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.

Casio Men's AQ164W-7AV Ana-Digi Sport Watch Review

This watch looks good and is easy to set up. The use of lcd's as a second hand is very clever. The drawback with this is that they are very hard to read even in bright light. I would recommend that the maker change the color of the lcd's for the second hand or use another medium to make them readable.
Overall, for the price, this watch has functions and looks that make it a good buy.

Timex Men's T45201 Expedition Multi-Function Analog and Digital Combo Watch Review

Timex Men's T45201 Expedition Multi-Function Analog and Digital Combo Watch

It's a very nice watch for the price. Not too large, and the strap is water-resistant leather which is nice. One major shortcoming for me is that this watch (and probably others by timex) only supports dual time zones if the time zones are an even hour-length apart. Attempting to set time zone 1 to eastern time and zone 2 to India time (10.5 hours apart) is not possible, since it only lets you set the hours and not the minutes on the second time zone.
You could also set the analog clock to one time zone and the digital to another, but I seem to have the problem of always bumping the crown setting, resulting in the analog clock often showing the wrong time.

Designed for active, outdoor lifestyles--as well as the rigors of harsh urban landscapes--the full-sized Timex stainless steel analog/digital men's watch (model 45201) adds a stylish yet rugged complement to your everyday wear. It features a large silver stainless steel watch case that's topped by a bi-directional rotating bezel with black engraved elapsed time markings and coin-edged detailing for a sure grip in inclement conditions. The olive dial includes large stick markers, luminous hands (with red seconds hand), and small minute indexes.

Other features include a water resistant brown leather strap (with brown stitching) and water resistance to 100 meters (330 feet).
The Indiglo night-light uniformly lights the surface of the watch dial using patented blue electroluminescent lighting technology. It uses less battery power than most other watch illumination systems, enabling your watch battery to last longer. The Night Mode feature allows you to illuminate the Indiglo night-light for 3 seconds with any button press, regardless of the mode or function.

Timex Kids' T71962 IronKids Digital Fast Wrap Blue Watch Review

Timex Kids' T71962 IronKids Digital Fast Wrap Blue Watch

My boy received Timex Ironkids watch as a Christmas present last year. He liked it very much but the watch plastic part was broken in 7 months. So I ordered a replacement from Amazon. Several months later, the watch freezes up. I checked it and found three out of four buttons don't bounce back after pressing them.
My boy does like the design of this watch but two watches were broken in ten months. So don't expect it can last very long if you decide to buy this watch.
