Suunto Wing 2 is built around the idea that safety on the road means being seen as well as hearing what is coming. Its LED lights react to movement: Suunto says they pulse with your running cadence or flash when you turn to check for traffic, and the Suunto app has light modes for running and cycling. Head Movement Control lets you manage calls and music hands-free, which helps when your hands are on handlebars. The dual microphones are designed to cancel wind noise up to 30 km/h, a useful figure for cyclists on calls. Battery life is rated at up to 12 hours, and the included powerbank adds 24 more, with a 5 minute fast charge. The rating is IP66 and the weight is 35 g, the heaviest here. Owners of a Suunto watch also get real-time stats read out during workouts. At $179 it is priced like the Shokz flagship.

Cyclists and early-morning or night runners who want to be seen by drivers as well as hear them.
