Origo Granite Peak Series Altimeter Watch

Origo Granite Peak Series Altimeter Watch description

Remember when you missed that key turn on your last hike and went two miles too far? Well, that wouldn't have happened if you had the Origo Granite Peak Series Altimeter Watch. The highly accurate altimeter would have provided your elevation within a foot, so you would have known when you were high enough to look for that left turn. The Granite Peak Watch's compass would have let you know that you were hiking in the wrong direction. Origo also added a barometer to this watch that would have warned you of the incoming storm. Maybe you'll bring the right tool for the job next time.

Bottom Line: You should have brought it last weekend, so bring it next weekend.

After two High Gear Altimeters breaking within a matter of months, we settled on this one for his b'day present. I personally think it's the best-looking altimeter watch out there - the stainless steel bevel gives it a dressier look but it lends itself to greater durability also. Husband also feels that it is easy to use and the altimeter has had no issues so far, though he hasn't really tested it yet (had it for a month). We would both highly recommend this watch.

I still need to take it on some hikes. But so far I love the look, feel, and quality of the watch. I'm sold!
