Best tri training watch? (Page 3)

Another vote for 910 it was worth every penny!

I had the timex one and I ended up taking it back, after 3 swims in the pool water got in there..
Got a garmin 310xt and love it.

I have been a long-time Garmin user (205 and 305) and I have loved their products so I imagine the 910xt is awesome. However, I just bought a very lightly used Polar RCX5 for $200 (GPS pod included) from my BIL and it has been awesome. I actually used it at my last 70.3 and it worked flawlessly and I love how well it holds up in the water and how it is low profile so I can wear it as a regular watch. I probably would have paid about $300 for it and felt good about my purchase. For $200 I got an absolute steal. For $400 I think I would have gone for the 910xt but I am really enjoying the RCX5. DC Rainmaker did a very thorough review of it also, so you can check that out.

910XT. Done

I've heard too many little complaints about the 910. I just got a 310 for $169, and am happy with it so far. It is replacing my aging 305, which is 4+ years old, and has been showing its age with a few freezes and weird data output. I have a 500 for the bike, and am happy to put the 310 in my swim cap for OWS. For the current sale on the 310, it's almost too good to pass on.

If no one has said it yet ;-)

910 XT

I use it for every training session and

Even skiing, I like to see how fast I can get going.

Got the 910xt on sale a couple weeks ago from REI and am hooked. So much fun to train now that I can analyze to my hearts content. Nice to look down to wrist while running and in a glance see distance, heart rate, pace, and total time all at once (or some other custom view). Neat stuff

Sounding like a broken record... Garmin 910XT for triathletes. If you're a duathlete, you can save quite bit with the 310XT (you're really only giving up the barometric altimeter of the 910XT)
