This TomTom Multi-Sport 1RS0.001.01 GPS watch features an extra-large display for clear readouts of various swimming, cycling and running metrics. The included heart rate monitor helps you monitor the intensity of your workouts.
It’s a fairly slender (for a GPS watch) watch with a good-sized (1.5-inch) monochrome LCD display. Rather than having standard watch buttons, the TomTom has a four-way D-pad about a half-inch below the screen, on the wrist. From there you control all of the watch’s functionality, except for turning on the backlight, which is done by tapping the right-hand side of the screen. The watch itself pops out of the band and onto the included USB charger (which is also how you sync data). You can get a black and gray wristband, or one with magenta highlights. No heart rate monitor is included, but it will pair with chest straps that use the Bluetooth 4.0 Smart (Bluetooth Low Energy) protocol.
Extremely easy to set goals and the intuitive visual feedback you get on how close you are to achieving them. The vibrating alerts are great, too, since we typically run with music. It certainly has more options than most running watches, including the popular Garmin Forerunner 10.
