Product Information

Perhaps you are not a fan of an all-digital watch, PRG 600Y-1 comes in a safari-inspired analog-digital design with big, highly distinct index and hands. This model is perhaps the best and the most affordable analog-digital protrek watch. The coolest thing about the Pathfinder is that it's solar powered. It has a thin strip of solar cells that circle around the outside of the screen that keep it powered indefinitely. Comparatively, the Vector gets about 18 months of power and the Core only about 12 months of running time. We never had a problem with the Pathfinder not absorbing enough light, both in the field and in day-to-day use. Casio claims that the Pathfinder could go six months without seeing light, pretty nice if you are someone who doesn't use their watch that much — stores it in the closet and breaks it out only now and again.
