Excellent review!!! I loved the rotating shot that allows us to see the watch from all angles and appreciate all its details. Best of success for your channel!!!
Casios are my faves! I saw this at Costco, too, and really wanted it. $100 is outta the price range for me, though! My awesome wife got me a new band for my old Casio (which has been going strong for 5 years now! It's awesome!)
+eveRide ADV zermagherd I did not respernd! I have a Gshock that I've had for about 16 years and it's still going strong :) Granted, the clear case and strap has turned into a gross yellow but I keep telling myself that it's "Vintage". haha!
About the Coordinate Universal Time abbreviation, according to Wikipedia: "English speakers originally proposed CUT (for "coordinated universal time"), while French speakers proposed TUC (for "temps universel coordonné"). The compromise that emerged was UTC, which conforms to the pattern for the abbreviations of the variants of Universal Time (UT0, UT1, UT2, UT1R, etc.)"
+MystikEssence Excellent! Thanks!
I have this watch and recommend it. accurate mostly. gainsa couple of seconds a week
This is what reply I revived regarding the altimeter : so is not triple sensor. :(
Thank you very much for your letter. Regarding your question, we can inform you the following:
The watch has only one sensor for barometer and altimeter. Basis for the altimeter is the current air pressure. The watch estimates altitude based on air pressure. This means that altitude readings for the same location may vary if air pressure changes.
We recommend that first you set a reference altitude and then you start the altitude measurement.
You can adjust the reference altitude on 0 meter or the relative altitude (if you know the altitude above Mean Sea Level). Then the watch works perfectly and adjusts its air-pressure-to-altitude conversation calculation accordingly.
The next day may be a big difference in weather so the readings height will not hold for ever.
Set the reference altitude again and it should work in the coming hours
The watch has compass, barometer and temperature, so technically it is still a triple sensor.
2018 I just bought this watch new, I say Casio does make watches that will take abuse and out last you ,can't say that for any high end Swiss watch,good review .
I just watched your review of the Citizen NY 0040 with the full lume dial and commented that I have the exact same model.
Now I have to comment on this review and say..............that I have the exact same model.
It's a great outdoor tool for the great outdoors.
Fun fact:
Utc was a compromise between the Cut (the english way) and tuc (the french way)
Hi There! I'm contemplating on getting this watch, but I have few queries. I'd predominantly be using it in a concrete Jungle, but I'd take breaks off to Himalayas. I'll be using this as my daily driver.
1) Could you trust the altimeter and go on for treks? If yes, how often should I calibrate it?
2) What is the error margin of the thermometer ?
3) Will it survive drops and daily abuse ? (I will never abuse it like what a G Shock would handle, but normal wear and tear)
Thanks
Puedes fiarte de este reloj. Tengo el 340 y tiene los mismos sensores. Yo configuré y seseteé el termómetro pero todo perfecto. El termómetro es fiable pero ha de quitártelo de la muñeca y al menos esperar 20 minutos a que se ajusten las medidas. Es muy fiable doy fe. Al igual que altímetro y presión atmosférica. Lo único que en éste 270 el bixel no es giratorio y el 340 sí por lo que marcar coordenadas es más cómodo es ese. La batería solar es brutal dura muchísimo. Y es muy resistente a golpes. Diría que como un Gshock. Respecto al agua me baño con él en Mar y piscinas y me sumergo. 0 problemas.
Lo recomiendo !
Hmm tough solar batteries need changing?If so maybe its a good idea to buy a few and keep it because i doubt you will have to change that battery for years
OMG! This model watch is soooooo sexy! I love the complications. Quartz watches are far superior in accuracy to mechanical watches. Quartz is a natural product and so is electricity. The compass is declination adjustable! How good is that? The altimeter reads to a metre! This watch tracks barometric pressure and also tells the time. In my humble opinion, this is one of the finest timepieces ever made. It would be at home in the middle of a firefight in Afghanistan, to a royal banquet dinner followed by a viewing of Cosi Fan Tutte. Such versatility, such form, such perfection! That is the Casio PRG 270 series. Possibly the best watch ever made!
And factor in the price, it is really worth it. I have been having this watch for 3 years and I have almost forgotten that it exists in my hand. It is very comfortable and requires no maintenance. It is pretty well made too. I have never been conscious of its existence in my wrist and It has faced a lot of trauma but doesn't have a single scratch. I have taken it for trekking, had bath with it in glacial water, exposed it to sea water, extreme temperatures and humidity. This is one of the best watches out there. The only feature that I would love to get is moon-phase, but again, that's just me nitpicking
Thanks for sharing! Is anyone having problems with this watches, and condensation in the screen?
@@danielgarciaacosta4758 Thanks, for responding. I took the back plate off, and the sealed was not properly placed, easy fixed! Thanks.
thanks!! thumbs up for good review
Nice one. Pro trek line need more atention. 🤙
Does it has a hourly chime ?
Great review, can you on the PRG270 1A?
No one can ever say Casio does not build good watches, they totally nerd them out and always have. Mine have taken a beating and I have only broken the case on one.
+William Zoom The first watch that I bought with my own money was a Casio BabyG. It was actually the first purchase on the first credit card I got. That was about 15 years ago. I wasn't into watches back then but I needed one as I was off to Las Vegas the next day. My girlfriend at the time just made 21 and we were headed to party.
That particular BabyG was clear with blue accents. I still have it 'till this day and it's been through much more than anything else that I have. It's been with me while surfing all around the island (and getting slammed), on many hikes, jogging, running, dirt bike riding in various states (and crashing), has been worn doing giggitygiggity time (lol), and has been on my wrist while performing in various bands in front of literally tens of people!
The watch has turned quite yellow. It feels like it's vintage. hah! It still works perfectly and is still good for swimming/surfing even though I've changed the battery a few times. Casios are great! They are meant to be worn and worn hard. If a person buys a gshock and never wears it, the resin case might bleed out and fall apart. That happened to one of mine. It was a rare, red gshock from japan. I should have worn it :( They don't like NOT being worn. I am actually going to get another gshock soon :)
+minitwatch :look into the rangeman for you next g shock. It has all of the same features of the above watch plus atomic into a G-shock. Pretty cool stuff. I think the model is GW 9400.
+minitwatch I got a 5600 c1 When I was 15 and wore it every day until the case broke when I was into my 30s and I beat it to death working in bars and getting into fights which is when the case broke. It went threw 4 or 5 bands but only 2 battery changes probably because I never used the light. I have a Tough Solar digital with a metal band as my daily wear now that I got off ebay for 20 or 25 dollars that has been exposed to solvents chemicals & oil, washing my hands 15 times a day and it still looks new. I would love to have a Wave ceptor, MR G or MT G but priorities come first.
The 5600c had a steel case. I have no idea how you would break the case on that. Do you mean the bezel broke? If so, you can get aftermarket ones on ebay.
+Pibbles 'n Bits No it was not the bezel, the case split, you could twist it like a pretzel and look inside.
great review, thanks!
Yes bro, spread the digital love! Where's da lume shot? lol :D
+kelvin pang Yeah!! I'm getting a new Gshock soon-ish!
What's the name of that tool you use to take the watch's measurements?
Digital vernier caliper
Any recommended casio g-shock or protrek for small wrists?? Thanks
Hakim Farooqi go for MUDMAN gshock. gshock and protrek have big bezel
Casio protrek prw 3000 is small enough...
is it solar powered ?
Kalandar Hosny yes
How to set barometric unit into hectapascal ?
*Hourly Charm* - 3:48 😎
i love music at the end..................................
"the light is kinda white."
yeah also kinda blue lol good stuff though.
It isn't 29.7 millibars
your in hawai i just bought a supercharger from some one there
+jay7264 Hah, ironic. I have a supercharger in my car.
minitwatch mine is a solara v6 5 speed. I'm having some issues with it though. But I can tell ya its so much more fun now
+jay7264 What kind of issues are you having? Heck yeah it's more fun! Love that instant boost and that whine.
minitwatch blew the knock sensors and o2 sensors. Check my channel so you can see it I almost got it going good though.
