My HRM is playing up so looks like I might have an excuse to spend a few ££.
I am a great believer in buy cheep buy twice although my Garmin forerunner has lasted years its no use for swimming and limited for cycling.
As with anything people who have experience actually using these items are better than "researchers" who are usually paid to advertise the great features.
I have come down to 3 all Garmin as reading the reviews others at the same price don't seem to keep up. I am getting heavily into triathlon now so want a Multi sport watch ( worthy of note:- I don't play Golf.)
Garmin 920xt- seems to do everything I want and a good price. Aesthetically its a training only watch which is fine and has good reviews.
Garmin Fenix 3- Is about the price of a 920 I am guessing because the 5 is coming out. I am unclear as to why I would chose this over the 920 other than aesthetics.
Garmin Fenix 5 - when it arrives but over twice the price than the 920 so hard to justify and Im not sure how much of an upgrade it will be over a Fenix 3.
