Pros & Cons
Pros
The protrek has a larger display than most casio watches. The strap raises the watch slightly above the wrist so you don't get sweat on the caseback. The left side is what gets me mixed up as it controls additional timer/stopwatch/alarm settings and c... Read More
The solar charging works great. It gets plenty of charge just from me wearing it and whatever ambient light is inside my house. The face is easy to read in full sun or shade and the light can be set for 1 or 3 second duration.
The battery has never run low despite the fact it has sat in my closet in the dark for a few months. Has handled 3 days in the woods without issue. The functions, as far as i can tell, are accurate.
This watch does it all for the hobbyist. It has some of the same features as my rangeman except the multiband 6 time sync. It's pricey, but for all of the features and functions it's equipped with, it's actually a bit less expensive that what i would ... Read More
The barometer and compass are its best functions. Compass seems consistent and accurate, which is one of the only functions i actually use regularly.
Cons
The altimeter needs to be re-calibrated every 2 hours as well as the thermometer. For some reason the darn thing keeps resetting the date and time on me.

This watch is a good watch, it's mechanically solid, loaded with features and bells and whistles, just as water resistant as de... Read More
This watch may not be a g-shock, but it's abundantly durable, very clear, accurate and usable.

Price
Great purchase, especially if you can get it on sale like i did.
I purchased this watch on 12/8/2020 thru my ex-girlfriend's amazon account (hence why it won't say i'm a "verified purchase")al... Read More
I used to be a cheap dude - a $15 watch every year kind of guy (because my watches rarely if ever lasted that long).
I've been looking for a budget altimeter watch, i found it.
Shipping
I do not look forward to having to ship it back to casio for warranty repair if that doesn't fix it.
Packaging/appearance
This one comes with a wooden protrek box and it came broken.
I like the watch so far, but i collect casios and the boxes are nice to keep.
Good looking, but very disappointed that it's not atomic timing!
Competitiveness
They both share the same white double led lighting and abc sensor from 2013, as well as tough solar.
Slightly smaller face than it's predecessor which means it's lighter too.

Casio does need to make a better light feature to read in the dark but it works ok just in 2022 you would thing they would come up with something better

Update have had this watch for a while now and however it detects magnetic north south my body will mess that up if i wear the watch consistently over several days

Pocket knives that have good steel in the blades also get magnetized from being on my person so maybe i was hoping that the watch being digital it might have been resistant

If i wear it for several days then i need to 34demag34 and let it sit for a couple of hours then the compass works as intended
