Garmin has a lot of GPS running watches and the Forerunner 230 and Forerunner 235 are the mid-range boss hogs. They are priced at $250 and $330 respectively, however, prices are always changing so you may want to check up on that. In fact, we've seen the FR235 as low as $257 [Check on Amazon] .
Pros:
- Built-in optical HRM
- Full color
- backlit display
- Super lightweight and comfortable
- Water resistant down to 50m
- GLONASS and GPS
Cons:
- Optical HR sensor is not great for dynamic movements
- Will not track swimming metrics
- Battery life was disappointing at 3-5 days (might be updated through software update
