Good, economic watch to follow tracks?
- I run quite a lot and, from time to time, I enjoy going through unknown trails.
I also like running without stopping a lot, so following a trsck with my mobile is quite uncomfortable: you need to stop, unlock, check the app (wikiloc or others), etc.- For this, I am thinking on buying a watch that allows following tracks and gives indications on what turns to take.
I have seen some super watches that even have a little map in it, but they are beyond what I would pay. I would be in aprox 200€, while those are in 600€.- Some people talk very well about Garmin Forerunner 735XT: it gives indications, it has integrated pulse in the wrist, and apparently the battery lasts over 10 h.
- However, they also mention that it is a bit old and that others may be better.
- So, taking these factors into consideration, what would be good models to consider?
- - not more expensive than 250€
- - enough battery for long trails: +10h
- - wrist heartrate
- - ability to follow tracks
