Casio has unveiled its second Android Wear watch and it is called the WSF-20.



Boasting the trademark Casio design, the watch has a 1.32-inch (300 x 320) display on the front. The design (which brings the word “raw” to mind) looks decidedly more rugged than other Android Wear watches with its array of screws and dials, measuring 56.4mm, and coming with MIL-STD 810G rating which brings water resistance of up to 50 meters.

One of the biggest plus points for the watch compared to its predecessor is the addition of a GPS inside, which allows you to store offline maps. The Activity app can also be used for tracking your path as you walk, cycle, hike or fish (or practically anything else). There’s also some additional sensors such as the Barometer, Compass and the Altmeter.

The WSF-20 runs on the new Android Wear 2.0 (with new watch faces), but Casio is also bringing a lot of custom features here. A new feature called “Moment Setter” which pushes notifications on things like distance covered so far or time remaining since sunset.

Another “Location Memory” marks your location using the GPS and adds a note with it. The display also has a monochrome mode and low-power GPS (which uses offline maps), which is useful since unlike other Casio watches with no Android Wear, the WSF-20 will undoubtedly have worse battery.

The WSF-20 will be priced at $500 but is also going to strike a chord with people of the adventurous type.

One thing I don't get is why didn't casio include through solar on this watch! I have a normal casio pro trek and the beauty is it never needs batteries replacing just leave it exposed to natural light and it charges!
