Casio Pathfinder 1500T: Don’t Get Lost
With all the goodies and gizmos contained within the case of this Casio Pathfinder, you’d be hard pressed not to get back into civilization in case you get lost somewhere. For the price, you’ll get a multitude of tools that can help you find your way. Aside from telling the time, obviously, the watch has a calendar, a moon phase diagram, a tide graph, a compass (with one recorded bearing), altimeter which records up to 20 measurements, barometer, and thermometer. That’s not even half of the features from the watch. The solar charger means that you don’t have to change the batteries – ever. A power save feature shuts of the display when the watch gets into a prolonged stay in the dark. The titanium bracelet and ruggedly tough case makes the watch water resistant up to 200 meters. Swiss watches will have a hard time keeping up with the features from this Pathfinder, and with their astronomical prices, you’d rather be lost in the woods with a Casio. $400.
