Highgear’s AXIO Max wrist watch is a simple, functional and affordable timepiece that has all the basic functions a backcountry skier could want. It features an altimeter, barometer, compass, thermometer and chronograph in a relatively light and intuitive design.

It fits neatly under my clothes and gloves – a must in my book if you’re planning to wear this type of watch for extended periods of time.
