The Ultimate Guide to All PROTREKs — composed by Experts
The Climber Line Digital series, which realizes the concept of the Climber Line with a digital model, will be launched from summer 2020. The first to appear is the “PRW-30”. The compact case size of 51.6mm x 45.2mm x 12.3mm and the weight of only 66g are realized. As you can see from the bezel comparison photo, it is clearly smaller than the PRW-300.
And the important concept of Climber Line is further enhanced. A new LCD screen (STN liquid crystal) has been adopted to enhance the contrast, and the display font has been redesigned in bold to improve “visibility”.
The direct measurement buttons for “azimuth, pressure / temperature, altitude” on the right side of the case are also large and easy to press, ensuring good “operability”. In addition, it is equipped with a multi-band 6 compatible radio clock, tough solar, sunrise and sunset time display. Water resistant to 10 atm with a low temperature specification of -10 ° C.
