I bough one, in green with cordura brace, back in 2015. I was an outdoor mountain guide in the Argentinian Andes back then and it never let me down. Beaten, muddy, dirty, a bit scratched up, but it still works perfectly fine, and the battery is the one that came with it. Recommend it 100%.

Casio tough solar - lasts forever. And in a G-shock it never breaks :)
@sanatan6083 3 жыл бұрын
Tough solar is a casio technology which not only converts solar energy to power reserver but also converts any light source to power reserve. I own this exact watch and i must say, it will last a life time. God level watch.

This is one of my favorite Casio outdoor watches. At this price point, it offers everything (Triple Sensor) to dedicated ABC Buttons. The only thing I sorely missed was the Moon Phase display. But again people would say that I'm asking for a lot at this price point. But considering the fact that it packs a lot into this , I don't think cramming a Moon Phase display inside the watch would have been issue. Having said this, this is bang for your buck. The altimeter and Compass are spot on (provided you calibrate altimeter when weather changes) and one could actually use this as a survival tool. The battery is outstanding and the navigation is very easy because of 5 buttons to play with.

Thanks for the insightful comment! It's real bargain package I have to say... I haven't done the research but there may well be a Pro Trek model with the triple sensor along with moon & tide display for around the same price. The Rangement would be a primary competitor within Casio to many of these lower end Pro Trek - for around the same $200 price you also get the triple sensor, sunset-sunrise, and tough solar, PLUS atomic time sync, G-Shock construction, and steel buttons on top!

@PerthWAtch 5 жыл бұрын
I'm not commenting on colours as that is rather subjective. With regards to the physical watch, I don't think either is necessarily better, the modules effectively have identical functions. The 240 is bigger and has a tougher look, and has the duplex LCD if that's desirable for you. The 270 is more streamlined and "quieter", so would overall be more versatile. It depends on your taste and purpose.

Hello there,Anyone can tell me for sure if i can or cannot scuba dive with this watch?Also I dont really understand when a company say the watch is 100wr but then I cannot go for a dive 18m???Thank you.
@PerthWAtch 6 жыл бұрын
Hi there, thanks for the question. This watch is rated 100m and based on info Casio themselves provide you can skin dive but should not scuba dive with it. The ratings refer to static pressures but remember that doing any activity creates dynamic pressure which can transiently be significantly higher than static pressures. Check out the Wikipedia article and other sources for more info: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_Resistant_mark

I rewatched that part of the video, you mention it has temperature sensor and demonstrate it and comment that it is at 31C, but you don't say how accurate to the temperature that day. The one I have appears to be off so I agree that it's not accurate@@PerthWAtch
@PerthWAtch Жыл бұрын
It’s not actually inaccurate as such… but I believe everyone would consider the purpose of the function is to show the ambient temp and as such it fails in many circumstances as the body temp affects the reading. Leave the watch on a table or any neutral surface and it shows the ambient temp accurately.

@PerthWAtch 5 жыл бұрын
In term of outright functions, the models are essentially the same. The 240 is overall more robust in construction IMO, and also features a double layer LCD (top layer being the digital compass). It is bigger and bolder, so if you want something quieter go with the 270, but for outright rough and toughness, it's 240 that wins.
