Casio PATHFINDER watch - is it worth it?

[Sproles]

Looking for something to add to the watch dept. I have often wanted to have a watch that had the compass inlcuded and I have seen these and they have altimeter, compass, thermomoeter, etc.

Do these watches cut it? I am no "commando" but I would like something that is fairly sturdy and also has some good features like these apparently do.

All input is appreciated.

Hi All-

Just so everyone knows what is being discussed. Here is one example (of many) of the Casio Pathfinder for your viewing pleasure:

The 2 watches that I wear are both Casio Pathfinders (SPF-40-1V & SPF-70-1V), and I am TOTALLY pleased with both of 'em. A plus is that since they are large watches, the digital read-outs are large-enough so that I can see 'em, even with my 51 year-old eyes.:thumbup: :thumbup:
