Will gh505/gh625xt be more targeting the runner/training shops (and resellers) I think one of the problem with the old gh615/gh625 watches was that they at least in Sweden was not available in running/sportshops so many runners don't even know it exist. I think almost every race I'm at someone asks me what I have on my wrist.

The old photo from May in the forum of gh625xt didn't have the quadview but the 4lines view so that was why I wondered about the firmware.

Hi Zingo,

It would be appreciated if you can introduce us to the dealer and our sales will visit them later on.
GH-625XT firmware scale will be as similar as GH-505 with four quand views.

Sincerely,

Geoffrey

Hi
Here is a list of some of the training shop-chains i Sweden, I have probably missed some but people will probably correct me.  I don't know the cycle/swiming chains and I do not know the distributor I think it's the distributor you want to "hit".

Runners shop chains:
http://www.runnersstore.se/
http://www.loplabbet.se/

Normal Training shops:
http://www.intersport.se/
http://www.stadium.se/
http://www.sportex.se/
http://www.teamsportia.se/

Will gh625XT be ANT based or is it still 5kHz as discussed back in may?

I think this is true not only for Sweden, but also for a lot of other countries !
There are a lot of people asking for shops to buy the watch and/or spareparts like belts an so on.
There are almost no press informations/reports/advertisings, so that most runners even don't know,
that the watch exist. If you want to increase your business, you should think about that.

Hello Hubert,

Thanks for your advice.
Because we are electronics company, we don't know the training channel very well. If possbible, could you please show us more channel information? That is why I went for Germany Euro Bike to visit.

Hi Geoffrey,

I'm just a normal customer of running equipment - I'm not deeply involved in training business channels.
What I could do, is to make a (short) list of companies, where I normally buy my equipment and maybe
also one or two magazines where I would expect some information about new/updates products.

I think, I will write a personal mail to you.

It takes a huge critical mass (read : deep pockets) for any non-European company to be able to market their products in "Europe". Whereas in the US, it may be possible to reach a huge audience by advertising in one or two major Running magazines, in Europe, each country would have its own magazine....or even several, in individual languages within one country. So above-the-line advertising may get prohibitly expensive very rapidely. Hence the GS products remain relatively unknown.

It's very difficult to make that concept clear to US Marketeers :-) I can tell, it's been my job for the last 25 years :-)

[jcatalah]

any other place to buy? currently it seems to be out of stock in UsGlobalSat. it is very strange, its imposible to find any store around the world.

On the other hand. In my case I need it must be shipping to Spain. Somebody knows a store which ship to Spain?

Thanks.

Hi Jervanheg,

European market is more complicated than US as we know. But they are enthusiastic and have passion.
BTW, Were you a magazine editor? Perhaps you can expose more information through your plenty experience.
