Good price if you get the Forerunner 50 w/ heart rate strap, ANT and foot pod ; Watch is nice enough to wear as everyday watch ; Easy to use, great set of tools for tracking all kinds of data ; Optional bike accessory ; Garmin Connect website is awesome
For a Garmin no GPS (but not a deal breaker) ; Get the 50 w/ foot pod and heart rate monitor and ANT stick ; Cannot swim with the watch (not a deal breaker)

Garmin today announced a new fitness product, the Garmin Forerunner 50 watch. For us, the most remarkable feature of the Forerunner 50 is that…. ready for this?… it doesn't have a GPS! Instead, the device works with a "foot pod" which will track your...
The watch also comes in a form factor which looks much more like a traditional watch- not nearly as bulky as the Forerunner 200/300 series devices.
