Speaking of sports accessories, there is definitely a gamut of widgets and gadgets now available for athletes and sports enthusiasts. Whether you are fond of scuba diving, marathon running, or extreme adventure sports such as mountain climbing, snorkelling, and caving, you will never run out of devices to choose from.

Accordingly, one of the most important accessories that sports lovers must have is a watch. Every athlete definitely needs a dependable sports watch that can stand in extreme conditions and has all the extra features and functions such as waterproof, stop clock, compass, thermometer, etc. A sports watch is never hard to find these days because watchmakers are competing hardcore to extend the features of their watches. Just take your pick; there will always be something to suit your taste and requirements.

Among the hottest watches attracting the interest of athletes and sports enthusiasts these days are GPS watches, performance watches, and dive watches. Now, you might wonder what makes one different from the other, and what makes them great to own. To help you out, here is a glimpse of the general features of each.

1. GPS sports watch -- as the name implies, this new breed of watch is designed with a satellite navigation system. It is ideal for runners, cyclists, kayakers, and other players who need additional information as they train or play for a certain events. A GPS sports watch can help them measure and improve their performance by learning the trail and knowing their speed and distance from the finish line.

2. Performance sports watch -- sports enthusiasts who like to know how their body is performing during a hard physical activity can always rely on a performance watch. This watch can monitor one's heart rate, calorie level, and other physiological factors necessary to improve performance.

3. Dive watches -- unlike other types of sports watch, a dive watch is a specialised type of time piece that can function even at great depths. This type of watch is especially designed for professional divers and deep sea photographers because being under water may sometimes lead one to lose track of time. A dive watch is usually built with a time pre-selecting feature, as well as a backlit screen, enabling divers to easily see how long they have been under water.
