Are You Kidding Me? The Ultimate, and it even looks cool.

As many of you know, TIMEX has been designing a GPS watch that would not just be another multisport GPS watch. It's been done, why do it again? And for those of you that did not know, TIMEX was the one that really started the athletic watch with the GPS back in the early 2000. At that time, they worked with Garmin to establish the technology. At that time, TIMEX decided that there really was not much of a market for it. Oops. Guess there is. Obviously there are a few GPS watch manufacturers out there that have capitalized on what many multisport athletes want and/or need. So TIMEX revisited the idea to come out with not another mousetrap...but something better. Here is the little I can share:

Timex® Ironman® Global Trainer™ Bodylink® System with integrated SiRFstarIII™ GPS technology measures pace, speed, distance and more in real-time, allowing athletes to measure, review and advance their performance.

Customizable displays show up to four windows of information, and advanced online training log software analyzes uploaded data across several dimensions.

The water-resistant case and long-lasting rechargeable battery prove this is the only GPS-enabled watch worthy of the Timex® Ironman® name.
