The Highgear Axio Altimeter Watch tracks all the most crucial data during epic adventures far from civilization. The built-in digital thermometer and barometer with 12-hour forecast icons ensure preparedness for oncoming weather, and the altimeter records your accumulated and maximum altitude so you can prove to your friends how high you got last weekend. Hydration and altitude-gain alerts help moderate your pace while you trek to new heights.
Bottom Line: Essential features in a simple, clean interface.
Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.
Any idea if this one is at all physically smaller than the axio
Any idea if this one is at all physically smaller than the axio max? I'm trying to find an altimeter watch that is as low profile on the wrist as possible....

The lowest profile ABC watch I'm aware of is the PRX/PRW 2000 from Casio @ 11.3mm in height. The altimeters on the Casio's are somewhat limited in accuracy, however, and the resolution at 5m/20ft increments, isn't as helpful. The Suunto Observer would be my recommendation in a lower profile watch @ 14mm. I believe the Tech4o Traileader Pro is around that measurement too, and adds the unique feature of an accelerometer in a watch, which adds a new layer of functionality in measuring distance, as well as altitude, barometer, thermometer, heart rate and azimuth.

This watch and the max use the same case, so they are the same size... You might try the Axio Mini, its a little smaller... you might also check Silva's watches, coined Tech4O...

This watch is pretty cool so far. Its got a nice low profile, not too bulky and looks alright. Altimeter works good and the programming is easy to figure out.
No compass on the standard Axio. You will have to move up to the Axio Max for that feature.
