Thank you very much.

I sometimes had the same problem with my heart rate on my Fenix 6, although not often. I replaced the silicone strap with a nylon one. When I was sweating heavily – which I can do quickly and very well – and the strap wasn't tight enough, the heart rate measurement was also inaccurate.

I really like the idea, thank you. I even have a chest strap from Garmin, the HRM Pro Plus, which I bought at the end of last year because it was on sale. It's a shame, of course, because now I can only use it to measure my heart rate if I don't buy a Garmin watch, but I think it would be the same with Polar if I only bought the strap and not one of their watches, right?

The battery repair service is very interesting, which speaks well for Polar, in my opinion. Thanks for the tip!

Oh, that's good to know about Suunto. Withings looks interesting, I'll take a closer look at that. And I wasn't familiar with the "quantified scientist" either, but he seems to make very interesting videos on the subject. Thanks! :)

 

My Garmin fenix 6 Pro, which is about 3.5 years old, seems to be dying. It got hot during the last charge and hasn't charged at all since then. I replaced the battery, then the cable and the power adapter, but nothing happened. To be honest, I'm very disappointed about this, but otherwise I was very happy with the watch.

I am now looking for a replacement from Europe, although it doesn't have to be a 1:1 replacement for the fenix.

What is important to me...

  • It should be robust
  • Accurate measurements for indoor sports (heart rate, oxygen saturation, etc.)
  • Accurate sleep analysis
  • I don't want to have to charge the battery every day or even every three days; it should last a little longer.
  • Water drinking tracker
  • A pedometer that is as accurate as possible

GPS and map functions would be important to me if they are responsive and intuitive and easy to use. Unfortunately, I didn't find this to be the case with my Garmin fenix 6 Pro.

I have looked at watches from Suunto (Switzerland) and Polar (Finland). If there are other good European manufacturers, I am open to suggestions. I would be very grateful for specific model recommendations.

Ach na ja, es geht.

Kenne ich nur all zu gut, das Laster des Reichseins. Meine Bank rief vorhin wieder an, das Konto sei schon wieder voll.

Man könnte ihn auch mit hübschen Fliesen pflastern.

Die hätten den verdammten See komplett trocken legen und dann mit Chlorwasser wieder fluten sollen. Was hat ein Wels im Badesee zu suchen? Völlig zurecht erschossen! Verfluchte Tierwelt! Was bilden die sich eigentlich ein uns den Sommerurlaub so zu vermiesen?!

Thanks a lot! :)

Meine Freundin und ich wollen auch keine. Das im Café könnten auch wir sein. Wir haben beide nichts gegen Kinder, aber wir sind froh, dass es ist, wie es ist. Bei mir war der Wunach vor einigen Jahren da, da war ich noch in einer langjährigen Beziehung, die eigentlich in den letzten Jahren keine mehr war. Dann lernte ich meine jetzige Freundin kennen, die selber sagt, dass sie nie Kinder wollte.

Ich hab irgendwann für mich festgestellt, dass mein Kinderwunsch eher ein unbewusster und nie an mich ausgesprochener Pflichterfüllungwunsch war. Irgendwie wird das einem überall so von der Familie, den Freunden und der Gesellschaft vorgespielt, dass dies DAS Ziel und DER Sinn im Leben sind. Irgendwann wurde mir aber klar: Sind sie gar nicht. Nicht für mich und auch nicht für meine Freundin.

Mal schauen, wann "wahnwitziger Hodenkobold" als Gewinner gezogen wird.
