Runner Gps Watch

Which running watch would be better to purchase: nike or garmin?
I’m trying to decide what watch will best suit me for my training. I’m a serious runner (75 miles a week) who runs at the collegiate level. Really, I just want a watch that gives me accurate distance, as well as mile pace (every mile if possible), and total time elapsed. I don’t care about heart rate or calories burned, I just want the basics. So between the two brands, which one has these features and is considered more accurate? I guess what I’m trying to ask is between the garmin 110 forerunner, the new nike + sportband, and the old nike gps (goes for $60), which one should I get and why?
Thanks!!
Before I would have said the Garmin but after reading reviews on the new Nike, I’m sold, review below
