Amazon.com Product Description
Contemporary and sporty, the Casio Men's Pathfinder Atomic Solar Watch #PAW1100-1V was designed to compete with today's large display multifunction athletic watches. Packed with high-tech features, the Pathfinder comes with a built-in altimeter with a digital altitude tendency display graph (an ideal feature for mountaineering and alpine winter sports), a thermometer, and an atomic time keeping function (up to six times daily) that ensures your watch is always set to the right time. Don't forget that this watch isn't purely about functionality. Its bold digital dial, textured stainless steel bezel, and rugged resin band with traditional buckle clasp looks just as fitting at the cuff of your GORE-TEX winter parka or at the sleeve of your favorite button-down office shirt. The watch's reliable Japanese quartz movement is solar powered--which can accurately keep time up to five months without further exposure to light. Other technical features include five daily alarms, an LED light with Afterglow technology, a world clock with 29 time zones, a 1/100 second stopwatch that records split time, a calendar (pre-programmed until the year 2099), 12- and 24-hour formats, and water resistance to 330 feet (100 M).SimilarProduct

Customer reviews
Good Pathfinder by .. Mark (San Francisco, CA)
I picked this up at Costco for $129, which is pretty cheap compared to the Amazon price (fifty bucks less). The solar and atomic functions work very well. Seems really built well. Although it can be slightly complicated trying to figure out all the symbols, Acronyms, etc, the watch doesn't take too long to learn most of the functions. Compared to the Suunto Core I own, this watch doesn't have the nice dot matrix of the core but for for the elevation and barometric pressure, you do get a little dot matrix. With so many features: Solar powered, Atomic time keeping, baro pressure, elevation, compass, etc, the watch is a good deal and looks very cool.

WATCH REVIEW by .. C. Yanish (Kabul Afghanistan)
This is a good watch and tells time well. It straps right on my arm with no difficulties and I can look right there when I want to see what time it is and everything. Im not really in an area where it can use the Atomic ability and yet it still keeps good time, amazing. Also the other feature work well, like the buttons are very functional and cause stuff to happen on it when I push them. But, I think this is the best pathfinder, when it comes to looks, and I also like it better than most of the suunto's I see too. It gives the appearance that I am an outdoor person, which is a good thing. Oh yeah, it even has the date on it.
Good, With Odd Quirks 
by .. Nicholas T. Dedring (Brooklyn, NY)
I've been happy with this watch, and it takes getting used to a pressure-based altimeter to realize how to use it best... if you're familiar with the concept of setting a reference altitude, you'll figure it out just fine.
It's reasonably robust, though one button has seemingly shifted inward slightly, requiring a much firmer press, after a fall to a rock ledge while hiking. So be it, I can't blame Casio for me juggling my watch and dropping it, can I?
The battery life is such that I generally (almost always) leave the "auto-backlight" turned off, as it will run the battery to low at times if I sleep with the watch on, turning its backlight on when I shift in my sleep.
Two points that I can't make sense of in the slightest, which are: first off, and this truly a pure software question, for some reason the countdown timer does not go longer than an hour, which I don't appreciate; secondly, it would be fantastic if there were a single button or button combination to return to the main time screen, from which you can access barometer, altimeter, and compass functions. It is a bit irritating to have to go through six screens while looking at the watch to find your way back.
One other small note, the backlight will not stay lit when you press any button, so you need to light the backlight, press whichever button you'd like, and then re-illuminate to confirm the step taken.
The longer timer and the backlight remaining on were two points that timex got right with my cheap nearly disposable ironman digital, it's odd that casio hasn't had the sense to fix these minor points.
Don't expect the watch to update to atomic time every night... some nights it fails to hook up, and that's not really a terribly big deal...
All in all, very happy, though some aspects of the interface are a little bit user unfriendly. Also, as everyone else has said here already, the thermometer doesn't work in any meaningful way while the watch is on your wrist. If you want to spend hundreds more, get a suunto with gps, but for my money, and with the functional solar power, I'm quite happy with the watch.
One other minor point, in respect to criticism in quite a few reviews here, I've not had any issue with the excess of the band not remaining in the retaining loop, there is a ramped spot on the end of the band that seems to do a great job keeping it in place. Not sure if this is a design refinement or not, but I've not had any issue in that area.
