The wife wants a Garmin watch. She's not a serious runner, so I'm not going to drop 4 bills on one of these things. Anyone got any insight into the lower level Garmin watches. She wants the gps feature. But I only see that along with heart rate monitor functions and such. Are there any just watch/gps combos?
garmin 205 - pretty cheap on ebay/amazon. no HR, has GPS. use sporttracks software (free from zonefive software) not the crap that comes with the watch.
craigslist?
ebay is not your best option because bidding usually ends at around 250ish
try some stores on black friday.
She asked me for the same thing. Strange

there are a many buyitnow 205s on ebay at around $110 for refurb and $150 for new.
it's $120 from amazon
is that 205 a watch? Looks like something you mount on a bike.
i was referring to models like the 405.

it's the forerunner 205, the bike one is the edge 205. having said that, the forerunner 205 is still pretty big for a watch
Thanks everyone. Good info.
Spend the money on the watch she wants. Any money spent that promotes keeping the wife in shape should be considered an entertainment expense for you, and well worth it.
You only get to sleep with one person, don;t get in the way of her keeping fit.
