http://www.youtube.com/ro7477 - Review on the Casio Protrek Pathfinder PRG-240 (Army) watch and its features.
Here are all the individual features in detail for this Casio Protrek 240 - 1BER watch:
-Full-Auto Illuminator
Automatically deactivates the Auto EL backlight function when surrounding light is sufficient, and activates it under dim light or dark conditions.
- Low-temperature resistant (-10 °C)
Even temperatures as low as -10 °C have no effect on this watch.
- Solar Power
A solar cell provides power for operation.
-Duplex LCD
Giving you a constant overview: Elements on the display are distinguished from one another using colour. This is achieved using different coloured layers placed on top of one another, allowing information to be displayed more clearly.
- Digital-compass
A built-in direction sensor detecs the magnetic north.
- 10,000 m/32,000 ft Altimeter
A pressure sensor detects changes in the air pressure and converts the result into an altitude up to 10,000 m.
- Height Gain
The height gain sums all the meters you have climbed in a session, so that you can see at a glance the total ascent on a tour.
- Sunrise/sunset display
After entering the geographical location, sunrise and sunset times can be displayed for any given date.
- Barometer (260/1100)
A special sensor measures the air pressure (measuring range: 260/1100 hPa) and presents this on the display in the form of a symbol. This enables early detection of weather trends.
- Thermometer (-10°C / +60°C)
A sensor measures the ambient temperature around the watch and displays it in °C (-10°C /+60°C).
- Altimeter data memory
Depending on the model, up to 40 sets of elevation data can be stored in the watch's data memory and re-accessed at any time. Each of these data sets consists of a measured altitude as well as the date and time. In addition to the individual altitudes, the maximum and minimum altitudes during a measurement are also stored.
- World time function
Displays the current time in major cities and specific areas around the world.
- Stopwatch function - 1/100 sec. - 24 hours
Elapsed time, split time and final time are measured with 1/100-sec accuracy. The watch can measure times of up to 24 hours.
- Timer - 1/1 min. - 24 hours
For fans of precision: the countdown timers help you to remember specific or recurring events by giving off an audible signal at a preset time. The time can be set to the nearest minute and up to 24 hours in advance. Ideal for people who need to take medicines every day or those who do interval training.
- 5 daily alarms
The daily alarm reminds you about recurring events with an acoustic signal at the time you have set. You can also activate hourly time signal that indicates each full hour. This model has 5 independent alarms for flexible reminders of important appointments.
- Button tones on/off
The button tones for using the mode button can be turned off. This means that the watch no longer beeps when switching from one function to another. Preset alarm or countdown timers remain active when the button tones are deactivated.
- Automatic calendar
Once set, the automatic calendar always displays the correct date.
- Direction Bezel
This bezel can be used to determine approximate directions.
- Mineral glass
The tough, scratch-resistant mineral glass protects the watch against unsightly damage.
- Resin case Resin band
Natural resin is the ideal material for wrist straps thanks to its extremely durable and flexible properties.
- Water resistance classification (10 bar)
Perfect for swimming and snorkelling: the watch is water resistant to 10 bar / 100 metres. The metres value does not relate to a diving depth but to the air pressure used in the course of the water resistance test. (ISO 2281)
One cool watch!!!! Hope you find it helpful!
