Wired seems to truly enjoy the new Garmin Forerunner 310XT, a follow-up to their popular 405 and 305 models.

The watch is perfect for triathletes, mostly because it’s waterproof, and it’s small enough to wear out and not look like a big freak. Quoth Mr. Honan:

Garmin has shrunk the guts of this baby enough that it looks almost like a standard, if very odd, watch. Metrosexuals might give it a pass, but soul-sucking hipsters could probably get away with wearing it in public.

Not sure where all the anger is coming from, but yes, if you’re a hipster you can wear this.
