Casio 3202 Twin Sensor Watch

Works fine. Very happy with it.   I just needed an altimeter watch for whiteouts in the winter while hiking. I've been using it in weather around 15–35ºF so far and it works fine. Very happy with it. Had it for about a month. The manual is a problem to read, but I solved that by downloading the PDF version from the Internet and enlarging it on my desktop. Done that way, it is easy to figure out.

Casio 3202 Twin Sensor Watch

I purchased two of this watch. Had this model for 8 years till a jeweler replaced the battery then this watch failed, so I purchased another on Amazon. The barometer did not work so Amazon sent a second watch. This watch has the same problem, no barometer arrowhead. Full review

Casio 3202 Twin Sensor Watch

F-ed up instructions. Impossible to read the manual, and it does not make sense nor does the setup work. Total piece of sh*t. Full review

Casio G-Shock Rangeman GW9400-3

Features for days! Altimeter, barometer, compass, thermometer, sunrise/sunset data, and much more. Ease of Use: This is something that I felt could use some help. I may be spoiled on the ease of touch screens now, but cycling through all the menus is a pain. Price For a solar powered "ABC" watch with a ton of features that can stand up to the abuse the Rangeman can and still look great, I think the price is a steal. While the Rangeman may be the best G Shock watch on the market, it doesn't mean… Full review

Casio 3202 Twin Sensor Watch

I am totally satisfied using this watch. It is most advance technology available in very cheap price. All-in-one model, just like a watch but but many specifications included in this watch. Manufacturing quality was very rigid. Look so nice, silver plated straps dial is entirely different color combination. Full review

Casio 3202 Twin Sensor Watch

A reliable multi-function watch, with altimeter, at an excellent price point.  What can I say? I'm cheap! For a few years, I've been looking for an all-in-one watch that would include an altimeter and barometer, but the $200-500 price tag for a Suunto or St. Moritz was too steep for my tastes. Then a couple of years ago, Casio came out with two new watch designs at a much lower price point. In addition to the standard features on many digital watches (alarms, time zones, stop watches) one included… Full review

Highgear AltiTech

If altimeter was remotely accurate and compass less cumbersome to calibrate it would be a fantastic tool. I owned the Altitech for a number of years. I love the fact that it can be clipped on the outside of a pack (in winter who can read a watch when it's under a couple of layers?) and it has all the basic features (too many actually) one might ever need. My motivation to buy one was to keep track of altitude and changing weather conditions which are dependent upon good barometric readings. Full review
