I have a 310XT it is mounted on my aerobars just above the pads.  I actually have two mounts, the other is on the stem, but I rarely use that one.

How did you mount it on aero bars without it getting in your way. I put a mount on the stem but I can't see it when in aero.

I got mine from a local shop. Asked for it specifically as a part of the build kit for my bike. I have the other version on my track bike. I looked and see them on Amazon, I'm sure you can find them online. There's other brands out there too. Shop around ad there might be something new.

Is there a way to use something like that along with bar mounted hydration?

sure, you can rum the mount on the outside of the bars if needed. Or use a torpedo style mount that attaches to the top cap on your fork. I'll be doing the cap mount set up, don't have any pics as its many months before my bike will see race duty and I have two bottles behind the saddle.

Be careful. Unless they've changed things, there are countless reviews of losing the 910 from the quick release during the swim.

Since reading those, I keep mine on my wrist. I spin it around to sit on the inside of my wrist, and it's easy enough to read while in aero.

This is what I'm worried about... Especially with all the OWS chaos at the start of the race.

Mine is on my wrist for the whole race too. I rotate it inward and cover it partially with my wetsuit sleeve to protect it during the swim and for easy wetsuit removal. I also have a super strong rubber band I wrap around it and the quick release. I rotate it inward for the bike portion so it's easy to see in aero position too. Haven't lost it yet...

The only reason it's on the QR is because I also use it for road biking. More convenient (and safer) to have it on the QR instead of my wrist.

Mounted on my wrist, face to the inside. When in aero, a slight roll of the wrist and I can see the display.

I keep mine on my wrist also.  I have it on the quick release wristband though because I also use it on my cyclocross bike.  With the commotion and banging on CX starts, I feel its actually safer on the bike than it is on my wrist.  For me, I have no concern of the watch getting dismounted from my wrist in tri swims.  Mine is extremely tight and takes some doing to rotate it off the quick release.  And in races, I surely don't want to be fumbling around switching from bike to wrist out of T2.

I mount mine between the areo bars with a piece of PVC pipe as well. Just remember to cut the tube  in a half circle where it sits on your bars so it will sit flat and be solid. Get the bike mount on EBAY, 10-$15
