losing altitude!,
November 4, 2009
By UFOTCL
from Back woods, off trail hiker/camper from Upstate NY
|
"altitude changes despite unchanged location! Compass too sensitive and frequently goes "off cal" (needs to be recalibrated) Barometer seems to be ok... but then why does the altimeter keep going haywire??? Temperature is usually way off! Wondering now why i kept the thing!?!"

Watch,
October 18, 2009
By Mike1947a
from Vail, Colorado
|
"Watch works great for hiking. We live in Colorado and hike 2 or 3 times a week in the summer. The watch has all the features I was looking for to use while hiking. I especially like the altimeter and the compass to coordinate the hikes along the planned route. It has all the features some of my friend’s watches have that cost hundreds of dollars more. In fact I’m a little embarrassed to tell them how little I paid for my watch including shipping – less that $100."

pain in the neck,
October 6, 2009
By Scanner
from North ID
|
"I used this last year throughout hunting season and really liked it. The elevation and compass worked well. Now it's hunting season again and I pull it out only to find that the screen is blank. I figure the battery is dead and I'll just run the store for a new one. 3 stops later, 2 watch shops included and no one wants to open it because it will "void the warranty" and "it may not fit back together correctly". So now my only option is to mail it back to the company?? This is not convenient at all and I definatley wont get it back till after the season."

It continually goes into fail mode witch is were you calibrate from. I have just said to heck with the compase feature, and continue to truelly enjoy the rest..."

So far so good,
August 3, 2009
By WorkToPlay
from Northern California
|
"Bought as a replacement for 10+ year old multi-function watch that didn't have a compass. Button layout and navigation are more intuitive; I can use most of the functions without refering to the manual. Knew the temp would be wrist temp, not air temp; subtract 10 deg to get good approximation. Altimeter is more accurate than older watch, just have to re-calibrate each day to a known altitude to compensate for barometric changes. Weather forecast is cute, but doesn't mean much when hiking and changing altitude frequently. Forecast may be more accurate when spending day at same altitude, but haven't been through a weather system yet to verify. Compass works great outdoors (matches my magnetic within a few degrees). Goes "off cal" in the truck, which doesn't matter.
Have used so far on short hikes. Weight and size haven't been an issue. A little worried about banging up or scratching the plastic case (would have preferred metal, but that's probably why it's so much less $ than others). Do like that crystal is recessed under the compass ring, so it doesn't get scratched when sticking my wrist in tight places."

Digatel weather Watch,
July 29, 2009
By Bull3126
from Georgia

"Nice product.
A bit tricky to get used to different functions at first. As long as you stay to the basics of the instruction booklet everything stays in perspective. Under the crystal several of the letters are small and hard to see.
Overall, many questions about its functions and compliments regarding size and usage.
Reasonably priced."

Great Features, bad case,
May 23, 2009
By Rummel
from McMinnville OR
|
"The watch has great features and functions well, but the case developed cracks in it after 12 months. It began to leak, which it did not at first, then the cracks became so bad it fell away from the wrist band. It would be nice if it were in a case that would not crack after time."

La Crosse Digital Weather Watch,
January 21, 2009
By bartlett
from Los angeles
|
"This is a very poor product. The temperture mode was not correct because instead of the temperture around you it gives your "Body Temp"? I could not get the Altimeter mode to work correctly. I would need to keep adjusting the Altimeter as I went up or down? A big part of the problem is that I could not get La Crosse to return any of my telephone calls. They do not have the staff to answer their phone, so they tell you to leave your number and they will call you in something like 48-72 hours. I telephoned them 3 times with NO response. I have returned the watch for a refund. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT."

Not really satisfied,

By johndoehoser
from Texas

"The barometric pressure showed rain on a cloudless day. Didn't care for the fact that I had to take the watch off of my wrist to get an accurate temp. reading. Didn't care for the watchband, the strap used to keep the excess band secured to the band itself, wouldn't stay in one place."
