Bottom of Page

The GPSMAP ® 60CS is a new all-purpose unit ? packed with exciting new features and delivering the kind of colour that consumers want in their handheld GPS?s.

This lightweight, rugged, waterproof unit raises the bar to offer a 256-colour, highly reflective display that provides easy viewing in almost any lighting condition. This transreflective TFT technology provides excellent viewing while maximizing your battery life (30 hours, typical use).
