Casio PRG-69 – A very complete, affordable outdoor watch
Posted 29 April 2026 by Miriam Reading time approximately 2 minutesThe latest series of Casio Pro Trek PRG-69 outdoor watches is a truly complete outdoor timepiece for less than €200. Escape the hustle and bustle of daily life and head into nature with peace of mind, as it is made for rugged conditions with respect for Mother Earth.
The first Pro-Trek with an angular case
The PRG-69 is the first Pro Trek watch with a compact, angular rather than round case. This design is inspired by the rugged look of outdoor gear. The decorative ribbed surfaces of the case and buttons provide grip, even when wearing gloves. Despite its compact size, the watch features a full-size LCD screen with LED backlighting, ensuring excellent readability in all conditions.
Furthermore, the case is made of certified V-0 grade UL94 flame-retardant bio-resin. This provides extra safety when sparks fly off the stove or campfire.
Made for robust durability
The comfortable, flexible strap with an excellent fit of the PRG-69-1 and -4 is made of bio-resin and is available in black and striking orange.
The PRG-69B features a textile band made of recycled PET plastic, which complements the look of outdoor clothing.
Both eco-friendly materials support an outdoor lifestyle in harmony with nature.
The watch is charged by sunlight and artificial light and converts this into a continuous current for stable operation of all functions. This enables prolonged use of the watch, even when the sun is not shining.
Extreme outdoor functionality
The watch is equipped with the highly reliable Casio Triple sensor. Compass direction, altitude/air pressure, and temperature are measured at the touch of a button. The intuitive and fast operation provides essential environmental data for mountaineering and trekking.
The dual-layer LCD screen provides a large compass display with color graphs that clearly indicate north, south, east, and west. These graphs dynamically track the user's movements in the field, making the digital compass, which can measure continuously for 60 seconds, highly reliable.
In short, the PRG-69 is an exceptionally functional outdoor watch, packaged in a robust case that is both practical and aesthetic.
