Thanks for feedback folks. Almost went for it but realised the 210 intervals wasn't up to what I use on my 405 (which still has a misted up screen despite not using it other than a wee while as a watch since Thursday). Got 410 instead for £160 with HRM from amazon. |

I have just bought a Garmin 10 for £80 from Run Online. It's for Chrimbo so I can't really comment on functions. I know it has "instantaneous" pace, no HRM, quite low battery life (5 or 6 hours, something like that), and 50m water resistance. It's essentially in the same mould as the 110 functions-wise. |

Just organised for my defunkt 405 to be replaced by Garmin.... not bad for £50 for a recon unit. Mine just came unglued and fell apart! I blame the Milton Keynes HM....... if anyone ran it then you will understand the weather was special! |

FWIW I bought the same FR410 from Amazon a couple of months ago after using weekatiepea's FR305 for 6 months whilst she was preggers. The 410 does all the same stuff the 305 does with a neater look. The touch bezel works fine for me even in wet weather, only occasionally switching screen when my jacket is soaked through, but it always records perfectly. |
