Casio PAW1500Y-1 Pathfinder: Ultimate Solar Watch

Casio is behind some of the most exciting watches around. Not a lot of people use regular watches these days, considering the hassles of having to change their battery and how easy it’s to just use a smart-phone instead. Casio PAW1500Y-1 Pathfinder Watch is not your average watch. It’s a solar, atomic watch that offers everything one would need to find their way out of trouble. It’s powered by the sun, so you won’t have to worry about it running out of battery when you need it the most (see the unboxing after the break).

When you pay over $300 for a watch, you probably want it to be as accurate as possible and offer some real value in return. Casio PAW1500Y-1 Pathfinder does that and more. This watch is not only solar powered, it’s also water resistant as well (up to 660 feet). It features a digital compass, altimeter, barometer and thermometer, to help you find out more information about your surroundings, when you are stuck outdoors.

The watch has a scratch resistant window and provides an easy way to keep track of time and date. It even shows you moon phase and tide graph. It does have a sporty look to it. So it may not be great for business meetings (it’s a bit large too). At the same time, it has a ton of useful features for those who want to spend their time outdoors on a consistent basis. It’s powerful, solar, and gets the job done.
