Hi,
My trusty Oregon Scientific SE211 watch has finally died having been subjected to one rainy run too many. It had vibrating zone alerts, by which I mean, you set a lower and upper heart-rate threshold, and it vibrated upon reaching either. Great for motivation, no more fear of exhaustion pain and always a worthwhile run. Could listen to music and run in noisy environments and still know I was in the zone.
Any suggestions for a replacement? Cheaper the better. I don't want to wear a watch generally, so non-running features are worthless to me. Not fussed about GPS either.
Many thanks

There is a specific 'custom' HR alert setting but on the one time I set that to cover both an upper and lower level (rather than my normal upper level only), there seemed to be some limitation. I set the max and then the watch seemed to automatically fix the min level (I think it was 10bpm lower than the max I'd set)... rather than me be being able to set a tighter range. I've not sat and tried to investigate further though... maybe I just didn't work it out when I was out there on the road, trying to set it.
