Wristwatch With Gps

[+kbootb]

This watch has everything including GPS and compass.

 

Suunto X9

 

So now you can hunt the urban micros without looking (too) odd.

...had a hard enough time convincing my girlfriend (now wife!) to let me get my Suunto Vector!! Don't think she'll let me upgrade for, oh another 20 years or so!!

 

I have however had a wee play with one of these, and can exclusively report that it is very very cool

 

 

I do not need one, I do not need one, I do not need one, I do not.....

Little bit pricey at £500.

 

A decent watch with the same functions, witout gps, you can get for around £100.

Yellow etrek £100 approx.

 

Total £200. A massive saving of around £300.

 

I must say though, I do like gadgets and if I had the money spare I'd probably get one. Don't know how I'd explain it to the wife though.

Nice bit of kit. My reason for not getting one is that I can't tell the time.

Etrex for £100? You have been turned over mate. £60 lots of places nowdays. (Ebay)

Just making a point. Gps can be picked up for next to nothing these days.

 

Saw an etrek sell for £45. I've got a gpsr so I couldn't justify spending MORE money on geocaching. My wife wouldn't let me.

And before you say anything, yes, I am under the thumb.

1m resolution on the GPS? Ok, what does it know that the rest of the manufacturers don't..!

 

Oh, and the battery is internal, lasts 4-5 hours per recharge, and has a lifetime of 500 cycles.. and you can only have it changed by a Suunto dealer..

 

Hmmm
