I saw this new watch from Casio - has Digital Compass, Altimeter/Barometer, 5 Alarm Chronograph, Thermometer and is 100 Meter Water Resistant

Just what the kayaker that has every thing needs. Heck, the barometer should help evaluate upcoming weather, compass is always helpful, god help me if I ever need the altimeter while paddling but it could be useful for hiking - all that in a package that never leaves your wrist.

(I know that it would be hard to maintain a course with a wrist mounted compass - I'd still suggest a deck mounted one)

Sorry, no idea what it costs.
