The wrist is the place an EMT will check, since that's where people wear medic-alert bracelets.
Also, the shoe models are not reliable...reason is that with a hard enough impact a person's shoes can go flying. I know it sounds insane, but a friend of mine was hit while running and BOTH shoes were thrown from his body. He's very lucky to have survived that.
I have the Elite. Love it. Wear it for running and biking. I have 2 bands...one that fits nice on my bare wrist and one for winter that fits over bulkier long-sleeves.
I also have the first strap that I over-trimmed...that really honked me off.![]()
