Grateful for any advice on a good running watch in the price range £100 to £200 that can be downloaded to Strava using blue tooth .GPS watch with reasonably quick GPS satellite connection desired
Hi Geoff, most watches should do this in one form or another. It depends what you want out the watch, there are a lot of these that come as activity trackers which act as 'daytime' watches to monitor number of steps as well as the usual running features (GPS, etc).
Have a look around and do some comparisons to ensure all the items in you want list are catered for.
I love using Strava and was looking for a new watch to replace my Samsung Gear S3 Frontier. I contacted Strava for a list of compatible watches and they gave me a list that was over three years old.
I'm still in the market for a new watch, probably go for a Garmin to unlock the linked features.

Garmin Forerunner 230 would do the job at that price range. Garmin connect syncs with Strava, it's not a direct upload to Strava but it is seamless.
You might be able to get the 235 in your budget if you find a deal.
