Holy cow, wait, just looked up the "Fenix" versions.  Uhhh.... yeah... that's a little too rich for my blood.

My ancient Garmin Forerunner 235 has finally bit the dust and I'm looking for something new, would you say that's your rec?
I had a Fenix 3 HR, then replaced it with a Fenix 5 that I got on a good deal (shortly before Fenix 6 came out), and now there's nothing wrong with my watch but I've been itching to upgrade and my wife never has a clue what to buy me for my birthday, so the Fenix 8 Pro might be happening.

I've been happy with the Fenix line for as long as I've owned them, which is a little over 10 years now.

I think my baseball team is lollygaggers, though we aren't 8-16, at all, we are defeated.  Nice group of guys mostly, just old and slow, like me.  It's not really a game for old slow men though.  I think some of the other teams have some under 55 ringers too.

Our last game is tomorrow, my aim is not to get run ruled.

OK, so I just realized that we sell Garmin running watches on our ___.com website, and I get a 10% employee discount, plus I had rewards from purchasing my son's new Alienware laptop, plus the company covers up to $200 per year in fitness wearables as part of our wellness program, so my brand new Garmin Forerunner 165 is now en route and it cost me.... 43 cents.

That makes me happy.

Hell, it's not even going to be worn on my wrist and it makes me happy.

Great score!

Thanks, man. It's not nearly as nice as the Fenix models, those are fancy!

My old Galaxy lasts 3-4 days without a charge. Makes me happy.
I'm guessing what makes you the happiest is that you don't use the old galaxy much a tall
