I could just buy another one, but I really want something more durable. I really need the watch to have the ability to have a second hand. Otherwise I have to wear my g-shock also (for counting patient pulse, respirations, etc)
I need durable, I dont want to spend a ton. I see the samsungfrontier is now $279 with $100 gift card at Best Buy. I like that you can have a normal looking screen and the watch looks pretty classic. Has it gotten better since hurley reviewed it? (as far as HR and fitness) The fact that it takes normal bands appeals to me.
I dont want to have to buy crappy bands that break all the time and I dont want the screen to crack. I catch watches on things all the time, I bang them on things, I am rough on them. I assume I need to buy the warranty for $59?
I would also be happy finding another fitness tracker that isnt HUGE or fragile (since I dont really need to surf the internet or call mars with my watch)
