My trusty old Timex Ironman bit the dust a couple weeks ago and I finally am giving up on those watches, this one was my third in 4 years. DH thinks investing in a HR monitor might be beneficial especially to my cycling since I often perceive my effort is greater than it is. I also think it would be good for running to keep me on an even pace. I have decided on the Polar f6 (I think) as a watch. I think I want the F6 over the F4 for the backlight.

Anyone love theirs? Hate it? I am nervous about coughing up $100-115 for one!
