I just had to get this out. As you may know, I bought a Timex GPS Watch back in January. Lately, I have been having problems with it (It resets for no reason). I dropped an email last night to the store I bought it from, Als Gifts, explaining the problem. He emailed me back this morning that he is sending me a new one and to return the defective watch once I get the replacement! Wow!

If you are looking for a GPS watch, buy it here. His prices are the best, too!

You think you got a deal! Listen to this: I ordered 10 copies of a compact disc from this one place. Not only are they overnighting them to me, they are including 10 more copies for free! How cool is that?! Wink

https://www.alsgiftshoppe.com/db/xq/frame.main/asp.key.key/qx/TimexGPSWatch.htm

On that page, is the only difference between the similarly priced watches the color of the strap? And the difference between the $133 watch (50 laps) and the $150 watch (100 laps) the number of laps that they'll recall?

Birfday is coming up soon and I need some gift hints to drop to the family.

Get the 100 lap. It has pace and distance alarms, the 50 lap doesn't. I wish I had thought about it when I bought mine (I have the 50 lap)

so glad you posted this! I'm in the market for one, and have found some good prices on some sites, and they are similar to Als's. But your recommendation because of the service makes this better.

I just recently got mine (the 100 lap) from Al's, and I can say the service is fast! I ordered a Sunday night, and had the watch by Wed. I was impressed.
