Been spotting some cool watches at public baths recently

I just have to get this off my chest - sorry if I ramble on.
While taking my kids to the public bath in my small town today I saw a woman (who was also there with her kids) wearing a supercool watch. I saw that she used some of the functions of the watch while in the water, and she seemed so natural with it even though it is presumably unladylike. I believe it was a Garmin Fenix http://www.triathletewall.com/wp-conten ... _watch.jpg and I so regret not complementing her on the watch when she was standing alone by the pool waiting for her kids. (Getting my smartphone to take a picture was never an option.)
Three weeks I was at another public bath (in a nearby city) with my son and there I saw a teenage girl wearing a nice g-shock. It's almost rare these days for teenage girls to wear any watch, let alone a g-shock, and doing so while taking a bath was awesome.
About a month ago I was attending a swimming class for my son when I couldn't help noticing the mother of another child. She wore what I believe was a Garmin Forerunner 10 http://www.wigglestatic.com/product-med ... h=1700&a=7, which is really big and unusual (even though I prefer the above mentioned watches) for any woman. While pretending to pictures of my son I tried to take pictures of her and her watch, but the pictures were mostly blurry. It turns out she's a colleague of my wife, and afterwards at work she told my wife she wouldn't come to swimming class anymore because her son refused to stay in the water when she was there. What a pity!
