| | Description | Set a course for adventure every day you wear this solar-powered Casio Pathfinder Triple Sensor men's digital watch (model PAG80-1V), which includes a built-in digital compass, altimeter, barometer, and thermometer. This extra-large, round watch features large function buttons that are easily accessible even when wearing gloves. Both the case and strap are made from durable resin. 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. Because it's solar-powered--charging in either sunlight or indoor light--you'll never have to deal with changing the battery. Light enters the watch through the sapphire crystal and dial, and hits a solar cell beneath the dial. Current is created and stored in the battery. The duplex LCD provides two liquid crystal panels, enabling you to select from among different display patterns. 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 yacht timer, which is used to time the start of regattas. The countdown period can be set from 1 to 10 minutes. An acoustic signal is emitted after each minute has elapsed and then once a second for the last ten seconds. Other timekeeping functions include a daily alarm, optional hourly time signal, and 12/24-hour formats. Other features include a comfortable resin strap, scratch-resistant mineral crystal, AfterGlow LED electro-luminescent backlight, and water resistance to 100 meters (330 feet). | |

 Read the manual on solar charging Nov 16, 2008
By Otis Maxwell
This is a really well-engineered watch with many features that are far superior to my previous-generation altimeter watch. But I bought it heading into an upstate New York winter and that is presenting a problem since the watch is inside my sleeve and not exposed to light as required for solar charging. As a result I'm finding I have to wear the watch one day, then leave it in a window all the next day to get an adequate charge for operating. Too much of a tradeoff for the cool feature of solar charging, so I'd recommend you buy the same watch in the battery-operated model.
UPDATE: according to the manual (p. E-87), "in order to generate enough power for normal daily operations" the watch needs to be exposed to 5 minutes a day of outdoor sunlight or 21 minutes a day of sunlight through a window. So now I just leave it on a windowsill till I'm ready to wear it. And next summer when I go backpacking I'll strap it on the top of my pack (something that's advisable anyway for accurate altimeter readings, which are affected by temperature/body heat) and perhaps achieve the 6 hours of full sunlight required for a complete charge.
UPDATE: continuing with my reading of the manual, there's a supplement on charging that says you should charge the watch to its maximum before using. I left it outdoors for 2 days on a trip to Texas and now have "high" battery charge at all times with just a few hours on a sunny windshield every couple days. Would like to change my rating to 4 or maybe 5 stars with this big concern out of the way.

 Absolute Great Watch - Recommend to anyone May 17, 2008
By Kenneth Guthrie
"A Ken to all"
With this watch you can't go wrong. First, even though one variation will sync with the Atomic clock for about $40-50$ more, don't waste your money. This watch stays within just a second or two per month accuracy. In addition to keeping time, the capabiity to select a world zone by a city and then use that dual clock is as simple as it gets.
As usual, Casio makes a watch that does not take a genuis to learn to use - even without reading the manual. Determining how to use the Altimeter, Barometer, and electronic compass is virtually self-explanatory. You do need to know that you have to manually synchronize the altimeter in order to ensure your readings are correct during a given time period. The only way to prevent this is to have a watch that could triangulate its altitude from satelites and to my knowledge, that dog hasn't been born. However, that being said, the importance lies in the fact that you have a tracking graph that indicates a 24 hour history of changes in both the barometer and altitude. That's what's really important so that even if the altitude settings are off, or the barometric pressure setting is temporarily incorrect, you can look at the graph and know the relative change. For instance, if the graph indicates dropping pressure over the past few hours, you can pretty much assume, the weather is probably going to move from good to bad (low pressure usually indicates a weather front is coming through or rain developing).
One nice surprise is that when using the watch at night, a simple tilt of the wrist toward your face will cause the back light to temporarily come on. I.e., you don't have to push the button. I never saw this function in the ads or in the manual.
Finally, it is well built and although reasonably large by watch standards, it is comfortable for a man. I'm not sure most women would want to wear it though. You can't go wrong with this watch. Just make sure it is this model because some of the others close to the same price do not have all of these functions.

CASIO PATHFINDER PAG80 Jan 12, 2008
By Michael R. Haywood
"Michael R. Haywood"
This is the third Pathfinder I have owned - All three have been great watches, with one minor exception and hopefully this watch will change that -
This watch is a SOLAR watch which IS NOT supposed to require battery replacement - If that is true, then all should be good - Because, on the replacement of batteries, you can't do it yourself - You can try, but very doubtful if you will get the watch to function normally again -
One last thing on Pathfinder watches - Take them off when in the shower, the soap buildup from after a few years will jam up the mechanisms for the different functions of the watch -

A good watch, but it over promises regarding features. Jul 26, 2007
By Brandon J. Frazee
"Brandon0802"
Overall this is a good watch; however, the non time keeping features have fallen short of my expectations. The compass can not be used for navigating even the shortest legs due to an 11 degree margin of error. The thermometer or altimeter features lack accuracy as well and can only be used to take rough measurements. The stop watch and alarm features are easy to use. The durability is high and that is an important feature to me. Casio advertises that a signal sent out daily will keep the time set correctly but this feature will not work if you are outside of North America as I often am. In summation this is a good watch for outdoor activities but the navigational features leave something to be desired.

Great Outdoor Watch Apr 26, 2006
By P. Seto
My new watch has just arrived. Earlier than I expected. Thanks for the fast delivery from digitalfotoclub.com. I paid $169.90 with free delivery. The watch is a bit difficult to set in the beginning, but once I got use to it by reading the user's guide and just play with it for a while, it's quit easy and I just love it. It almost got everything I need. The only disappointment is that the thermometer only reads down to -10 degree Celsius or 14 degree Fahrenheit. (Which I know before I place the order. I'll be going to some places where the temperature will be well below that...) Compare to other similar watches on the market, the Casio Pathfinder Series are the best, both in qualities and prices. The similar Suunto watches will cost much more than the Casio watches.
