to be very helpful in monitoring my skin temp. Anything less than a 83 degrees means I am starting to get uncomfortably cold and need to warm up. 86 degrees skin temp is perfect for me. Knowing this allows me to tell if I have a fever or just over worked etc.
I use the altimeter alarm function when I fly to alert me of a faulty cabin pressure system during my commercial flights. I set my PAG 40 alarm to 8000 which is the maximum altitude pressure allowed in passenger cabins set by the FAA. If the cabin pressurization goes above 8000 ft the alarm will sound on the PAG 40. There is a graph at the top of the screen to check your altitude history. The graph is also used for tracking barometer history.
I calibrate my altimeter daily to get an accurate reading since the barameter will change by the hour.
The compass feature is great and you can also calibrate that too. I find the compass usefull at night and on heavy overcast days.
You get 5 seperate alarms and a short alarm for the top of each hour. All the alarms can be turned off or on seperately.
The stopwatch function does split times and single timing. It will not do laptimes for example timing laps at a race on after the other.
It runs on 4 batteries part# 395. Which I was able to change them myself.
Watch speed calibration was also accessible!
The display is large and easy to read.
I have owned my Casio PAG 40 for two years now.
The watch band has held just great so far and the watch is free of defects.
I plan to buy two more of these watches.

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.

I'm very glad with this watch.
Pros: all, This watch is accurate, user friendly, and appealing to the eye. I need to add that the Indiglo lights up the black face very well, making it easy to tell the time. In fact, you can see all of the dials, which is incredible.
Advice:Read carefully the instructions before you begin playing with the watch functions, you will think the watch is defective. The watch requires some simple to perform calibrations for the compass dials to function properly.

Tissot Men's T33.1.588.51 T-Touch Stainless Steel Watch Review

Tissot Men's T33.1.588.51 T-Touch Stainless Steel Watch
Average Reviews:

The advantages of this watch: "gee wow" touch screen, heavy construction, sapphire, staus and prestige of the brand name.
The disadvantages:
* the digital display is often obscured by the analogue hands.
* the digital display is rudimentary - poor format for date, digits only.
* no countdown timer.The competition:
If you really want a watch that does all the things routinely expected of a digital watch plus temperature, altitude and compass, look at Casio and Suunto. They have several models that do it all, with a clearer, more easily read display plus extra features like recording temperature and altitude. And they are cheaper.
In summary, the Tissot is for status, but if you want a tool that will do the job, get a Casio or Suunto.
I have had the Tissot for about 2 weeks. I will sell it and go back to my 15 year old Casio Alti-Thermo.
