In case anyone was watching and is curious, I ended up getting the Garmin Vivosmart HR+. I've only had it for 2 weeks and it's been working well for me.
The HR+ is the same as the HR, but with the addition of GPS. I've used it while running and I'm pretty happy with it.

Glad you like it. The wife and i have been thinking of getting something too. After a month or so of heavy use, give us a good honest review please! We look forward to hearing about it.

I love mine.
I went on a hike a couple of weeks ago with a new group, and I was a little surprised to find I was having trouble keeping up (fast paced and uphill - almost scrambling). Since we still had four miles to go, I thanked them, but headed back.
When I got home, my Vivoactive had not only mapped the trail, but showed me I had hit a new heart rate high of 168. So I was probably right to turn around and not get stranded a couple of miles later on some rocky trail on the back side of a mountain, needing medical help.

My wife and I each got a Vivosmart hr+. Shortly afterwards, I broke my leg, so I'll have to get back to you when I can actually get after it again. So far, so good though. I like checking my sleep patterns. I'll have to compare the heart rate when I get on the warm up bike at physical therapy.
Gotta admit, I like the GPS, the ability to load apps, and of course the Punisher watch face! ;-) Actually, I use the calendar watch face now.

Uh, huh? I can change the watch face? I'll have to look into that now.
Looks like that's for the VivoActive. I don't see any different watch faces for the VivoSmart.
