唔通CU兄想換第二隻？ 咁隻405點處置呀？

如果隻 Timex 真係好野，咁咪入多隻當獎勵自己囉！

不過最主要都係睇下佢個 GPS 準唔準 + searching 時間 + 其他 software 既蒹容性！

Refer to the product page
http://www.timexironman.com/Products/Global_Trainer_GPS.htm#watchtop

Apart from the brief spec, there is a complete user guide in which we can see the detailed functions and features.

My found:
- no killer feature, all are more or less as those of Garmin 310XT (advanced users please dig out more)
- larger in width and height comparing to 310XT, which is rectangular though
- 5 configurable screens only, even less than my Forerunner 305
- use SiRFstarIII GPS chipset, same as Forerunner 310XT, 405 (vs SiRFstarIV of Garmin 110)
- battery life (as told) 15 hours vs 20 of 310XT
- and the dial is way too busy to my preference

On page 7 of the user guide, a table shows all the performance data we can put onto the screens. Good to have a look to see if what we want are there.

price USD 325 @ REI
vs USD 320 for 310XT @ebay

happy shopping!

Size:double size of 405
gps: gps enable for all recording
        Chip is not the latest version
swim: under water cause signal lost
Except the above, that's good!
It is made in Taiwan.
For Taiwan product, I prefer 環天.
My ideal one is with the latest gps chip that makes the size of the watch gets small, current slipt time, accumlative time recod display.  I need to wait.
There is some hi tech version which is sold in japan only eg touch screen timed sport watch which my running friend told me. I will check when I will be in japan in Aug.  If you get the watch, please let me have a look. Thanks!

點解唔揀StarIV？ 可以remove jammers 同interferrence，準d架!  諗下Forerunner110 啦! 佢係用StarIV架! 團購今天0900時截止。
