Nowadays it's hard to get a quality watch. I wear a Casio Men's PAW2000-1CR Pathfinder and I'd like to share my knowledge and mark some of its benefits and disadvantages. It's your decision whether this is the best choice for you or not.
I own a Casio Men's PAW2000-1CR Pathfinder for some time and I want to share some of its benefits and disadvantages.
I wanted to get a nice watch which could last at least for 5-6 years and which will be easy to service. I hesitated for a while because the variety of types and models can make the choice really difficult. I found out a lot about solar-powered watches and I wanted to get one.
Solar watches are provided with solar cells and use gratuitous energy from the sun or another source of light. When sufficiently charged, their secondary battery can operate for months without light. Furthermore you don't have to change the battery and hereby you contribute to preserving the nature.
Why to choose a Casio watch? There are a large number of catchpenny solar watches from unknown makers but I was searching not only for a pretty and useful watch but I wanted a guarantee for quality. Therefore I decided to take a watch from a famous company in the branch. I selected Casio Men's PAW2000-1CR Pathfinder and I don't regret it. The watch looks very well, it's comfortable and easy to maintain.
The first and most important thing I expect from a watch is accuracy. Casio atomic watches get radio signal from the atomic clocks in institutes in US, UK, Germany, Japan and China. I travel frequently and now the wristwatch will automatically set the time for me. I'm sure that wherever I go, the displayed time will remain right all the time. Even without signal adjustment the deviation is lesser than -/+ 20 seconds per month and I'm happy that I'll never need to set the time.
Casio Men's PAW2000-1CR Pathfinder is a pretty sporty everyday watch. I like its thin and elegant design. It looks fine on the wrist and in addition it's lighter than I expected. At the same time I'm sure that this is a solid watch and it can overcome different challenges. Casio solar watches are water, low temperature and shock-resistant so you can use them all the time.
This particular watch is great for sports like jogging, hunting, hiking, fishing, etc. The watch has many functions (compass, altimeter, thermometer, calendar, timers, and alarms) and the majority of them operate really well. The compass is trustworthy for finding the right way and the barometer forecasts weather changes. I have to admit that the altimeter is not always accurate but after all it may be used for guidance.
I want to admit two minor shortcomings. The first one is the alarm - it's pretty low and I can't always become awar of it, particularly in a noisy environment. The second one is the thermometer that doesn't operate well when the watch is on the wrist. If you insist on getting the exact temperature, you have to take it off and leave it for a while.
In summary: I strongly recommend Casio Men's PAW2000-1CR Pathfinder if you're looking for a useful multifunctional watch for your hobbies. This solar watch is pretty and comfortable and has lots of useful functions for outdoor activities.
