everything else: nice to have
Yet I have deliberately avoided following, to be found in other models feature:
This clock has neither compass, indicates neither Tidenverläufe even sunrise and sunset times, no lunar cycles.
Here I rely on other data sources or instruments. A contemporary OutdoorGPS device can because a lot better and more accurate position and to a amtl. Tide calendar and a mechanical magnetic compass leads, if necessary, still no way around.
Now the clock:
Very good clock high-quality workmanship, nicely packed in a wooden box with detailed operating instructions which you actually read / browse through short cross needs to identify the key assignment and thus the functional principle underlying. Handling is then intuitively. This allows all sensors temperature, barometric pressure, altitude, radio signal reception, wake-up times (5), calibrated choice of standard displays manually.
Surprised I was initially why at a digital clock today the main display, namely the time, so old fashioned (late 70s) comes along.
The established excellent readability from all angles and in various lighting conditions were to say enough!
Other manufacturers are trying to be happy as trendy. In the reviews then one reads often critical about the screen brightness and readability.
Among the features:
the work as they should or as expected.
The thermometer "worn on the arm, at most approximately reproduces the ambient air temperature, will not surprise anyone.
The one based on barometric pressure altitude display, must be constantly calibrated to reference values and the displayed height differences can be interpreted only in the context of temporary meteorological barometric pressure changes should be general knowledge.
Important a sufficiently accurate indication of the air pressure and its changes to weather changes can be seen outside in time. A trend graph is permanently displayed via selection next time.
Important when traveling: the 4Kanalsensor for radio time calibration: Many radio clocks detect namely only the Frankfurt time pulse generator which can be received only in continental Europe. In the other regions it is a clock then nothing more than a normal Quartz clock.
This clock can pick up the signals from Frankfurt, Britain, the US and Japan.
For me, a completely satisfactory instrument with outdoor - but also suitable for everyday use at a reasonable price / performance ratio.
Tip: when choosing the bracelet Option: Titanium with folding clasp or plastic with a classic pin buckle - one should consider whether the clock go sometimes elsewhere want to fix, as the arm. (Bicycle handlebar tent sky, Bootsabspannungen, headband to control columns, etc.)
