If you're an athlete of any type, you know that a mens sports watch is one of the most helpful accessories you can put on in the morning. A mens sports watch can provide critical measurements 'of elapsed time, your running distance and pace, or your heart rate during your training. Whether you are a golfer, a runner, or a man of the sea, these sports watches can contribute to your active pursuits.
The Swiss Military Men's Sealander Diver Chronograph is a stunningly bold diver's watch in a deep blue. A blue band holds a silver toned case with three silver-toned crowns. The round blue dial has three subdials, including a seconds timer, a minutes timer, and a 12 hour timer. With large numeral markers and luminous hands, you'll be able to easily read the watch leagues under the sea. No diver's watch would be a diver's watch if it weren't water-resistant, and this watch is resistant to 200 meters.

The Tag Heuer Formula One F1 Mens Watch is a superior golf watch.

As great for the auto racer as it is for the spectator, this watch has three subdials and a date window. Resistant to both scratches and water, this watch was made to last, and features the signature unidirectional rotating bezel. Tag Heuer has been known for creating high end sport watches that are precise and beautiful since 1860.
The Kenneth Cole New York Watch Blue Rubber Strap watch is a sporty little number. The watch pops with color, with a bright blue band and a blue dial. The rubber strap is textured, and the dial has an outer black ring set against a silver-toned stainless steel case. What's also nice about this watch is that it features two subdials. Most often you see three subdials, so this is a refreshing change. The left subdial tells the day of the week, and the right tells the date. Plus, it's affordable, is water resistant to 100 meters and comes with a limited lifetime warranty.
If you're a runner, you know that all the help you can get to improve your training days helps improve your performance come race days.

Plus, you get all the features you would expect from a regular sports watch, like a countdown timer, stopwatch, alarms, and more. In addition to black, the watch comes in a black/red 'Fusion' combo or an all-red 'Red Arrow.'
The Garmin Forerunner 405 is another great option for sprinters and long-distance runners alike. Made by the company famous for its GPS gear, this watch comes built with GPS technology to measure distance, time, caloric consumption, and more. You can use the GPS mode to help navigate your way on the streets, and the training mode to track and store data on your runs. You can even create training courses. The watch is available in a light green or black.
A mens sports watch also transitions well from sports wear to casual wear, so you can wear it every day.
