Freestyle USA Convert Watch Review

Freestyle USA Convert Watch
Average Reviews:

I use this watch when surfing and teaching surfing, so basically outside, in the sun.I have no problems reading the red display under those conditions.I see how it could be harder to read in dim light (particularly the small lettering for the day of the week), but there is a button for the light which takes care of that.The features of the watch are pretty basic, and overall I'm happy with it.Freestyle makes tough watches, and they are very waterproof.I had a Lopex for a couple of years, and it was great until I tried to change the battery myself.Don't do that - it won't be waterproof once you take the back off.

For outdoor and underwater use, this watch is great.It's tough, cheap, basic and pretty cool looking.

def. more purple/blueish than shown in the pic, especially the band.
I was even kinda disappointed when opening the box; i thought the band would be entirely stainless steel while it is not (looks too blue/gadget during daytime).
BUT it is actually a great watch/bracelet for going out, it looks great at night (without using the watch function).
kinda big and heavy yes, but it is meant to be seen and people love it.

Casio Pathfinder Triple Sensor Tough Solar PAG50T-7V Review

06:42, Posted by Michael A Copeland, No Comment

Casio Pathfinder Triple Sensor Tough Solar PAG50T-7V
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
PROS:
Looks cool, especially the compass feature which gives you a degree reading, and shows you cardinal points via LCD lines on the face of the watch.
the backlightbutton is located centered below six O'clock on the bezel, which is easy to press.

CONS:
No stopwatch!I don't understand why not.

The compass has an accuracy of +/- 11 degrees which is poor by compass standards, and shuts off after 20 seconds, so you would have to hit the button every twewty seconds to keep it constantly reading.

Product Description:
Set a course for adventure every day you wear this solar-powered Casio Pathfinder Triple Sensor men's digital watch (model PAG50T-7V), which includes a built-in digital compass, altimeter, barometer, and thermometer. Its watch case and bracelet band are made of titanium--which is nearly 50 percent lighter than steel, but 30 percent stronger. It's also particularly resistant to salt water corrosion, as well as hypo-allergenic. The digital compass displays 16 directions and has a 5-set memory capacity that captures direction, month, date, and measurements time data. The altimeter measures up to 32,800 feet (10,000 meters) in 20-foot (5-meter) increments, and it can store 50 sets of altitude memory with date and temperature. It also provides a target altitude alarm and graphing capability for target and altitude tendency.
Because it's solar-powered--charging in either sunlight or indoor light--you'll never have to deal with changing the battery. Light enters the watch through the sapphire crystal and dial, and hits a solar cell beneath the dial. Current is created and stored in the battery. The duplex LCD provides two liquid crystal panels, enabling you to select from among different display patterns.
It offers a 1/100-second stopwatch with a 60-minute measuring capacity and elapsed time, split time, and 1st/2nd place time modes. It also includes a daily alarm, optional hourly time signal, and 12/24-hour formats. Other features include a comfortable resin strap, scratch-resistant mineral crystal, AfterGlow LED electro-luminescent backlight, and water resistance to 100 meters (330 feet).

Timex Men's Ironman 30-Lap Shock Resistant FLIX System Watch #T5F851 Review

Timex Men's Ironman 30-Lap Shock Resistant FLIX System Watch #T5F851
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have been looking long and hard for a LARGE, cool-looking sport watch with a fast-wrap (velcro-style) band for a while.Most Timex's are midsize (too small for me and many men of any size) and all Casio G-Shocks that I can find have fastener-style bands.I have 2 G-shocks already and this watch easily competes with those watches (I actually like this watch better).It's THICK, it's got a LARGE face (I believe it's around 41 mm), it's got a nice-looking velcro fast-strap and it looks sharp.As another reviewer said, 'this is a man's watch.'You won't see any ladies wearing this one.

Extra pluses:* Metal band (loop) which the strap goes through is large, allowing plenty of room for the strap to go in/out quickly (not getting stuck like some other fast-wrap watches I've owned, which often leads to destroyed bands) - MAJOR improvement here)
* Since all of the features can be turned off, I can leave on just the chrono, allowing me to switch only between those the chrono and time when I hit the mode button (rather than having to switch through timer, alarm, golf mode, etc.).this is a very nice customization touch.
*It does integrate the Flix technology, so just put the watch in night mode, flick that wrist and on comes the light.

If you're looking for a large, thick, solid, good-looking, velcro stap sport watch - STOP.You've found it, and for a good price on Amazon.
