Disappointments
Tom Tom Watches GPS section is still disappointing because it just records the mapping data for future use, that’s it. No route plotting and navigation is possible. Tom Tom always offers a good GPS system in their devices and their maps are free for life time. That particular USP is missing over here. They can fix it with a major firmware update in the future. Lets wait and see. There’s no official word about the pricing for either watch as yet, but both will be released this summer.
