This is how you make an informative review without being boring-very entertaining!
Glad you liked it!
Been wearing this since 2012. A very solid watch.
It's a solid piece indeed.
This watch it's the best alternative for mudmaster, I just bought it and it's amazing.
It's a great everyday watch! Solar means worry free 😁
Thanks for the tutorial in compass mode:)
I am wearing this watch 9 years. Still working perfectly like brand new
That's amazing! Mine has already 4 years... Still working perfect too!
Thanks for this video friend! I'm interested in this watch from almost 6.years and today I got a chance to purchase. Functionalities aside, I love the design and the Solar ability. What's your opinion on getting it as of today?
Very nice review
Hi...can you do a full review like you did here of a casio mtg g1000d please. This video is excellent.
Thank you dearly for such an in-depth walkthrough. God bless you.
Thanks for watching!
Still loving your channel! It's nice to see you share somewhat the same passion I do when it comes to tiny gear. I have several Rotrings (out of which the 600 & RapidPro, which you reviewed), several SAKnives - including a minichamp of which you did a review, and a Suunto traverse alpha - which, for me, scratches about the same itch as this ProTrek.
The more popular/mainstream gear you review the more your channel will hopefully grow. With the amount of time you spend reviewing, and the depth you go into, I feel like I would tell a shopkeep to leave me alone if he/she asked me if I wanted to "inspect/hold/trial the product", and respond with "I got all I ever wanted to know about this product from this youtube video, mate, but thanks!" :-)
Hey man, thanks for your kind words. While reading your comment I feel identified as you described it haha indeed, I guess our approach is utilitarian, are you an engineer as well?
Regarding the reviews, indeed... I try to review the things I already have as in, to give an honest opinion about them. I'll have to check what's popular out there to toss it into the mix.
Really funny the last part 😂 trust me, for everything I do, I make excel tables and compare to the minimal detail, it can get heavy haha in the end, I just go to the salesman and tell him, yeah I want that thing and when he tries to show me, with respect of course, I ask maybe a few things and seal the deal haha.
Thanks for your support! More videos coming 😁
@@m.a.s.engineeringgadgets4867 I am not an engineer, no. I work in IT and have a weak spot for little multi use or just useful things.
If you like mechanical pencils I can highly recommend the Uni Kuru Toga, it should pique your interest as an engineer as well, as its rotating mechanism is absolutely great (for writing, not necessarily for drawing thick & thin lines - which it can't do.)
I am also not surprised to hear that you're heavily into spreadsheets ^^
haha great then! Thanks for the recommendation, I will see what is about that pencil. Indeed, Excel tables are so versatile haha. Have a nice weekend!
Lovely review. Beautiful Watch ⌚️. Hope to see more in the future.
Thanks man! A really useful watch indeed 😁
What is your favourite
Casio
Timex
Seiko
33:01 thank you for mentioning the bezel, its not the best but just enough for coordinating, better use digital when navigation like you mentioned
Glad I found this video was thinking of purchasing this watch to compliment my PRW-6800 (Japan issue). Looking forward to other reviews. I do collect other brand watches even Timex, multiple complication watches, such as time, temp, compass, tide analogs also including flyback and linear chronographs.
It sounds you have a nice collection going on!
@@m.a.s.engineeringgadgets4867 thank you it’s not to bad. Not any really expensive per say. I do have a mint in the box 1966 Bulova Railroad Approved Accutron with tuning fork technology. That one I wear seldomly.
I was wanting to get my hands on a Bulova Accutron (space view). What a collectable and a classic! Nice to see you also appreciate that brand too.
@@m.a.s.engineeringgadgets4867 OMG yes I am watching one on Ebay as we speak but I just purchased another Casio PRW-6800Y-1JF (Black) and a long awaited Casio PRW-2500-R and a Casio PRW-340-1 Always wanted those Casio's. lol I've got every Timex Temp, Tide, Compass watch model they made. All still in the original boxes, don't get me wrong, I do wear them. And every model of the Times Fly-back and Linear Chronographs.. I need to stop at some point. hahahaha
Thanks for all the information!!! And yes do the review of the other watches please.
Hey thanks for your comment! I'll for sure come back with more reviews... Life has been a bit bumpy in the last months, but soon more content 😁
Thanks. I have a protrek prw-30… is better than the PRW-35?
When barometric pressure drops a storm or rain is coming in the next 2 to 6 hours
Could be as a rule of thumb
I respect your passion.
Thanks for saying so! I indeed put a lot of effort in it 😁
Is it a good build? Does it have mostly titanium/ mettle on the watch frame or resin?
The bracelet only is made of titatinum, but it's not solid titanium only folded sheet.
The watch body outside is plastic and resin only. I'm not sure if the structure is metal.
The overall quality feels good, only the bezel turns really easy as you saw in the video.
Have more questions?
great reviews 👍👍
Thanks for your nice comment!
I lked ur review❤
Should i buy ?
Promotion USD 173 new
It really depends if you like it or not... I'm wearing it right now, and I'd never get rid of it... Which didn't happen with my Samsung smart watch haha sold after a few months
Does it have a moon phase and a Tide graph?
This one in particular not. The one you refer to could be the PRW-2500T-7ER
@@m.a.s.engineeringgadgets4867 aaah...you right! Thats the one i want since it can also receive radio waves time signals!
Exactly! For sure it's a great watch as well
Does it have storm warning alarm
Sadly not, I guess you need to check the pressure diagram by yourself.
The pressure diagram in the main menu is updated every 2hs, but if you go to the barometric option, it's updated every 5 minutes.
HI CAN YOU TECH ME HOW CAN I CHARG THE WATCH WITH THE SUN PLEASE
Hey there, you have to do nothing other than expose the watch to sunlight or any light. The outer side of the bezel is where the solar panel is, this will charge the battery by itself.
Whats the sensor 4?
I'm sorry, which one you mean? It has only 3 sensors, but 4 measurements. Temperature, Compass and Barometer. The barometer serves also as altimeter.
Can this watch correctly guess the plane altimeter at 30.000 feet or because the cabin pressure set at 8000 feet. will it shows at 8000 feet?
Haha that's a cool question which I actually tried. Yes, you measure the cabin pressure. But don't panic if you measure a lower value than you'd usually have.
@@m.a.s.engineeringgadgets4867 thanks but also did u measure the altimeter? And did it give u correct measure i mean middle of the flight it should give u around 30.000 feet?
The altimeter works with the data of the barometer sensor. So if the barometer sensor is not measuring correctly, the altimeter data is also not correct.
