I've had this watch for about 3 days now and I am liking it more each day.
When I first received the watch I was a bit worried about the ability to easily read the reverse LCD display, though after a while and testing it out in bright sunlight, it is very easy to read. The features on this watch are fantastic. The manual is quite large but there is great information in there and it makes you appreciate the watch even more. Synching the watch works great, it hasn't failed yet when it auto-synchs during the night. I am very happy with this watch and have no regrets with this purchase.
Pros: 1. Tons of useful features. Compass, moon phase, altitude, Baro Pres, and tide are very nice to have.
2. Looks great with the reverse LCD screen.
3. Very comfortable and not too big like one would think.
4. All around great watch.
Cons: 1. Temperature is only accurate after taking the watch off your wrist and letting it aclimate for 15- 20 minutes (per instruction manual).
2. Bezel turns much to easily. When worn under a sweatshirt or jacket, it turns from the simple pressure
of your clothes.
These cons though are minor in my opinion and I am happy with the purchase. Enjoy the watch if you choose to buy it.

This watch has style, function and accuracy. I have Omega and Tag, they are sporty model and good watchs too but price is 10 times more than Pathfinder!? I like the color, wrist band and size. I am totally satisfied with it, and might buy if it is priced double.

This is the same as the PRG-130Y minus the Atomic sync, which you can get in other markets or source elsewhere for about $150 less (at the time of this writing the watch was $380.00 now it's about a $50 difference from the PRG-130Y), For those of us in the US who want atomic sync this is the only game in town. It is a good quality watch but construction these days ain't what it used to be. I have not yet seen anny indication of "paint" coming off like was reported on early 1300 series watches. Some elements feel cheap, namely the band, but that is easily replaced. but so far everything has held up well. I don't think you will be disappointed and it has a little edge with the just plain cool factor. I wish this watch was available in the US without having to pay for Atomic Sync and Solar Power.
You CAN switch units between metric and US on this model as well as the PRG-130Y, so if you can live without the atomic sync (I could have with a + or - 20 seconds a month accuracy) You might try to find a PRG130-Y on a secondary market. I hate to express buyers remorse (and where is my Amazon verified purchase notation Amazon?) but I feel like I paid a bit much for something that there was far too little information on, my fault for not waiting a little bit!
Still this is an excellent time piece, the reverse LCD is the best int the industry and although I have read complaints of the accuracy of the other gauges I have experienced none so inaccurate as to be a concern. I'm not climbing K@ and I think some complaints are because of improper calibration which you have to do, especially with the compass depending on where you live. Solid watch my only real gripe is the way Amazon is handling these "exclusives" which are simply rebadged Pro-Trek European/Oceana/JDM watches.
