Description of Highgear Aerial Altimeter Watch:
The Highgear Aerial Altimeter Watch will satisfy any info-craving backcountry nut. With a simple touch of a button, the Aerial displays your rate of ascent/descent, the temperature, and how high you are—is in altitude, not how many safety meetings you've had in the woods. This Highgear altimeter watch is accurate to within three feet and works up to 30,058ft—just in case you want to see if the pilot's lying. During hut trips, a log book tracks all altitude readings for 10 days, and for summit pushes, preset the altitude alarm to the height of your escape couloir so you don't miss it in a whiteout. Track the weather with the barometer and thermometer, and wake up in time for sunrise with two daily alarms. Water-resistant to 50m and weighing only 1.7oz, the Aerial altimeter is ready for serious use in the vertical landscape.

Bottom Line: A hyper-accurate altimeter for the altitude junkie.

Very strong and accurate watch   12-13-06
Garrett Grove (228): rank
Despite the looks not being what I would prefer, I love the function of this watch. I never use a digital compass anyway, so I do not miss it on this. The altimeter is super accurate, and using the rate of ascent is a handy tool to figure out how long you will be hiking for. Never had any problems with it and the watch is a bit smaller then say the Suunto Vector, so for smaller wrists this is a nice option to have.

Too much watch for one man.   01-22-07
Ryan Reneau@BC.com (33): rank
This watch is easy to use as well as durable. I bought this watch for my dad for Christmas, but at first all he wanted was a regular old watch with no trinkets. Now every time we go out hunting, camping, or just out side he's telling me the altitude or the temp. inside his jacket. I think he will figure out the rest of the watch all in good time.

for a barometer style wrist altimeter this "aerial" does well---set at trail head and it's real close all the way up and down---works for me!
