  • I’ve also decided I want a watch to track my running rather than using a phone. I’d previously been looking at one which could play music, which would still be nice but not essential. The Tom Tom spark 3 seems to tick a lot of boxes - anyone used one?

  • I'd read that TomTom are also looking to discontinue their wearables, so not sure whether the Spark may get more buggy in the future as they stop rolling out software updates.

    Not sure if the music thing is a dealbreaker for you, but I really like the Garmin Forerunner 35. As it happens, I managed to break one of the buttons on my last one and had to buy a new one ahead of a marathon. The old one was still covered by warranty so Garmin have just posted me out a brand new one which I will be looking to sell for £100. Let me know if you're interested

  • never heard a good thing about tom toms.

    personal preference is Garmin, the 645 is getting good reviews although I'm not convinced all the features are fully refined yet (music and pay) so for my money I'd buy a forerunner 35, and upgrade in a year or so when the next version of the Fenix is out, it looks generally to tick most running boxes, although the lack of the speedy pickup of satellites missing is a bit of a shame..
