This watch has been in wide release for ~6 months or so now, right? How are you finding it?
Personally I want the cheapest, most bare-bones GPS watch available - I don't care about uploading runs to my computer or the software, I just want a fairly reliable (+/- 5% or so?) measure of distance that will give an average pace every mile or so.
Has the Timex met those fairly low standards so far, for you? Thanks for your help.
Soleus 1.0
I've never worn a Soleus, but the way the GPS 1.0 was rapidly made obsolete by updates has made me a little wary of it.
Still mostly interested in hearing from those who have owned the Timex watch.
I have been training with the Timex Marathon GPS all summer. Used to have the Garmin Forerunner 210 before it got stolen out of my locker in the locker room. Anyway, the GPS is just as good as the Garmin IMO. Plus its cheaper. It may take a bit longer to find sattelites sometimes, and the display isn't quite as good, but its worth it for like 100 bucks less. Very functional, no problems
You do know the Soleus 1.0 is the same model as the Timex, made in the same factory and is heaped right?
Same as the 100 dollar new balance one. Time will tell you they have better quality control, but yes, the innards are identical.
