I own the following series of these Casio Pathfinder watches:
So I pulled all my orders matching "Casio Pathfinder Watch" from my Amazon orders on these watches for the purpose of this review. My purpose of the review is in emphasizing the quality of the Pathfinder, and the faults. I will not list all the functions, since others have already painstakingly done so very well.

Casio Men's PAG240-1CR Pathfinder Triple Sensor Multi-Function Sport Watch
The Pag-240 Has been without doubt the best in the series of Pathfinder I have owned. It is now Dec 6, 2015, and this watch has no failures, the band has no signs of weakness or wear. All function buttons operate smoothly. The watch requires sunlight every other day or exposure to a lamp. This watch has never lost power. The only notable discrepancy would be in the altimeter. Gauging it with the other listed Pathfinders, there is a variation of around 50 feet. So if your skydiving, that would be quite fatal. Otherwise, this watch has performed flawlessly. I wear this watch 24/7, with exception of switching it off with the Solar Atomic (PAW-1300Y) when charging. Which is no longer available on Amazon. When available and when purchased, I paid $500.00 for that watch.
This Pathfinder as listed below:

Casio Men's PAG40B-2V Pathfinder Triple Sensor Blue Watch :
Although I liked this watch, this watch lasted less than two years before the batteries ran dead, the watch band deteriorated and began falling apart, and the watch became totally useless.

Casio Men's Reverse LCD Atomic Pathfinder Watch #PAW1300Y-1VCR : The ATOMIC pathfinder is without doubt the most Accurate of all the series within the Pathfinder watches. It is very well constructed, it is identical to the PAG-240 with the exceptions of being solid black, and only having a 12 hour clock however, which made this a bad choice for me. It is also slightly slimmer in depth. The watch when I purchased it was $500.00. At the time the most expensive of all Pathfinder Watches. But, to this day, it still functions in every way, is accurate to the second and like the PAG240, requires only sunlight and or lamplight to charge/recharge. The Atomic Pathfinder has never ceased to function.

Casio Men's Pathfinder Altimeter/Barometer/ Digital Compass Solar Digital Watch #PAG80-1V
The PAG80 Was another decent watch in the Pathfinder series of Solar powered watches. The watch itself still functions quite well. The watch band however fell apart within two years of wear. I keep the watch in the bathroom window charging, although unwearable. And unable to find a replacement band. Although I haven't looked in years now.
I hope my experience with these watches will help you in choosing the right Pathfinder for yourself. These are really great watches if you take fairly good care of them. Just make sure you buy the Solar. If you don't, you are throwing your money away.
