Just posted questions on a cheap HR for my wife when I realized I wouldn't mind splurging for some gadgets myself. Anyone have any recommendations on wrist watches with mapping? Do any use google (or apple) maps? The only device I've ever had with mapping is the Garmin Edge 800 for cycling (which, I still love and may also consider upgrading sometime, but first the watch...). With the 800 if I remember correctly, I had to buy map areas separately. Is this still/also the case with Garmin wrist devices (or, other companies too for that matter?).
Separately, how is the Apple watch? Seems very 'graphic' and easy on the eyes with the maps, however, I remember hearing in the past there were 1. issues with it Swimming, and 2. in order to get 'Maps' you needed to bring the phone along, which, sucks and I won't do it.
Essentially, would like a watch that has mapping (and the detailed maps coming with it), can use with ant+ chest strap, can swim with, and preferably the maps are colorful/detailed. Would love some opinions. Thanks.
Running is the best source of fiber that I know of...
