Timex Ironman Run x20 GPS
Best For: Minimalists
Like its more expensive siblings, the accurately tracks pace and distance, counts laps, and sets intervals. And that鈥檚 it. It can鈥檛 sync with a heart-rate monitor or third-party apps. But what it lacks in bells and whistles it more than makes up for with its attractive, comfortable design and easy-to-read display.聽

笔辞濒补谤听惭400
Best For: Newbies
This is the here. The GPS tracks flawlessly, the display graphics are clear, and you can choose from several data screens (think lap time, speed, and heart rate). All that in one of the smallest GPS-enabled watches out there. Bummer: syncing with third-party apps is frustratingly tricky.聽

The only caveat: the wrist-based LED heart-rate monitor isn鈥檛 quite as accurate as those on other top-flight watches.聽

Garmin Forerunner 225

Combine the 鈥檚 superb built-in heart-rate monitor鈥攚hich proved as accurate as a chest strap鈥攚ith Garmin鈥檚 precise navigation and ten-hour battery life in GPS mode, and you have the perfect wearable for long days in the woods sans phone. The native apps track activity, but we found the 225 too clunky for daily wear.聽

Best For: Triathletes聽
The has a sleek display and a stable of cool features. We especially like the midrun access to lap comparisons and the recovery advice based on metrics. Multisport athletes will appreciate its ability to measure cycling speed and cadence. Even better, it can share that data with many popular apps.聽
