The Casio PAW5000-1 is far from those Casios of old. It is a sofisticated useable tool plus it tells time extremely acurrately. Is the watch perfect in its mesaurements of altitude and temperature and its compass readings? accurate enough for most people who will never be lost enough to need it. The watch is large but very light weight. It will fit most mens wrists , but make sure you know your wrist size if in doubt. While the berometer scale is small in the window at 6:00 pm , you can still read pressure and temp readings easily. The watch is expensive but then again you get what you pay for in this world and it seems tough enough for those guys not gentle with their watches and yet dressy enough for the office or boardroom. The tough movement seems fine although I don't abuse the things I buy so I cannot attest to this feature. One thing you will know for sure and that is the correct time always. This watch will recieve the time signal from most locations in the USA and I can recieve them in Mexico just fine. While in Florida my watch didn't seem to be able to get the Colorado signal but then I only tried it in one location. Buy this watch if you like gagets that are quality and functional instruments of time. I know any husband or son will love recieving this watch.
