The score is the sum of how well each watch can answer the four basic questions (how far, how fast, where are you, what's your cadence), plus some bonus points.
# How far you've run assumes using GPS only and is based only on [[GPS Accuracy]], not using a [[Footpod]] or [[Stryd]].
# I give 1-2 bonus points for application support and 1-2 bonus points for Optical Heart Rate Monitoring.
# Value for money is the score divided by the price (at the time I last updated the table.) Your needs may be different, so you might weight the different aspects of the watches differently, or be basing your decision on different criteria totally. Hopefully this table will give you a good starting point for your decision.

* '''Back To Start''' is a simple arrow point to your starting point, so it won't help you backtrack.
* '''Back To Waypoint '''returns you to a previously''' '''marked location using a simple arrow to point.
* '''Compass'''. A magnetic compass can help you orient yourself or the map. Without a magnetic compass you have to be moving for the GPS to give you a sense of direction.<br/>(Older Reviews: [[Polar RC3 GPS]], [[Soleus 1.0]], [[Motorola Motoactv]].)
