August 31st, 2007 - Casio Pathfinder PAW1300 Altimeter

Although there are other watches out there with the same features its compact and lightweight design plus its very easy-to-use altimeter has impressed its customers and critics alike. Features of the new watch includes atomic timekeeping and a tiny solar cell. The atomic timekeeping device syncs with the atomic ttransmitter from Fort Colins, Colorado daily giving you great accuracy.

Other features include an altimeter, thermometer, barometer, tide graph, diving graph, auto LED (light emitting diode), multiple alarms and a digital compass. With all these features the Pathfinder PAW1300 is truly the latest watch any hiker, climber and even diver will need.
The watch costs about $300 to $350, depending on the casing and watch strap (plastic or titanium) you choose. For more details visit the Casio Pathfinder website.
