Does anybody have the Nike+sportswatch?

There's blue and green and I was wondering if either of them are good, and do you need a chest strap??

    i have been thinking about getting one. The one i was looking at doesn't require a chest strap.

    I had the Nike watch and also got the Timex Marathon as well. I have to say that the simplicity of the Timex has me wearing it all the time. There are positives and negatives about both; it all depends on what you are using it for and how much functionality and information you want to track. Here is a website for a guy that reviews all of these items in GREAT detail Check it out and find the right fit for you.

    I have the same question. I would like to get a heart monitor/calorie burner watch. I've heard that it's more accurate if there's a chest strap. Does anyone know if that's true?

    TRUE......... I had much more accurate and consistent results from a chest strap versus a wrist unit.
