Wahoo First Multisport Watch, the Elemnt Rival

It might be a little much for runners—unless they’re serious about cross training.

Full-Day Battery in GPS Mode

The Rival is big on battery, with a full 24 hours of juice in GPS mode—which is about double what you’d get on watches like the Garmin Forerunner 45. But, while you’ll get a solid week or two’s worth of runs between charges, the GPS’s functionality depends on where you do them. In testing, we found that the watch locks a signal fast and stays well connected on the open road, yet it frequently gets lost under heavy tree cover and around skyscrapers. Even around buildings just three or four stories tall, we found the distance and pace unreliable. For trail and city runners, this might be a model to skip for now. But if most of your miles are around the block in the suburbs or in wide-open parks, your splits will be spot on.

A radically simplified multisport watch that delivers a seamless performance advantage.

ELEMNT RIVAL Multisport Watch keeps the focus locked on your performance, not your equipment. Using the intuitive ELEMNT operating system, RIVAL delivers a simple user experience. Unique multisport features like Touchless Transition, Multisport Handover and Perfect View Zoom create a seamless performance advantage whether training or competing. Designed with a 64 color screen, ceramic bezel and gorilla glass lens, ELEMNT RIVAL not only looks great for everyday use but will also withstand your hardest workouts.
