Meet the Garmin Instinct, a GPS watch made for getting outside when conditions are messy, and plans change. It supports GPS, GLONASS and Galileo, so you can keep your navigation locked in when you are off the beaten track. TracBack helps you retrace your route if you need to head back the way you came, and the built-in barometric altimeter keeps tabs on elevation and shifts in weather.

It covers the day-to-day stuff too. You get wrist-based heart rate, activity tracking and phone alerts, so you can keep an eye on stats without pulling your phone out every five minutes. The fibre-reinforced polymer case is built to take knocks, with MIL-STD-810 ratings for thermal and shock resistance, plus water resistance to 100 metres. Battery life is built for long trips, with up to weeks in watch mode or up to 16 hours in full GPS.

There are built-in activity profiles for things like hiking, running, cycling and paddling, so it is ready when you switch plans mid-week. If you want a tough, no-fuss watch that covers navigation, training basics and daily wear, the Instinct is a strong shout. Pick your colour, strap it on, and get moving.
