Casio's Smart Outdoor Watch landed at CES 2016 and is a million miles from another me-too everyday watch. Designed for outdoorsy types who are looking for a waterproof (50m), shockproof and vibration proof wearable that's certified to US military standards (MIL-STD0810).
The 1.32-inch LCD touchscreen has an interesting twist. There's a second monochrome display that can be used instead of the colour panel; instead of the single day usage from the main screen, using the monochrome screen boosts battery life to a month.
Forget trying to marry this with your work attire, you wouldn't even be able to get it under your jacket cuff, let alone your shirt. It's not uncomfortable though; it's much lighter than you'd think and the chunky rubber strap provides a secure fit.
Get our verdict: Casio Smart Outdoor Watch review. The follow-up, the Casio WSD-F20 is coming in April.
