Casio’s latest addition to the Protrek outdoor range of products is again simply designed to give you the tools to measure, time, directs your adventure. This watch can handle anything you throw at it.
Casio Protrek Triple Sensor Tide Graph Tough Solar Titanium PRG130T-7V outdoor watches with built-in compass, barometer, altimeter and thermometer functions, with a tide graph and 200m water resistance added just for ocean lovers.
In addition to their triple sensors for the measurement of compass bearing, atmospheric pressure/altitude and temperature, the PRG-130 watches introduced today are also equipped with a tide graph function and 200m water resistance, which are very handy for use on any body of water.
The Tough Solar high-capacity solar-charging system, which generates power even in the low light of a fluorescent lamp, is another outstanding feature. The large metal function buttons on the side are designed for ease of operation even with gloved fingers. They are also treated with a grey ion plating finish that resists corrosion and abrasion, and a urethane surround helps make sure they do not get pressed accidentally. The watches incorporate a wide-viewing angle LCD, which make sure the data display is highly visible.
The PROTREK series of outdoor watches make the most of Casio’s cutting-edge sensor technology to measure and display all sorts of natural data. The series is extremely popular not only with people who enjoy serious mountain climbing, but also with leisure-seekers such as those who like trekking and car camping.

I have used this excellent watch from 2009. I work in offshore industry and have found it to be very useful for tide / moon data, and very accurate in compass and altitude readings and I have checked it against other precision instruments on ships and in small aircraft. The barometer indicates precisely also and I have determined that storms on the way from the chart, and when it is high/low tide.
The Titanium band is light and stylish, and it is attractive with no nonsense functionality.
Only negative is the alarm sound is very weak and useless as a wake-up alarm.
