Wow, that was a fabulously in-depth review, very comprehensive indeed. You certainly have spent a bit of time with this watch. I have been after a Casio for ages now, been a Seiko and Citizen fan for years, and was tossing up getting a Mudman - until I saw this watch. Quad sensor and so many features and functions, almost like a smart watch but better. Your review/instructional guide was top notch, and when my watch arrives I will be re-watching your video for hands on instruction. Thanks heaps for taking the time. Cheers mate.

[@BigDogChannel]

Excellent review and walk through of the features on this watch. I bought one about 6 weeks ago and was looking for a review like this one prior to my purchase. I really love this watch. I wasn’t too keen on the strap when I got it. I don’t really like Casio straps in general. Fortunately this watch is easy to swap straps. FYI the lug width is 23mm. An oddball size which limits choice, but I was able to pick up a Strapcode bracelet that fits, and now this watch is so comfortable I find myself wearing it more and more. I didn’t buy it to be a daily wear watch, but I am really enjoying it, so it has made its way into the rotation alongside my much more expensive watches. Anyway, thanks for the review. Liked and subscribed.

[@DougFNJ]

Big Dog Thank you very much. I’ve always had the dual screen Pathfinders and this analog is a refreshing change. Especially with the digital features. I think 23mm lugs are becoming a thing. Just say the new Tag Autavia is also 23mm. Enjoy!

Heh heh thank you for watching Timothy. Those videos used to drive me nuts!

[@Spacesharkie]

Great jn-depth review! You show and explain the functionality really well. One question though, can the bluetooth be completely turned off on the watch? Also, has the indicated battery life been accurate in your experience? I’ve been using the Casio SGW-500h for a few years now and it’s great but lately I’ve been looking for something similar (including the form factor without the curved sides you now see in a couple of interesting watches with similar functions) but with a step counter built in alongside the ana-digi functionality and magnetic compass.

[@DougFNJ]

Thank you! I always like these videos to work as a resource, and I’m glad they help. These use Bluetooth low energy, no way to turn it off, but it’s not really battery consuming either. I’ve always found Casio batteries to go much longer than advertised. BUT…..with watches with these functions, you may find the more you use the functions, the battery life could be affected.

[@metalgear4199]

Loving this watch, I wonder why do you need to connect it to a smartphone when the smartphone itself has gps and any app you might need for tracking 😅

[@DougFNJ]

Just another option to use, don't need it, but its a great feature to track a hike.

[@rizwanmuzzammil499]

Thanks for the really detailed review. I have two questions. 1. What type of battery life would you expect from a watch such as this? It does not have a solar feature. Should it have one? Does Casio have a similar model with solar charging? 2. I really like the fact that it can hook up to a smartphone and that just expands the feature set. Do you know of any other brands that are similar? Again, thanks for the review.

[@dsouzacarl123]

Thank you for the great review and I really appreciate the effort! I would like to know one thing: I was impressed with the function where you record a A to B route and one you are at point B, the watch can reverse the route to help you navigate back to point A. Question: Does this require that the phone should be connected to the internet???? Asking this because we generally do not have cellular service on our trek routes. Would be great to see your response.

[@DougFNJ]

Thank you. Really happy to help. It relies on the phone GPS, it has to, for example the Rangeman with on board GPS is large and has a rechargeable battery because the GPS uses a lot of energy.

[@Vaco67]

Great review! I'm starting to see that Pro Treks are starting to lean more towards G shocks. Do they feel the same in hand? The new pro treks look awesome.

Thank you Doug! Very helpful information! Especially the app walk through. Just wondering if there is any chance to hear your opinion for Garmin instinct and PRT-B50 comparison. Or maybe could you tell me how many route logs PRT-B50 could save? Also, could I download other's gpx file and import into PRT-B50 before I start hiking? I love the "photo way points"feature, which I think Garmin does not have, but Garmin provides more personal activities records. I'm just a weekend hiker but enjoying watch my own hiking history. Thanks again! your video provides a lot of useful, and practical information.

[@WatchUP69MrRangeman]

What a cool watch, and seeing it uses the data on your phone to mark the location spots is keeping that battery lasting those 2yrs or so... and as Bluetooth doesn't use much juice so this all makes sense... it's pretty much like the GPR-B1000 but that can be used alone, but mostly everyone does carry their phones anyway and these are a lot cheaper. Quite a fast movement too I noticed... big fan of ProTreks and was my go to long before I went for a G-Shock... really liking their lineup these days... nice a bold LCD display is a win. Great review and like how you get the app to screen share... I've tried but for some reason it doesn't work... I've updated my Quicktime player and checked all is connected, but never pulls up the screen record option, only my front camera on my Mac :( very odd indeed??? Thanks for sharing and doing that outdoor part which was perfect :)) Big thumbs buddy!

WatchUP69 Mr Rangeman Thank you VERY much for the good words. I love doing these, you do incredible work with you’re specifics. The Rangeman review you did is like an interactive manual. My Rangeman review is uploading as we speak, looking forward to your thoughts. As far as the screen shot, if you pull down you’re control panel, you’ll see a screen record button. It’s like a circle with a dot in the middle. That shoots the iPhone screen as I do the review. I then airdrop it to my MacBook, drag it above the video, synchronize the time, and move the video to the right side of the screen. Let me know if you have any other questions on that. Thanks again.

[@dangesner5000]

Couple questions why does it say position failed when I'm trying to do the location indicator. How long will my first point be remembered for

[@DougFNJ]

Hmm, it should be remembered the entire trip. I wonder if you are either in an area with bad signal? Is it definitely paired when you are doing this?

[@dangesner5000]

@@DougFNJ yes it did pair for sure is there any settings on my phone that might need to be switched

[@jorgeluisfernandez2560]

Hey bro, between this and PRW-3510, which you think is better? Thanks!

[@DougFNJ]

They are both great! Definitely a choice of preference from digital to analog. The bluetooth features definitely give the PRT-B50 the edge though.

Hi DougFNJ, I am a UK viewer of this video which is great! Could you advise on the following please? If you replace the battery yourself, will that not possibly damage the water seal? Does the bezel move easily, or require a little effort. I get irritated moving them back in position. I think it's great that you seem to answer everyone's questions. I am torn between this watch and the Pro-Trek PRG 600-1CR. Which would you choose? I know that the PRG is solar, but a lot of functions use the screw in button. Many thanks Terry Davis.

[@DougFNJ]

Thank you Terry! I typically have jewelers change the battery so they could properly reseal it with the correct seals. You can order the seals off eBay or maybe Casio as well and keep it watertight. If you go into the water a lot with watches, its always suggested to get the water resistance checked annually. The bezel does move easy enough both directions, but I don't find myself having to adjust it often. I always personally prefer more functions, but that is very subjective to budget, and just buying what you need. I love Solar, I find my solar watches. My 10 year old solar watches still don't need battery changes.

@@DougFNJ Hi Doug, many thanks for your helpful advice and guidance.

[@Feynman.R]

Please tell me, is it possible to start the timer, then switch to the stopwatch, start it, and then switch to steps, and at the same time both the timer and the stopwatch work, or does the watch not support such a function?

[@sarathchandran313]

This watch don't have tough solar.. It's a big bummer for protrek line.. if it has tough solar it will be a legendary watch

[@DougFNJ]

True, on the other side though, there are now so many choices available with similar modules between Protrek and G-Shock

[@MrKeys57]

I can do all this with my phone, - to much "juggling" with this watch in one hand, and your phone in the other, but dont get me wrong - i have a good Casio Protrek 3500 abc watch, - but if i want to navigate or position myself, - i do it in a jiffy with my phone only, - nice watch though!, i love the Protrek series! greetings - Levi in sweden

[@DougFNJ]

Ive always love the ABC functions of the ProTreks. This just adds another element to activity tracking. Thank you for watching and taking time to comment

[@sambaker3752]

Hello , does this watch mesure depth ? If yes how do I find it in settings on the watch ?

[@DougFNJ]

Hey Sam, only one that I know for sure measures depth is the Frogman GWF-D1000

[@thewolfman6854]

If you had the chance to get this one or the PRG-600, which one would you go for?

[@DougFNJ]

I prefer the darker bezels on these, so this one. My favorite regarding looks is PRW-6600. Let us know what direction you go.

[@thewolfman6854]

@@DougFNJ Thanks Doug. I know the PRT and PRG are both large watches, but which would your say wears the smaller of the two?

Had a question , so do we have to take the picture in the normal mobile cam or through the app ?

[@DougFNJ]

Photo could be taken through the app

[@DougFNJ]

Thanks for watching. Warranty is typically 1 year. protrek.casio.com/support/warranty

👍👍👍

[@DougFNJ]

Thank you

[@NaturesLantern]

can you do the location features with no phone paired? or in an out of service zone?

[@DougFNJ]

The watch uses the phone for GPS capabilities. I believe you need to be in service zone, it isn't downloading maps to the phone, it is generating them. If you really want on board GPS, you could look into the Rangeman, its big, but very capable.

[@NaturesLantern]

@@DougFNJ got it thanks, I've noticed even the Garmin instinct looses most of its capabilities with no phone service which seems like these outdoor watches biggest weak spot

[@mastershifu8182]

What is the recall feature for and how to use it?

[@DougFNJ]

Recalls details from recent activity. It automatically records and time stamps it, recall allows you to scroll through that activity.

[@mattburris257]

How does this compare to a Suunto core or Traverse?

[@DougFNJ]

I haven't used the Traverse, but the biggest difference with this watch and the Core is the Analog Digital of course, and the GPS and App features definitely stand out. This watch is overall much more functional than the Suunto, but I believe the Suunto may have more accurate sensors.
