Fenix 6S Pro currently available for £379, so similar to a FR 745 and less than the 945 - seems like fairly good value? Anyone one here using one?

Yep, had one for the last couple of years. It's the 945 in a different shell.

I bought the 6 Pro and 6S Pro to try for size. 6 was far too bulky. 6S was much closer to the 935 and 945 in size/weight

Nothing bad to say about it (though also nothing stellar) - I had a 935 before and this is... basically the same. But a bit posher. GPS marginally better. Optical HR still a bit shit so I use a Polar arm HR band when I want to track HR and don't want to wear the watch like a tourniquet. Couple of bells and whistles like the track mode when running (knows if you're on a running track so can use that to tidy up the GPS and pacing further).
Haven't used Garmin pay or music since I tend to run with a phone in my back pocket.

If it's same price as 745 and less than a 945 then can't see a reason not to get it (assuming you don't just run, in which case it's overkill and probably could get a 245/645)
