I have the PRG-600 with the resin, rubber, DuraSoft, whatever… strap. It’s the most comfortable strap that’s come with any of my Casio products (G-Shock, Protek/Pathfinder). For such a function laden watch, it is super legible and enjoyable to look at. It’s an exceptional watch, in my opinion. Thanks for the review.
Thanks for sharing from your experience - most appreciated!
Just got the same one and I'm already in love with it. Great watch
Neat.
I've worn a tough solar Pro Trek ABC watch for over a decade of High Sierra backpacking, rock climbing, and camping. It's been dunked, bashed, beaten, frozen, roasted and all with aplomb. Very functional and reliable watches, that is for sure.
That’s awesome man! Real life experience and performance that’s hard to compare with!
Outstanding video/review as always 👏 Tremendous Casio, lots of functionality and features.
Cheers man!
I have the Casio PAG-240 and found if you set the temp approximately 10°F less than actual it fairly accurately compensates for our body temp influence on the sensor. Hope that helps.
Will depend on ambient temperature - definitely will not work if it’s hot.
Nice review 👍 never really looked at these before. Interesting. Thanks
Most welcome Neil :)
Another outstanding video, thanks !
Most welcome :)
I have PRG-650 Night Safari and it's just beautiful!! Will get myself a 600 of some sort soon. Great review!!
Thanks for that mate - all the best!
I have an old protrek model from 2007, changed the accu in 2011 (was not wearing it often). Since 2011 (wearing it almost everyday), never changed again...simply impressive!
Nice. Which model is yours?
It's a prw1200. Thanks for the review!
Love the watch, Ivan. Actually, right now, I found PRG-600-1CR (with Positive display & resin strap) at $189 from USA Amazon. When I first watched this video, I wanted to buy one, but I could not pull the trigger due to negative display (hard to see the numbers due to my advanced age, ha ha) & cloth strap (never been a fan of).
As you said, I also think that is the best looking Pro Trek watch among all the Casio Pro Trek watches and I really love the dial design and rather bit large LED display for the numbers. $189!!! you really can not beat the price.
Thanks Ivan and have an awesome day.
I totally understand what you mean regarding the negative LCD, I reckon those who say it makes no difference to readability are in denial!
$189 is an extremely good price and I might find it hard to resist picking up a second colour just because :)
I just got that exact model with positive display and I absolutely love it!
It is awesome
great review. Tnx!
Most welcome!
Tremendous functionality if you need it, really good that is solar. Its huge, like having a pocket watch strapped to your arm. The price of a plastic strap is a shock considering you can get a watch with one on for less than £20.
Thanks for the comment - I kinda agree with most of that :)
I love mine I've use it pretty much every day love the fact it's solar powered and that it's titanium as always awesome video can't wait to hear what you think about it
This model isn’t titanium though - what model is yours?
I'm getting one! Good video. Love the look and functions, maybe a NATO strap..
NATO would be nice but I’m not sure how it would work with those custom attachments…
Great review. Thank you. I just got that model with "regular LCD". Love it. Very light and to me much more comfortable than the ProTrek 3510Y I tried which had a huge sensor on the left side which kept digging into my arm. And no sapphire is no biggie. I got a screen protector for it off Amazon. Can't even tell it's there. :)
Most welcome - glad you’re enjoying yours!!
So does the World Time bezel rotate? Does rotating it change the world time zone tracked? Not sure of the functuality of a World Time bezel without a GMT hand to track two time zones.
That said I do own a ProTrek (mine has compass points on the bezel), I do like and use it and I do appreciate their functuality.
No, bezel is fixed. You choose your timezone from the bezel with seconds hand when adjusting the watch. You track second timezone by selecting world time function. You can have second timezone in the digital display or you can switch it with hometime in analog hands.
Yeah I think you’re confusing this with a GMT bezel - it isn’t, and it does not need to rotate. The second time zone is shown using the digital display.
When I first got mine, it had an alarm that would notify me of when the pressure dropped suddenly, indicating a storm coming. I must have accidentally turned that alarm off at some point and can't figure out how to turn it back on. I've scoured the internet for answers to no avail. Also I use a product called Armor Suit for case protection. It's just a screen protector that I cut to size.
The module instructions can be downloaded for free (in case you lost your copy). Look on page E-64 under "To enable or disable the barometric pressure change indicator".

I bought mine for $300USD several years ago after seeing it on Nutnfancy's channel. I bought the Safari orange one, which I was told was made for the Japanese domestic market. Last year I started seeing them at Sam's Club for $189!
Well, it’s a piece of electronic technology… I guess if that was the price performance of an iPhone model, I’d be happy!
@@PerthWAtch it has the most wrist time of any watch I own, by far. Love this watch.
Do you recommend the model prg 330, right now is with a good deal about price , I was thinking buy this one , thanks was a great video
I think the quality will not be in question - so just look closely about whether it has all the features you want, and styling you prefer.
I've always wanted one of those but I've never gotten around to it
Perhaps now is the time? :)
Very informative review 👏 you are based in Australia? Do you know if this can be purchased in Oz?
Hi mate, I’ve never seen it in stores or listed for sale in local retailers - the usual best bet is Angus & Coote. However, there have certainly been eBay sellers claiming to have stock within Australia.
@@PerthWAtch thanks for the reply. Yes seen them on ebay only, do you believe these would genuine?
I got mine on eBay
Hi, @ 12:44 the armband of your watch is Nylon/Cordura. Durasoft is a name Casio gave to their proprietary silicon-rubber straps. Nice review though!
Is it??
I think this has the same functions/module as the desert camouflage mudmaster gwg1000 that you own.
Similar but not the same - just like compared with the PRW-6100 I showed, this one isn’t officially a “tough movement” (with auto home hand position thing), and doesn’t have multi-band 6.
Does the altimeter read out in feet as well ?
Yes it does, can also change the pressure and temperature units
@@PerthWAtch very cool for us older non metric generation Americans .
You can't set the Timer without the crown action??
Not that I know of…
I still dont understand the barometer and alti meter but its a great watch
Barometer is an atmospheric pressure gauge - what’s so difficult about that??
@@PerthWAtch i know that but i still dont understand the exact reading of the normal atmosphere plus the altitude levels for example i am in Karachi what is the normal ground level on the meter plus if you are on the mountain what is the normal air level to breath we have the K2 second largest mountain so i was wondering what reading it will show?
Altimeter is just an estimate and need to calibrate with what you know your local altitude to be. Barometer is a straight pressure reading so that will accurate to your current air pressure.
It's the PRW-6800 for me.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts
Does this watch has anti scratch screen?
Nope
You can get a screen protector. Tempered glass. Can't even tell its there.
Misleading text in the video title. I watched the whole thing and never once saw a PRW3000 or even the unnecessarily larger PRW3500, the obviously best looking and most practical ProTreks of all time.
So totally wrong - this PRG 600 is much better looking than those ones. Please don’t post fake news 😂
@@PerthWAtch Kind sir, I am sorry to hear about your horrible mental illness. As we all know and is stated fact, the only good looking watches are digital. All analog watches are fashion watches, i.e useless. Best wishes on your road to recovery.
Whatever you say sir 😂
@@joesephkingston1621 3510Y was garbage, heavy and digging into arm with oversized sensor on the left side. They should have made it same size as the PRG600. So much nicer and easier to read without the inverted screen. Backlight is much better too... so yeah, your theory of "all analog watches are fashion watches" is complete joke lol
@@joesephkingston1621You must be one of those children who never learned how to read a clock-face…dumb much?
I like it but it’s sooo big .
"All the better to bash your head with my dear!" :)
Or you could go with "That's what she said"
@@PerthWAtch i literally spat out my coffee reading this man 😂😂
просто пришел написать, что стрелочные протреки - УГ! видео не смотрел.
What?
@@PerthWAtch ты чё па рюськи нипанимэ?
What?
@@PerthWAtch What?
What you say
Casio is a watch cancer

Idiot.
One of the best watch companies in the world.
Value for money.
