Description of Highgear TerraTech Altimeter Watch:
Anyone who doesn't think an altimeter watch is a key piece of mountaineering gear has never had to navigate through a whiteout. Those who have know that the Highgear TerraTech Altimeter Watch can mean the difference between making it back to camp and an open bivy. Thanks to a highly accurate one-meter resolution, the TerraTech Altimeter Watch increases the chances that you'll find the right descent route and not end up rapping over some gigantic face and sharing a one-butt ledge with your climbing partner. This Highgear watch also includes a barometer to help you track weather and avoid getting caught in crappy conditions to begin with.

Bottom Line: Unless you have a fondness for open bivies and frozen toes, get yourself the Highgear TerraTech Altimeter Watch.

Amazing Watch   01-24-08

This is a sweet deal. My friend was bragging about his $700 Tissot watch, and then I asked him, does it have an altimeter? Does it have a Barometer? What about a timer/stopwatch? Light? Thermometer? He said no to all three… It has large easy to read numbers, good durable materials. It has a light that is kind of dim, but still serves its purpose. Of course to use the thermometer, you have to take it off your wrist for a few minutes. Band is easy to adjust, and still comfortable (I have small wrists). Truth is, not many outdoors watches have all of these in one package. I have gotten all sorts of compliments on this one.

Great bundle   02-20-08

Have to say is my first altimeter watch i owned but it was put to the test on freezing temperatures for 2 days ranging from ( -17 to -5 max C it was attached to my backpack shoulder belt ) and it worked like a charm , the altimeter worked perfect the barometer had an minute difference (compared the pressure with a meteorological station reading and it was off by 1.8 mbar ) the display is great large easy to read and materials seem to be sturdy. The compass is a great asset too just would be nice to stay bit more on then to go into standby mode after a short period . A thumbs up for a very good price and a wide range of features .

Suprisingly great product..   02-26-08

Just picked this watch up on SAC. I have been in the market for an altimeter watch for some time now. I figured I didn't have much to lose on a $61 price tag. So far I am surprisingly impressed with both the functionality and seeming durability of this little gem. It seems to have all the functionality of my buddies Suunto and designed in a user friendly manner. Since initial set-up (correct time, barometric P, etc), I have checked its' accuracy against several sources, the barometer as stated above is within 2 mBar consistantly, and the elevation within 30 feet or so. The thermometer like all similarly designed watches detects body heat, I realized that it is fairly safe to subtract 10-12 degrees F to get the correct temperature while the watch is on. I haven't had the watch long enough or put it through and outing that will truly test it, so I can only give 4/5 stars. I believe that it will prove to be a 5 star product!!
