(Timex)

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

Price $103
(Polar)

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

Price $250
(Sensoria Fitness)

Sensoria聽Fitness Smart Socks

Best For: Fixing Your Form
By embedding electronic threads and thin, surprisingly comfortable anklets into socks, helps improve your stride by measuring step count, cadence, and foot strike. The socks send data to a phone, where you can view the metrics and analyze your form.聽

Price $199
(Epson)

贰辫蝉辞苍听搁耻苍蝉别苍蝉别听厂贵-810

Best For: Data Geeks
If you鈥檙e addicted to fitness data, is your watch. It happily syncs with third-party apps via a nifty online tool, offers some of the best GPS tracking we鈥檝e ever tested, and boasts an astonishing 20 hours of battery life鈥攚ith the GPS on. The only caveat: the wrist-based LED heart-rate monitor isn鈥檛 quite as accurate as those on other top-flight watches.聽

Price $350
(Garmin)

Garmin Forerunner 225

Best For: Serious Training
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

Price $300
(Suunto)

厂耻耻苍迟辞听础尘产颈迟3听搁耻苍

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
