The perfect climbing watch
While many climbers opt for the useful (but heavy, expensive and often overgadgetized) altimeter watches, there is a place for a humble timepiece that does not give you barometric pressure, total elevation gained in the past 2 years, and make you a latte in the morning. If you already carry a GPS, this works fine as an altimeter. If you are after a simple inexpensive watch for climbing, look for these features:
1) a good bright light that you can turn on easily, even while wearing gloves
2) a loud alarm
3) a large display
4) not much else in terms of bells and whistles
5) under $30
