Highgear TerraTech Altimeter Watch
Disappointment

Bought this watch in November and it worked great (aside from the frequent calibration, which I had read about). In the last week it has "crashed" repeatedly- temperature, barometer and altitude functions do not work or give incorrect readings (mbar reading for the barometer fxn is all over the place). I replaced the battery to reset the watch, but it still does not work. Even more frustrating is that I paid the $160 price just before it dropped to $80. I'll probably use my tax refund to do what I should have done earlier- buy a Suunto.
