The Polar lacks the altitude registration but is the most accurate on distances. It is available in white as well.
A plus for the Nike is the availability in three colours. It is clearly more of a fashion article.
The Suunto is available in silver as well as black.
Al watches can be used as a heart rate monitor as well but for some you'll have to order the sensor seperately so read carefully before you order what's in and what's out...
Below you'll find both the images and prices on amazon:
