CasioPRW3500 Series | Pro Trek | 100M WR | Compass | Alt/Baro-Thermo | Tough Solar Power | Atomic Timekeeping | 1-100 SEC Stopwatch | Countdown Timer | World Time

Update : 2nd Review Date : 12/17/2020.First, its been quiet a ride with this watch over the past year.Pros1. Saying that this is a rugged watch would be an understatement and an insult to this beast.2. I witnessed the time change automatically when travelling. It worked for me and was pretty cool! :)3. The compass works like a charm, there is always one situation every year where you need that one tool to make the day. Unlike hummingbirds, we suck at directions. I had memorized the compass degree to my house incase I know what heading to use when lost,and I used the compass to drive back home.4. I have been using the (2 Pack) Zshion Casio PRW-3500/PRW-3100/PRW-3000/PRW-2500 Screen Protector and has saved the screen of this watch, and I love it. So do get that screen protector.Cons1. Timer does not suit my needs, but works in certain situations : let me explain.Before this watch I used a casio SGW-100, and it has a timer that can be set and it can go off every 5 minutes, which I loved, which worked great for doing little chores around the house or going for a small walk. it worked great into implimenting small habits when timed. The PRW 3500 does not have that function which is the biggest con for me.2. If you are a one watch kind of person, then your other watches will suffer. I have tried to use this watch to almost every occasion except an interview. So Yeah, my other watches are R.I.P. which means, times to sell:)3. Uncomfortable in certain situations : Recently I have started taking notes on my laptop, and the watch becomes a hindrance as it not only raises my left wrist when typing, but also when I move hands, the watch bands hit the edges of the laptop and my wrist gets bumped. It is annoying but I just take the watch off and admire its ruggedness right next to the laptop. (No product is perfect, I would highly recommend this watch, despite the cons I have noticed because it does the basic things really well, that I have documented in my previous review from last year).All in all, I would highly recommend this watch as a MUST, just like you carry your drivers ID and cash.I am posting more photos, and hope they do justice to this beast of a watch,Thank you for reading this far, Hope this helps you.Happy holidays and many fun days with this watch!See you next year,Stay safe (W6W : wear a mask, 6 feet apart, wash hands)Fez.----------First ReviewI dont want to sound biased, but over the years I have learned, don't save the best for the last. I should have just purchased this watch when I saw it rather than spend money on other watches.Pros for me :1. Simplicity at its finest.2. Excellent Size, big digital screen with big numbers.2. Rugged watch.4. Pre-calibrated compass, stop watch and timer : all features that I use every day!5. No battery changes6. Atomic Time : Love the science behind that concept itself, which means that clock will adjust the time according to the time zone you are in. I have yet to experience this :)Thank you for reading.

Bought it exactly 4 years ago (2020) albeit for $160 while on sale. This has been my daily "driver" and I don't baby it (nor abuse it)- swim in the ocean all the time, go hiking, etc. Do rinse it after salt water exposure, but am surprised all the buttons still work and not gotten stuck.Backlight is excellent, display very easy to read in (or out of) the water. Never ran out of battery (solar charging). Barometer/Altimeter and temperature sensors are the main reasons I bought it for all my activities. Only wish it had tide tables, but otherwise this has been the perfect activity watch.Replaced the wrist band recently, other than that it works without issues. Barring some minor scuffing/scratches around the bezel, it even looks good still. Zero scratches on the crystal, probably due to the raised "lip" (crystal being recessed well below the bezel) that takes all the beating. There's occasional fogging of the crystal (due to temperature changes?), but seems to be common with all Casio watches I've owned.Will definitely buy another one (or the upgraded version), especially when it's under $200 again.Was considering upgrading to a quad-sensor Gulfmaster with sapphire crystal (GWNQ1000-1A), but seeing the condition of the used ones on eBay, which all seemed to be severely scratched up, decided to keep using this one till it dies. Seems Casio just hit the jackpot with this ProTrek for quality finishing (ion-plated) vs. a more expensive Gulfmaster that ends up looking like schit...

OK let me say i have a HUGE collection of casio watches ranging from the 1980s to present. When this thing came in, i hated how ugly i thought it was. Didn't fit the bill for me style. So i sent it back. Well.... biggest mistake ever. Ended up buying it again 3 days later because let's face it, here's the truth.This thing has atomic time keeping. Always on the dot of exact time and you can't beat that.The back light on this thing is unlike any casio I've owned. Man is it powerful! With the lights turned off in my room it literally illuminates the entire room and i love that POWER!The display is clear as day. I can look at it at any angle and know what time it is. Clearer than any casio i own.Now the barometer is super accurate. It let's me know when a storm is coming and when the weather is good. A fantastic barometer with those version 3 sensors everyone wants.The altimeter is great. I'm a skydiver and i take this thing up in the plane with me and my lord! I press the altimeter button and it is dead on with my main altimeter as we climb up.The compass is accurate but the function i use the least.And the 200 meter water resistance you just can't beat. If I'm not in the sky, during the summer I'm in the ocean doing some body surfing and i cannot wait to see how this thing does in the ocean or the pool this year.I like that its titanium as it adds some character and stand out to other people's apple watches and what not.Overall great watch, definately on the expensive side but great watch!

perfect watch looks great and sthelty.no problem to see the dispay on the sun its clear and very useable and comforti love it, the best casio i ever had.delivery eas very fast and durable... came with the orignal box and all the paper work.
