Michael Hines — August 2, 2011 — Fashion
Swimmers in the market for a new timepiece should take a long, hard look at the new Speedo Aquacoach. The Speedo Aquacoach is a watch specifically designed for swimmers to measure everything from strokes to calories burned.
The Speedo Aquacoach works in pools as small as 15-meters and can detect laps executed using both tumble turns and wall pushes. The watch is waterproof up to 328-feet and can store data from up to 50 swimming sessions letting you compete against your past times anytime. The watch should be a welcome piece of tech for swimmers who, for awhile, have had to watch as innovative pieces of tech were developed to help runners and cyclists measure their workouts. The Speedo Aquacoach is available on Speedo's European website now for $185.
