First of all the design. I really like it and would wear it many places, but unlike some who have posted, I wouldn't wear it to "black tie" affairs...or even close. However, I think it is an excellent balance between functional and fashionable.
Functions are easy to access and somewhat intuitive, actually more so than previous Casio's I've owned, but still not as good as the menu driven Suunto Core line. I've been able to access and adjust all functions so far, however, I've not been able to...Read more

One word; PERFECT!!!
Just buy it and forget all the other watches. This is the real deal!
There 's a nice review on Youtube, you should see that before you purchase this Casio Pathfinder. (part 1 & 2). That 's the one...
Not so cheap for a Casio but I like it and it 's waterproof.
Overall, great watch, great features on it.
I still have to study the included booklet.
Came in a nice wooden box!
Seller is the best, great service to!
