When I first saw the Casio Pathfinder PAW1200T-7V I thought it was the coolest ABC I'd ever seen. Couldn't believe the $350 price and proceeded to hunt it down relentlessly at a more reasonable price.

So...last night I was cruising for something different - anything and stumbled onto Casio's latest version of this - I was immediately smitten. But at $850 I dunno.

Released March 2009 - where the hell have I been?
Clearly some Suunto inspiration in screen real estate.
Sorry if you've already seen this watch.

Enter the Protrek Manaslu - PRX-2000T-7JF
Sadly not my pics.
The hunt is ON!

Thanks Tom, much appreciated.
Pretty sure I've isolated the variation that sings to me.
It's the all metallic look that got me.
Only regret is it isn't all heavy stainless steel.

These are similar John's - which I thought I wanted till this revelation.
