Running/exercise watches

[JamesH85]

There are currently some deals on the rainforest for Garmin, I've been after one of these GPS/excise watches for a while.

Does anyone own a 235/645 or anything and have any advice on which to purchase.

I'd Ben looking at the forerunner 235/245 and some of the music models too.

I'm trying to gauge if there is anything better out there for the.money or from a competitor.

I wasn't looking to pay anymore than £250.

Have a Forerunner 245 as it seemed to be the best at the time. It did develop a screen fault but was quickly replaced by Garmin. Been pretty flawless, links to Strava, tracks sleep etc. Really great buy.

235 is pretty old now so avoid if you can.

I think the best I have found is the 245 music at Argos for £199. I'd like to take the music option so I no longer need my phone at all.

Went for the 245 forerunner music. Cheers men.
