This watch goes for about $50. I see a few casios with triple sensors for around $180 to $250. Is there a large difference?

Except a compass, not really. Those watches have a larger display(case) and are a bit tougher. The sensors are s the ame as far as i know. The price difference makes this a no brainer unless you rely need a watch with a compass.

The difference is that the triple sensor's watch have a compass and is bigger, that's all

(9/4/2013) I think that may be something unique with the more expensive ones. I've found that with the cheaper ones, I have to wet my finger sometimes to get the rate to register. So far all my workouts have been rather sweaty but not overly heavy, so I guess it depends on how much sweat since I did read in the instructions not to submerge this one in water or take a shower with it or anything. I usually keep one of those dry sweat towels with me anyway (you know, the kind that wipe away your sweat but don't seem to ever get soaking wet no matter how much you wipe). I haven't had the watch for a full week yet, though, so let me put it through the wringer at my gym and out on the track a few times. Then I'll update on the results. Update: (9/18/2013) I've sweated up a storm with it and it keeps going. However, I'm a bit concerned with the accuracy of its measurements. I've had to set mine at the lowest sensitivity level possible and it still has a tendency to register almost double what a machine registers in burned calories. For example, I used the elliptical at my gym for an hour (using grips to register HR after having told it how much I weigh, etc.). I told the watch the same thing and used the finger pulse thing every 5-7 minutes during the workout. The HRs registered about the same on both the machine and the watch but the total calories burned was almost double by the time I made it to the end of the workout. My coworker bought one too, so I'm having her test hers out to see if she gets the same results then I'll report back again.

I'm not familiar with Casio either, but I've had the Yamaha for 5 years and it's been wonderful and never given me any trouble at all. It also has great sound quality and all the features you'll probably ever need.

Yes. You can download the manuals from casio support before buying, to be sure it has what you want.

Garmin sells a different watch for swimming (an extra 150$). I tried it for swimming, and it doesn't work at all. And since Garmin is not reliable (read the reviews, most of them stop working after a year or 2 just like mine did), I would go for something else. I just bough a Suunto Ambit2 S, and for 400$, you can run, cycle, swim, and much much more than a Garmin crap. Easier to use, more confortable, better software.

I can tell you why:It is the ONLY camera that allows you to take action pictures of yourself, by yourself. I have 3 for this reason, since Casio doesn't seem to build this feature (called Move In Continuous Shot) anymore. Set up the camera on a tripod, set the area where you want it to look for movement, ride motorcycle through creek and BAM, 30 pictures in one second of you doing something cool without anyone else needed. The pictures I have on all of my adventures are amazing, flying through the air, jumping into lakes (obviously not ON the bike), etc. No other camera can do this...

I have no idea. Each new model has better and better flashes. I have used Casio for years and I think they have the best dollar to performance ratio.

Having owned a Casio for nearly two years, I would highly recommend you do NOT buy. I've seen enough problems online from other owner and have my own to recommend you go to Yamaha or some other make. These are both electronic and mechanical in nature, but the bottom line is I no longer trust the manufacturer.

I'm with you, C. Henderson, I'm going to wait to see if Casio comes out with one. Also, the price should drop a little.

I have the black one. It is pretty easy to see for me,but being that your screen name is biker Bill I'm not sure for your scenario being in direct sun light. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful I can say it's a pretty good watch the barometer is off alittle bit but you can compensate for the error the tempt is way off until you take the watch off Good luck be safe shotot straight

No. You have to manually change the time. Still a great watch though, if you are looking for an altimeter/pressure sensor.

Hello Kim, I have had the Garmin S1 for several weeks now and have enjoyed using it. It has helped my game and gives me all that I need - accurate yardage to the front, center and back of the green. I am about a 17 handicap golfer and I do not need the additional features of the S2 and S3 which provide more information to include distance to hazards on the S3. The S2 is maybe $70 to $80 more than the S1 and the S3 maybe another $100. I need glasses to read the small print and appreciate the S1 with the large display of numbers. I could not effectively use the other models without putting on my reading glasses which I do not want to do while playing golf. I hope that helps - Have fun - Jack

Love it, regards to waiting you can put the camera in a multi snap mode that will take one shot right after another, battery lasts forever, bought an extra one almost never get to use it, haven't noticed or paid attention to resolution changes on zooming. I also have a Sony Cybershot, the Casio is my goto camera, Cybershot takes slightly better quality pictures when you have the time, but the battery can go dead just sitting around for a few weeks, Casio is always there and ready to go.

As far as we know, we have never tried to look for such a feature. It may be available. The Casio website has great tech support. Best suggestion would be to check there. Sorry we can't answer definitely.

Short answer yes _ don't waste your money it is not a good enough product for the price , save a few bucks, go out on a nice date, and get a pebble- lol or wait for this summer when all the new watches drop

The compass works great. I do not use the barometer so I am not much help there. I have multiple Suunto watches and this is my most favorite of them all! The alumiuium in my opinion is definitely worth it. It's touff enough to hit the trail yet nice enough to wear to work.

Both are fine calculators with similar price points and similar features. The difference is the Casio has the added touchscreen, which I personally have found very useful. I am glad I went with this and not the TiN CAS.
