The only non-monetary problem with this watch is the lack of maps. A notable contributor to the awesome battery life is solar charging which, of course, needs sunlight, although reasonable amounts of sunlight are assumed in the battery life spec.

The most compelling and unique feature is the claimed battery life which is simply the best on the market and gives you literally days of GPS recording life. The hardware is superbly specified, although only available in a large case size. If you value features over price, this is the best Ultra or Trail running watch you can buy.
