Hi Bill,

I've been using Casio's BM-200 watch for a couple of years now. What I like 
about it that it has a rolling 18 hour tendency graph that is displayed in 
the corner even when the display is in regular time-keeping mode. This means 
you can check the trend anytime you check the time without punching any 
buttons. You can flick into other modes if you want to know absolute 
pressures etc. but I find I very rarerly do - it's mainly the trend that I 
use (along with my eyes, ears, and VHF forecasts).
