 really cool bigass watch October 23, 2006

I am really happy with my new watch. I go to the beach often and always forget my tide charts, so that function as been very useful. The barometer is a great way to predict short term weather patterns and the digital compass is accurate, easy to use and very handy when directions need clarifying.
The only draw backs to it are the size of the thing, it is very large compard to any other watch I have ever owned, the barometer button gets pushed accidently if you flex your hand to far and the stop watch rounds to the nearest second, no fractions here.
I am very happy with mine however, it does everything that my three old watches did and more in one mannly looking wrist piece.
BEST WATCH EVER!! October 24, 2004

I've had this watch since last December!! It's the best watch I've ever owned. Love the solar powered aspect (will charge on cloudy days too). It's a very large watch, so if you don't like that, then don't get this. However, it looks cool and the compass and barometer features I use the most...haven't used the altimeter (I don't skydive) but the next time I fly I will check it out. BUY THIS WATCH!!
Snookaholic is very impressed with this Watch March 29, 2009

I have read everyones review regarding this watch. Yes this watch is big which is fine because I am a big guy. I wouldn't recommend this watch for the ladies because it is so large. I really do like the look of this watch. The face is big as well as the numbers so it is very easy to read. I have looked at and reviewed just about every tide watch none to man kind before I purchased this one. Lets talk about the tide mode. Most tide watches allow you to put in a city code choice into the watch. Well would if the city code that is in the watch does not match to where you live? Would if it isn't even close to where you live? Well what good is a tide watch if it doesn't give you a tide reading in your area! This is what I really love about this watch. It uses longitude and Lunitidal interval readings to give you a tide reading no matter where your at. The Lunitidal Interval is where the moon is set between Moonrise and Moonset. Once you figure that time out then you figure out that time and the next high tide and program those numbers into the watch. It is not an exact accurate reading but, you can program this watch to come very close to an accurate tide reading in your area. Depending on where you live there can be two high tides taking place in one day. This watch is not set up to tell you this. On the other hand there is no other tide watch that will do this either. This watch will by far give you a more accurate reading than any other Tide Watch on the market. How nice it is to look down at your watch and be able to tell what the tide is and wether the moon is full or not. The other thing I liked about Casio is that they help you program this watch by giving instructions on the internet. How do you know if your going to like the watch if you don't know how it works? I was able to pull up the instructions of this watch on Casio Pathfinder watch manuels in the internet before I even purchased the watch. Which explained everything to me about this watch and how to program it. The Barometer graph is small but very helpful. This watch will tell you the temperature but you really have to read the instructions carefully to program this watch accurately. I like the fact that this watch is light. The watch ligths up really well when it is dark. The illuminesence is so bright that you can even see it in the sun light. I would recommend this watch to anyone who likes to fish, scuba dive, or any kind of boating or Sailing that you may do. If you like being on the water this is the watch for you. I scuba dive but I would not recommend you use this for scubadiving. 1. because it doesn't give you a depth measurement underwater. 2. if you push the buttons while you are underwater it might leak. This watch has been rated to go 100 meters which is 330 feet. I use a wrist computer made for scubadiving. I have had Casio watches in the past that I did use for scubdiving and they never leaked so I leave this decision upto to you. I have had a lot of Casio watches in the past and they are tough as nails. So plan on having this watch for a while. I hope this review has helped you in making your decision.

Great watch, I use it for surfing and wear it just about every day. The tide function is really accurate and the large read out is great for use in the water. At times its almost too large to use as an every day watch but until the novelty wears off - the barometer and compass also seem to work well.
Excellent watch with room for improvement July 15, 2008

I bought this watch for yacht racing and kayaking. The most important features for me are the timer and the tide chart. Compass is very handy as a backup device.
Downsides:
a. The tide indicator is mighty approximate. It would be very nice if you could manually enter the time of high tide for one or more favorite harbors and then have the watch compute the tides from then on and display the high and low tides digitally. Currently, the best you can do is "about an hour from high tide" or "the tide should be going out".
b. The button for reading the barometer is situated so that it can be pressed accidentally by flexing the wrist. 50% of the time when I glance at the watch, I get a barometric pressure instead of the time. Not convenient when counting down the seconds before a start. This issue could easily be solved by making the barometer a "press twice within one second" switch.
c. Given that they've got a barometer in the watch, would it have hurt to make it an altimeter as well? Some of us sailors go on the occasional hike or skiing expedition too.
The watch is big and I occasionally get the "that's the largest watch I've ever seen" comment, but so what? Lots of info is immediately available and it's in sufficiently large type that I don't have to squint.
