 Great, fun watch! August 28, 2010
John Parker (New Jersey)
I find this watch to do everything it claims, at least for me. (I restrict my pursuit of the 7 Summits to reading and documentaries). Though a little bulky, it is fairly light. The only negative I can think of is that the elastic band's adjustablility is limited for thin wrists.
All of the functions work well, and the compass, barometer and altimeter are quite consistent in their readings. So far my peak altitude has been 1148 feet...very depressing!
I highly recommend it!

I have been using the balck version of this WS4 watch in Denver, Colorado for a week now and have found the altimeter to be very accurate. I calibrated it at the mile high stairs on the capitol steps elevation marker for 5,280 feet, and drove to Estes Park. At the 2 mile high marker it was only off by 5 feet (should have read 10,560 feet but read 10,565 feet), drove to the gift shop close to 8,000 feet (can not remember the exact elevation) and it was only off by one foot at their elevation sign, and then drove back to the capitol steps in Denver where it was exactly where it should have been at 5,280 feet. Calibrate it on the day of your adventure like you are suppose to and it is very accurate and a pleasure to use.
overall very good watch... June 16, 2010

overall i like the watch very much. the altimeter is accurate and the compass works great. the thermometer works well when you take it off (normal since the body temp affects the sensor). i like a big watch so this is perfect (initially i thought it might be too big even for my likes but i got used to it). my only complaint is that the excess watch band comes out of the plastic holder constantly. still would recommend it though for the price.

I was sold by what was supposed to be an extra long strap so you could strap it outside a jacket; it's not so long. And the whole watch feels cheap. I'm much happier with my Casio watches.
Great watch for the common aviator April 9, 2010

This watch is great for any pilot. The barometer, altitude, temp, and compass may be off but its just a guestemate. It gives you an idea of where you are at in these areas. Overall a great watch for the price.
