As a limited edition time teller, the On Foot Watch lets athletes race themselves against professional runners. The world record times are recorded on the face of the watch in different colours, for different running distances.
You can either be blown away by the speed of these fast-running professional athletes, or if you are competitive, you can try to time yourself against these speed demons.
Implications - Running records that are stored on the watch include ones that have been beaten in 60 seconds or less including the 100m, 200m and 400m. You can also see records that are either over or under an hour with distances that include 800m and even 100km.
