	Reviews: Pssst!..Wanna buy a watch? GPS watches on test Now the summer is at an end I've decided its time to get outdoors and test some GPS units! Kicking off the test we have Globalsat's GH-625 and Garmin's Forerunner 405 GPS watches. Although both are targetted at similar markets they are very different in their implementation with Garmin eschewing a detailed display in favour of a relatively compact sports watch that could pass for a 'normal' watch. Despite its small size it still manages to squeeze in full datalogging, comprehensive training records and track pace functions etc. Globalsat on the other hand have chosen to go the whole hog and offer features that would have until recently only been available on a handheld device such as a detailed display with trail mapping functions, full GoTo Waypoint functionality, datalogging, POI capturing and even a GPS mouse function. The downside is a watch that is fairly substantial in size although still wearable. We'll be putting both through their paces including tests of the desktop software supplied by each manufacturer. Click here to discuss. Now when can we expect a watch with colour routable maps...... Posted on Tuesday, October 21 @ 13:54:08 UTC by Darren Griffin
