Waterproof Digital Watch Military Army Outdoor Sports Watch

I bought this watch to replace my much loved Casio "altimeter" watch, which Casio have decided to discontinue. I toyed with buying a GPS watch, but since it is going to be banged against stiles, rock and gates in the great outdoors, I went for something which could be replaced it or when it gets scratched or broken. I also wanted a watch which could give distance in miles, altitude in feet and temperature in celcius, all of which can be selected for this watch, although km, metres and farenheit are also available. I looked at some of the much more expensive watches, but frankly their displays were just too faint to read in less than perfect light. This one has a clear display. Now, six months on and I have nothing but praise for this fantastic watch. The altimeter is based on atmospheric pressure, and so needs setting at the start of each walk. Whilst this is straightforward, as the watch reads to the nearest foot, adjusting the height is a little time consuming, and I tend to not bother, and simply work out how much higher we are now! The best (unexpected) feature is definitely the built in pedometer. After a couple of walks I know to be 10 miles, it was an easy calculation to set the "pace length" so that the watch now accurately measures how long a walk is. One slight "quirk" with the pedometer us that at the start of a walk you have to "wake it up" with a sort of drumming gesture of your arm, and sometimes after a pause, such as a lunch stop, you need to repeat the gesture. I suspect that the strap will split in time (that was what did for my Casio) and I am not sure how easy sourcing a replacement strap will be, but the price of this watch was only a little more than the cost of a replacement strap for the Casio. All in all, and excellent watch.

The features work, good quality and better price than others.

Amazing product and it works as it says.

fast delivery. Looks great. step counter did not work so i sent it back

Rubbish, functionality is very hit and miss. Display very difficult to read, compass inaccurate in fact only thing good about this watch is that it looks good. I would have said its good at keeping time but whats the point of that if you cant read the display

The watch is great I bought it as a present and went through all the functions to make sure it worked before wrapping it up. All the features are there and work fine. The interesting feature all worked to a high standard, Alt, compass, Pedometer. The watch numbers are clear and bright, and for those who need it there is a backlight function. Great watch for the money. Shame about the delivery, despite having a sprung letter box, door knocker and a door bell. The package was left on the front step in plane site in the rain without knocking the door. I was in the front room all day catching up with work and only left the room a couple of times even then my wife was in the room. I went out to put the rubbish out and there was the package. The amazon outer packaging saved the day from the rain though so the watch boxing and watch were not damaged.

The thing for me that lets this watch down is the strap - it is just terribly thin and I think it will snap. But other than that - it would easily be 5 stars. It really did surprise me a) was easy to setup b) does what it says on the tin c) looks good and d) display was way better than expected. Better than my Suunto I display-wise I think! Lots of bang for buck - i like.

This watch does it all this is s:a:s at its best altimeter, compass , waterproof, light weight strap and just like fairy liquid soft and smooth but best of all step monitor and reset at night automatically when taken off , that is valve for money, oh arrived with in 24 hours?

L'orologio mi piace. Ha lo sfondo troppo scuro. Nella foto non si nota, ma il contrasto tra sfondo e numeri non è troppo felice. La luce celeste illumina bene, e di notte si vede bene. L'orologio è preciso, mantiene bene l'ora. Il termometro è preciso anch'esso, così come va bene anche il sensore del barometro. Le previsioni meteo sono buone, e avvertono con uno, o due giorni di anticipo, che tempo farà, o potrebbe fare.. Indicava pioggia, e ha piovuto; indicava "sole" e c'è stato sole. E' una previsione del tempo, non è una indicazione del tempo attuale. Bussola e altimetro si starano spesso. La bussola mantiene l'orientamento corretto per due giorni, poi si stara. Il brutto è che non sappiamo se la bussola è starata o no. L'altimetro si stara anche due volte al giorno, a seconda di come soffia il vento.. ma, io ho saputo che tutti gli apparecchi simili si starano sempre.. ho altri altimetri in casa, e hanno bisogno di regolazioni anch'essi. Forse, solo una marca funziona bene, ma è un discorso a parte.. Il simbolo meteo è piccolo, è scritto sopra la data, e ha quattro segni: sole, sole-nuvolo, nuvolo, pioggia. Ognuno si accende in corrispondenza della previsione. Il cicalino, quindi anche la sveglia, è debole, come è tipico degli orologi. Una proposta per il fabbricante: sarebbe bello se l'orologio avesse la accensione automatica ruotando il braccio; e se avesse il segnale orario allo scoccare di ogni ora. Inoltre ha il conteggio dei passi, con calorie. Io non lo uso, non l'ho mai usato, ma c'è. Come da descrizione, c'è il cronometro, c'è il conto alla rovescia, c'è un altro fuso orario, a scelta. Il meteo si regola anche sulla città di riferimento. Io, per l'Italia, ho trovato Roma, e ho selezionato Roma. Semba che abbia solo le capitali. Mi è arrivato con le impostazioni di Londra, da dove è partito. Comodo poiché ha la batteria interna, a bottone. Non so che batteria è, ma dura due anni. Non devo portare il cavetto di ricarica ogni volta che parto da casa. Le istruzioni sono in inglese. Comprensibili anche per chi non conosce l'inglese. 50 metri di impermeabilità.

Sehr gute Uhr mit sehr genauen Werten, für Luftdruck Barometer in Hektor Pascal, Höhenmesser, Wettervorhersage und Kompass. Der Kompass muß logischerweise erst kalibriert werden, damit er digital angezeigt wird. Es wird dann keine Nadel angezeigt, sondern Englische Werte wie N für North oder NE für North East (Nord Osten) usw. Wenn man richtig kalibriert hat dan wird der genaue Norden mit N 0°, also Norden und null Grad angezeigt für den geografische Nordpol. Wenn man sich dreht, ändern sich die Grad Zahlen und die Buchstaben der Richtung. (Wenn man will, kann man auch den MAGNETISCHEN Nordpol einstellen statt den Geografischen der auf einem standart Kompass mit Nadel zu sehen ist. Das wäre aber nur etwas für Profies). Die Schritte zur Kalibrierung stehen in der Anleitung. Nach der Kalibrierung zeigt der Kompass genau die Werte wie ein normaler physischer Kompass mit einer Nadel. Für die Wettervorhersage muß zuerst die richtige Stadt als Standort eingestellt werden, für Deutschland wäre das BER für Berlin. Diese Uhr kann ausserdem, andere Werte messen, wie Schritte, Kalorienverbrauch, gelaufene Kilometer, Stoppuhr und Timer mit Rückwertsrechnung. Alarm kann man auch einstellen.
