FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
The benefit of the downsized sensor means it takes up only 5 percent of the space of the previous sensor and consumes only 10 percent of the energy, improving the resolution and frequency of altitude readings from 5m to 1m increments and from 5 seconds to 1 second respectively. This coupled with an increase in continuous compass measurements from 20 seconds to 60 seconds improves the accuracy and speed with which these features monitor nature’s elements and how they are utilized for high energy activities across the board. Along with a thermometer, the PRW6000Y also has an atmospheric pressure trend alarm that gives a notification in response to sudden swings in atmospheric pressure, to keep users constantly informed of the onset of rapidly changing weather conditions, which might otherwise be overlooked. Designed with the most innovative technological functions, the PRW6000Y also sports the following features:
PRO TREK is a line of men’s watches designed and engineered to make them essential pieces of outdoor gear including Tough Solar Power, Triple Sensor Technology (i.e. altimeter/barometer, digital compass and thermometer), low temperature and water resistance, daily alarms, a stopwatch, and more.
