Reviews Nike+ SportWatch GPS Powered by TomTom Black

How far did you go? Turns out it is further than I thought. It counts calories too but for the same run the calories on the SportWatch are different from the Fuel Wristband. This is great. Nike+ SportWatch GPS Powered by TomTom does more then my friends Garmin and he payed 3 times a much as I did.

I'm certainly a fan of the watch. Good build quality. Very simple, effective user interface.  I waited several weeks, 58 miles, and wearing everyday to review this watch. I was worried about some negative reviews but so far it has surpassed my expectations. The battery life is outstanding (several 9 mile runs and no problem) and if you turn off the GPS you can wear it for days as regular watch.

In summary, depending on the type of running you do and how much you travel, this Nike+ SportWatch GPS Powered by TomTom Black may be a great watch for you, or you may find the negative to outweigh the positive. My guess is that novice to intermediate runners would find this watch to be very good, but more advanced runners might find certain features lacking.

If you want your watch to work properly make sure to download the latest version of the software for it, the watch includes the USB cable that is used for charging and also for the update, one thing we both didn't know about was that the little apple thingy that you are supposed to put on your left foot had to be on special running shoes, I found out until we also went shoe shopping and i noticed it, it's really impressing.

The Nike dashboard is cool and I love all the stats. hard not to like it...we will see about durability but so far so good. If you want a cool lookijng, functional running watch...don't wait..get it...I chose the all black model. I would recommend this Nike+ SportWatch GPS Powered by TomTom Black to anyone that's just starting out or hase been running for years.
