nice compact size but strikes me as a fastool (fashion/tool #trademark) by design - not a bad thing as long as the functions work.

The case is making the watch, unnecessarily larger than it should be. Not their greatest design.

Ugly AF. I love my PRW50, great everyday watch, way superior to Mudmaster it shares the module with, and super comfortable on composite bracelet. This, on the other hand, I would not wear even if I was paid to do so.

 

[Rocket1991]

Interesting. Dressy.
But my money will go to other models.

 

[seadial]

An ugly misfire that looks rather blocky and bar its functions has no redeeming features.

 

[journeyforce]

I don't know. What makes this a Pro Trek other than the logo and the dial texture?

Because Casio says it is a ProTrek

This looks interesting. If they offer a positive display, I might be in

Dumpster fire.

let's throw in a poll for fun, since there hasn't been a model this divisive since the GA-2100...oh wai...

G-Central has posted an article about the PRW-6900.

Pro Trek PRW-6900 with octagonal stainless steel bezel

Casio is releasing the Pro Trek PRW-6900 featuring an octagonal stainless steel bezel with tapered edges, starting in October. The PRW-6900 evolves from the

Very cool, it is something different and new for the Pro Trek. Just wish for a version with a positive display.

 

[nicegator]

I rather like it. Some fresh design cues. make it a bit smaller and metal case- I will be in.

The PRW6900 design is not for everyone but as long as it gives you joy that's the important thing.

I have my PRW6600 on leather and in my eye it looks great in every setting - as much under my white shirt double-cuffs as my hiking waterproofs. I have had more comments on this watch than my Omega SMPO 600m.

I can't connect to the 6900 design tbh .. Octagonal-ish metal bezel? Have that already in my MTG-B2000 which is, in my opinion, a more purposeful and tooly-looking instrument.

I do love the legibility of my PRW6600. Sad to see those numerals disappear in the 6900.. I agree the PRW6900 case is different enough to become a classic, but is it loveable enough?

Regardless, the module is fantastic - this is a forever watch.

Plastic and bio-plastic is never forever

 

[SkyMustang]

that is a cool looking watch (which also means it will age quickly).

Plastic and bio-plastic is never forever

As long as it outlives me that will do well enough

The new Casiocto

The case shape is a plain rip-off from the Nixon Scout which was available about 20 years ago and is still available in used condition. I'm not interested at all in Casio ABC's but I wouldn't mind to see a PRW-6900 in full stainless steel as the Nixon Scout was (including a screwed down back plate)
