A perennial favorite of mine, high-function Casio ProTrek (formerly Pathfinder) watches are a must for anyone who does anything outdoors. Light, durable, and extremely reliable, these go anywhere, do anything watches are something you'll come to love if you don't already. I own a bunch of them and continue to lust for more. A great model is the Casio ProTrek PAW-2000T-7, which comes on a titanium bracelet. There is also the standard?PAW-2000 (reviewed here)?that comes in

50th birthday Incoming
Ok well its still 3 weeks to my birthday ....but i picked up this 5146 R earlier tonight from the AD and thought i would share. Its going in the safe later until my birthday (my wife insists ). Love the fact that its a full moon on the day i picked it up. I was also considering the 5205 and 5396 but I think i made the right choice for me.

Its a couple of minutes passed 9, on the 21st....
Admittedly not up to jockes standards!Need to pick one to wear, they're all set - but this procrastination is not helping me get on with the day!

WG Blue SkyD vs SS Blue SkyD - Wider SS Oyster Bracelet Makes them look different
I know there are a lot of people who don't understand why anyone would purchase the WG version when the SS version is half the price...and the watches look the same.I have stated before that looks are just one aspect.The heft and feel of the WG version is completely different and at least to me, something that gives me great pleasure over the SS one.And of course, when you look at SS vs WG vs PT..they do look different...same color white but different hues and tones as to be identifiable to a trained eye but of course not easily detectable by the public.As I stated, I am fine with that.But, there is actually a difference between the WG and SS model in terms of appearance.The newer SS model has a newly designed oyster bracelet that fits into the lugs a little wider than the PM versions. It actually looks nicer than the PM bracelet.So, as with dial color etc on other models when it comes to SS vs PM.....the SkyD may have the same dial color and sticks between the SS and PM model.....but
