I’ve always loved all kinds of outdoor activities—whether it’s hiking, trekking, cycling... I enjoy them all. So the first thing I did after starting university was to join the school’s outdoor club. I met a lot of like-minded adventurers there, and every time we went out together it was super fun, which made me even more determined to buy a PRO TREK watch. After saving up for so long, I finally had enough to get one—I was over the moon. Can anyone understand how thrilled I was to realize my savings were enough to buy the PRO TREK PRW-6000? Finally, I have a hiking watch to explore the wild with me!
The one I got is the PRW-6000YT-1, because I love all-black and chose this model. It really matches my usual deep and low-key style—it’s absolutely perfect. When I first tried it on, I found it surprisingly lightweight and sleek, not bulky like other hiking watches. The “Encyclopedia” leader of our hiking club told me it’s equipped with the brand-new third-generation triple sensor, which is 95% smaller in size, thus reducing the overall weight and thickness of the watch. No wonder it’s so slim~ The titanium alloy strap feels really comfortable too. Just in terms of design and comfort, it deserves high praise!
When my teammates found out I bought a PRO TREK hiking watch, they joked that from now on I’d lead us all on outdoor adventures where we’d eat well and have a blast exploring everywhere. And truthfully, having a hiking watch opens up so many possibilities~
Thanks to the triple sensor function of the PRW-6000YT-1, I can check the barometric trend graph before heading out to predict the day’s weather and temperature, know in advance if it’ll rain or how hot or cold it will be, then remind everyone whether to bring an umbrella or extra layers.
Out in the field, if you want to know your current location, just press the “COMP” button to find out where we are and the cardinal directions, then work with the team leader to plan the next move using the map—this makes orienteering and positioning so much easier.
One great feature of the triple sensor function is its ability to record altitude data. If our club goes hiking, I can log the elevation of each mountain we climb, which helps a lot when we get familiar with the terrain. Next time we hike that mountain, it’ll be much easier. This triple sensor function alone allows me to play such an important supporting role in the club, which makes me really happy. In this respect, I’m very grateful to the PRW-6000YT-1, because it not only helps our team during outdoor activities but also indirectly helps strengthen the bond among us members.
The PRW-6000YT-1 keeps surprising me. Even though I knew about its features beforehand, I was still amazed when actually using it. It has solar power—according to the official site, the watch face is equipped with a solar charging system. Later, when the battery was running low, I tried charging it with sunlight and it actually worked. Just place the watch under sunlight and it charges automatically. Now it’s fully powered again—this feature is so cool!
Not only that, I’ve never had the watch show the wrong time even after wearing it for so long, because it has a six-band global radio wave reception function, which automatically adjusts the time by receiving standard radio signals. So cool!!! Once during a gathering, my teammates synced their phone times with mine based on my watch—suddenly the PRW-6000YT-1 felt super premium!
It also has 100M water resistance, world time, countdown timer, stopwatch, LED light, and so many more functions—it’s basically an all-in-one. Doesn’t it feel like a practical little encyclopedia?!!
