To get the temp correctly, you need to take it off so your body heat is not warming the watch.
If you have the time to let the watch cool down to give an accurate temp reading, then it's a very rugged, and functional watch. Added bonus - it does not need battery changes as it charges with solar.

How far out is the temp in general terms?

OK to be blunt, its ugly

Like the current owner

I have a Casio Eco trek (for close to 20 years)

Bulletproof and to be honest looks it does Alt, Compass, Barometer temp etc. To be honest the Baro was the most useful being a Fly Fishing guide as when she dived you pretty much new the fish would go doggo for a hour or two and leaps up in the arvo meant a good evening rise. Bloody useful at a glance.

Should be able to find one of these second hand around the traps or hiding in someones draw as they were titanium chasis but weighed a ton.

@Gibo If I'm thinking what you want it for don't worry about the temp Baro is much more important (and the Alarms)and that's pretty shmeck... Could send you my old one if you want to have a tutu...

I think there is now a fishing one that does moon state that might be useful for hunting purposes...

Yip not too fussed with temp, baro is the key of course You know what I'm thinking

Yup - Like i say if you want to have a play PM me your address and I'll drop it on the courier for you.

You'll need to reset it 'cos i haven't since I replaced the battery about 6 months ago.
