    The Chronos looks really nice. Well, the software does, I'm not a fan of the bezels or bands. The face isn't available for the F3 yet, but somebody will probably make a CIQ version.

    I'm sure somebody will buy the Chronos (I don't think Garmin's market research team is incompetent) but it's hard to imagine who. They're massively overpriced, and the battery is a little better than half what's in the regular Fenix 3. The Chronos doesn't actually do anything the F3 doesn't. It's only the looks.

    I'm buying the Charge 2 for my wife. Love my Apple Watch but she doesn't want to have something that expensive, the Charge 2 seems pretty perfect for her.

    Simple answer is : different companies use different methods for determine caloric burn. You can use five different apps and get five different numbers from the same gpx files.

    I absolutely love my Spark. Maybe I'll upgrade for Christmas :)
