Overviews of Casio PAW1300-1V
Featuring tough solar power, multi-band atomic timekeeping, and a digital compass, they don't call this watch the Pathfinder for nothing. This slim men's watch design from Casio features resin construction, including a 47.4-millimeter case and black band. The light green-gray dial has a digital time display and a day and date calendar. Powered by digital quartz, the Pathfinder is also water resistant to 330 feet.
Enough has been said about this beautiful, functional watch. Functionally, its a superior watch with more bells and whistles than u would ever expect from a watch (altimeter, barometer, thermometer, compass, atomic sync, solar, timer, chrono, world time EL light etc., etc.,). I would rather like to highlight the aesthetics of the watch. Because, when I was planning to buy this watch, the most important aspect i was looking for was if this watch fits my wrist right (not being bulky) and can be worn anywhere i like to wear (office, weekends, outdoors).
Love the style - Very slim (11.5 mm thickness). Though the watch face is 47.4 mm, it doesn't look all that big on my average sized wrist (probably its because of the slim form factor). Casio avoided the dual display in this watch (as opposed to the other slim pathfinder model PAW2000). Reason is probabaly since this is the first full-functional pathfinder model with a slim case and hence Casio didn't have the technology to do a dual display without compromising on the thickness of the case. But, guess what!, this has helped a bit in increasing the contrast for the display. PAW1300's display is crisp looking than it's pricey cousin PAW2000, as dual display models tend to look dull because of the overlay. And, the compromise of single display is that u won't see the big compass indicator lines, instead will see small indicators on the perimeter of the watch. To me, i will take this to improve my display contrast.
The silver colored bezel neither looks dull nor too shiny, has the right polish and gives an up-scale look for the watch. Durable and sleek construction. Very attractive when you wear it, sure is a head-turner. I have owned older models of pathfinder (PAW1200-1V) and was reluctant to wear to office due to its bulky size (14.4mm thick and 48.9 wide). But, this one I wear to office just as I do for outdoors/weekends. It fits right under the sleeve.
In all, Casio has managed to blend style with substance at the right proportion which satisfies most of us, if not all, who either want to wear this to office or casual or outdoor alike. Buy it, you won't regret it.

Review of Casio PAW1300 watch - diver7997 -
I recently recieved the watch from Amazon and was very pleased with it in the beginning. It has many functions that I wanted for backpacking and daytrips in the Cascade mountains of Oregon. As far as I can tell, the timekeeping is exact and the watch updates nightly, even while inside my apartment.
I recently set out into the foothills south of Mt Hood and wanted to use the different features of the watch to assist my explorations. The preset altimeter was off by about 400 feet(you can set it for meters or feet), so I programmed it for the altitude at my campsite. The temp gauge was also off by about 20 degrees so I set it using the gauge in my vehicle. The compass was fairly accurate, but you can adjust that feature as well.
Throughout my climb I periodically checked the compass against the topographic map of the area, and found it to be very close. However, at the peak I found that the watch showed me at 5200' when my map showed the mountain peak at 5046'. Not a huge difference, but I was a little dissapointed. I realize that the altimeter works by reading the barometric pressure so it does have some room for error. When I returned to camp, the watch showed me at 1780' when I was actually at 1600'. The temp was also off by 8 degrees. All in all I am satisfied with this product, though I would not rely on it for pinpoint accuracy. I will continue to bring it on all my future trips, though I will take the readings it gives me with a grain of salt.

As expected Casio did it again. I bought this watch as an addition. I really like how slim it is compared to some of the other models. It does just as advertised. It has a lot of features that you really need to read about in order to fully learn how to use them.
Only thing that I found is that the thermometer is off when you wear the watch, you have to take it off and wait about 5 minutes before you can get an accurate reading.

The one made in Japan. If it's made in China, you've been a victim of the great leap forward rip-off. I have worn the watch for now 1 1/2 years with no issue. The band is in excellent shape and the watch is a pure functional monster. The size is not to obnoxious fitting well and balanced. While on the Tube in London, those UK wankers were staring at it in silent jealousy, knowing I'd kick their bangers and mash if they made a silly comment. While in India, the creepy tag-alongs set their eyes on it with such intensity I became alert and uneasy wanting to ditch it in my pocket. You can have your 1 kilo Rolex and lose your life over it. With this watch, they will know...I will kick their marsala to the other side of Delhi.
