    Got one from amazon and returned within 30 days the heart rate monitor and app aren't a patch on a Fitbit HR2 https://www.fitbit.com/eu/charge2?utm_source=&utm_medium=digitalmedia&utm_source=&utm_medium=paidsearch&gclid=CMO125Hb6NMCFe-d7QodUAEGTw&dclid=COrs9ZHb6NMCFYWu7QodCYgNPg

    It wins on battery, waterproof and style (I'm a guy and the smaller size was perfect, big but not ohh look I've a big watch big).

    If you pick the smaller strap size you can pick the withings up on amazon warehouse for about €115 with free 30 day return and free deliver.

    When you select the smaller one scroll down to where it says new and used and click on that. Amazon is the seller so your safe buying in case you want to return within a month.

    I have the Steel.

    For what it's worth, I got it 6 months ago for monitoring sleep and, while I have nothing to compare it to, I don't rate it.

    I'd say it's less than 80% accurate. It regularly (like weekly) estimates I am asleep long before I've even gone to bed. When it registers I'm in bed (ie. no longer walking) it registers that I'm asleep at least 30 minutes before I am.

    Their customer support is responsive, but it didn't improve accuracy.

    I got it for battery life and the fact that it looks like a watch rather than a fitness gadget. I really only use is as a watch.

    Fitbit is great for heart rate and sleep, if that's what your after sell it and get a Fitbit.
    Sleep seems to effect the heart a lot and so does food, all exercise aside.
