Details about the VERTIX can be found on the COROS website.

GPS-Speedsurfing.com (GP3S) and COROS worked together to develop a tailor made workout mode. This includes additional data for session verification and automatic uploading to GP3S. Further details can be found on the GP3S website.

The VERTIX is basically a more rugged version of the APEX Pro with 50% more battery life and a higher waterproof rating; 150m vs 100m.
