geordiegirl Dec 2016 1:12pm, 30 Dec 2016 7,897 posts	Quote Pin geordiegirl I really don't want the chest HRM, hence the 235 - seems odd that the 225 wrist HRM is found to be more reliable than the 235 one... argh I'm a Libran I don't do decisions at the best of times.... thanks SPR

Joe Hawk Dec 2016 1:29pm, 30 Dec 2016 5,168 posts	Quote Pin Joe Hawk Don't like my 235 so if anyone want it FM me. Hardly used as a running watch been wearing it as a normal watch
geordiegirl Dec 2016 1:38pm, 30 Dec 2016 7,898 posts	Quote Pin geordiegirl I find I use the HRM on the fitbit as I don't like the chest strap... do I need it is a good question, as I don't really do anything with the stats.... I did HR train many years ago and did want to get back to a proper training plan next year hence the thinking.... mmmm now more decisions.
SPR Dec 2016 1:58pm, 30 Dec 2016 23,297 posts	Quote Pin SPR Vivoactive HR GPS might be a cheaper option? DCrainmaker recommends it over the 23x but I wanted the workouts option. Alternatively, Joe Hawk might do you a decent price on his 235.
geordiegirl Dec 2016 2:05pm, 30 Dec 2016 7,899 posts	Quote Pin geordiegirl I want the full stats from the watch I use the 610 now and not sure the vivoactice would give me that? I've fm'd Joe Hawk. I'm also thinking if I am patient prices will drop again in a couple of months or unused ones will come for sale too. Thanks SPR
SPR Dec 2016 2:32pm, 30 Dec 2016 23,298 posts	Quote Pin SPR I think you might have missed the price drop if you don't go for it now. Brexit apparently means price rises in the new year. Black's have the 235 at £200 I believe. I think but can't be sure as I don't have it that the vivoactive will give you all you had on the 610 apart from the ability to do structured workouts. DCrainmaker's site is great for reviews and comparing products, do a comparison on there. dcrainmaker.com
