Hi All,

I'm looking at buying a watch that can track my fitness levels and sleep patterns and was hoping I could find one that is also good as a speed watch.

Does anyone know if such a product exists?

Thanks in advance, Scot.

There are plenty of options that can do that, but none that are accepted by the GPSTC. If the GPSTC is important to you than you are out of luck. If you are not concerned by that, there are many options from Sunto, Garmin, Fitbit and a few others.

I use Garmin and think it probably offers the easiest experience where you just run an app on your phone and all data just syncs automatically. No need for upload cables... just a cable for charging.

I use the Vivoactive series. These are good value, and have a touch screen which is good for everyday use, but not great for windsurfing. The touch screen is a pain when wet. I just set it up before I get wet and then lock the screen and go and sail. I think the options without touch screen are better for windsurfing (forunner, Fenix), but more $$$.

Thanks for the feedback Vosadrian, I'll take a look at the options you've put forward.
