classification of outdoor sports watches

1. Leisure outdoor sports watches

are designed for daily wear. Compared with other styles of outdoor sports watches, they have the advantages of fashion, firmness, durability and so on. In fact, they are tourist watches or all-weather watches. The focus of these watches is good appearance and low functionality. Most of them use stainless steel or leather straps, but these watches still have a certain degree of durability. Additional functions include: date, week, lighting, alarm, pointer, digital display and water resistance, and some even have built-in tidal data.

2. Professional outdoor sports watches

include functions such as altitude, air pressure, temperature and weather, and are suitable for outdoor activities with high requirements such as skiing, mountaineering, hiking and exploration. Some of them also have heart rate monitors, so they are more suitable for fitness enthusiasts and can be used for running, fitness and cycling. A watch equipped with altimeter function can provide height measurement like a hand-held altimeter. The sensitivity of digital altimeter (such as on a watch) is even better than that of analog altimeter. Its high sensitivity can provide users with more accurate height readings, but the height readings of watches are also more susceptible to environmental influences and errors.

This is because the altimeter of a watch is converted from air pressure. For example, if you sit in a room but someone opens the door, the reading of the altimeter of the watch may change. When climbing mountains, the watch altimeter must be constantly corrected according to the known altitude, which can reduce the error of altitude (usually about 4% to 5%).

most watches with heart rate monitors are the same as ordinary watches. But at their price, you will find that it has many functions, including date, week, lighting, alarm, stopwatch function, calorie calculator, etc. Most of them are waterproof.

These durable watches are very suitable for a dynamic lifestyle. They are usually water-resistant, wear-resistant, have a durable strap and have many functions.
