Navman R300 GPS Speed and Distance Sport Watch Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this unit to track how far I travel while walking. The
first unit received had bad segments in the LCD. Amazon
quickly sent another unit that did appear to work.
This unit takes a long time to find sattelites. Several times
it never found ANY, under clear blue sky. It just turned off
after 10 minutes. It would lose signal frequently.
The deal breaker is that when it loses sattelites, it will not account
for distance during the lost signal. Lets say you are walking/running, and the unit is logging distance. For a 10th of a mile, it loses
sattelite. When it gets sattelite back, it starts logging
again from the new point. But it does NOT add the distance
you traveled while the signal was missing. As if I teleported
to the new location. Useless.

Designed for runners, cyclists, inline skaters, and other athletes in training, this compact device keeps track of current, average, and maximum speed (kph or miles per hour), distance, pace, lap history (up to 50 laps), calories burned, and even current altitude. The watch straps on comfortably to your arm and, using a technology called "global positioning," gives you precise and up-to-the second readings on a clear and easy-to-read display. To keep you on track, the watch features pace control and a programmable target zone with a built-in alarm to alert you both when you're in and out of your target zone. Fully water-resistant, the R300 also features regular watch functions (date and time), as well as an automatic timer. Included with the watch are an arm strap, user guide, and one AA battery with a 16-hour life.
