I picked up one of these when last on sale, and I'm very impressed with it; I was replacing a Pebble and preferred an analogue watch that tracked stuff, rather than a smartwatch. The only downside for me was the silicone strap - it irritated my skin and I had to replace it with a leather instead.

I need to stop checking this forum

Thanks OP

I had eyed this watch up from pictures of it online, genuinely didn't know it was anything other than a regular watch so the few smart features are a nice bonus. Pity about the leather straps being so expensive, would anyone know any cheaper versions not necessarily from the manufacturer that would work the same?

It's very annoying that their shopping cart doesn't show the total!!

Likewise. I haven't replaced it yet, but the silicon strap has really irritated my skin to the point where my skin is peeling where the watch sits. I must get a leather strap instead.

is the code for an extra 25% on the already discounted prices ? How would they compare to a fitbit ?

When I went to checkout it said that the code had been applied and the watch was at the discounted price.

Does this have GPS? HRM? Neither? Both?

Neither from what I could tell, the steel HR has the HR. This has steps/distance/sleep cycle/time/time to fall asleep etc in the ios/android apps.

This is what I got at the replacement, nice and thin:

Neither, but thats why I got it - I did the Pebble thing, and prefer an analogue with (some) smarts, rather than a smartwatch

I got the steel for 100 a while ago.
I he only thing putting me off the HR is the 5 day recharge. Did my head in with the fitbit.
