Great product, a pleasure to use.

Specific hours and not for everyone. Heavy, compared to ordinary watches, because of the weight and size, their brutality is felt, if this is important to someone. But if you are a traveler, a hunter-fisherman, a climber, a military man, a yachtman, a survivalist, or just like brutal things - they are for you. Its pros: Starting the stopwatch with a separate button, you can turn it on by touch. The time of sunrises and sunsets is an insanely convenient thing. You can calculate the time of camping and overnight stay during the trip. In ordinary life, while working in the "field" or moving by car, so as not to drive in the dark. Timer 24 hours. Shockproof. Water resistance. 5 alarms. Battery. Indicators on the watch display of the battery charge level. Recharging from solar panels. Energy saving mode. Design. Perfectly cleaned with an old toothbrush plus dishwashing detergent. With its cons: There is no vibration signal, in Casio for 3000 there is, but not here! Radio synchronization does not work, the Japanese could not be stingy, but put up a tower in Hong Kong. Enough coverage for the whole of Eastern Europe. Because of this, the clock has to be adjusted periodically. The barometer is not in millimeters of mercury and is not very accurate. To measure the temperature, the watch must be removed from the hand. Only after 30 minutes the readings will be accurate, this is in the summer. In winter, they measure temperatures down to minus ten degrees. The duration of the signals in the alarm mode is short, you may not have time to wake up. Quite a complicated clock setting, you can’t figure it out without instructions. The watch has a massive case, because of this, if you suddenly have to engage in specific activities such as speleology or just like to wade through the thick of the forest into the windbreak, the watch can simply interfere with your hand by clinging to everything with its case. Unless, of course, they are removed under the sleeve, but even there they cause some discomfort, again clinging to the body for, say, the elastic band of the jacket sleeve. However, this is not critical, and you can get used to it. Due to the design features of the watch, it will not be possible to lay it evenly on a horizontal surface, let's say a table. This matters when you need to take it off your hand and put it in a backpack for some reason. Keep in mind that there should be free space in the backpack for them, as this place for them turns out to be a little voluminous, and is not always in the conditions of the same trip.
