Great sport GPS, small, light, and useful!

Date of Review:  Feb 24, 2007

This thing really works

Date of Review:  Apr 2, 2009
The Bottom Line: From the casual to the serious, this is a good product for the person who enjoys exercising outside.
Review: My wife and I walk on a set course around our house usually 12 laps. About half way through, we would start loosing count of how many laps we had done. When she got me this watch, I was amazed at how accurate this watch is. We will walk 12 laps and...
