Anyone do this?

I've just ordered a fitbit surge which other than being an activity tracker is a fully functioning "smart" watch.

Do I wear this on my other wrist or all the time, leaving my nice watches at safe at home?

Yours,

Conflicted of Swansea (aka Simon).

Up to you, but I think you'll look a little daft wearing two watches even on separate wrists.

Problem is that the Surge is more watch like than other fitbit bands you can get.
That's my concern. I could have had my wife's charge but it lacked pulse & GPS.

Will be used to monitor walking in the main + a bit of cycling when my back allowssmile

Thanks for all the responses. I suspect this will rapidly become the norm.

I think I like my nice watches too much not to rotate them & leave them in the safe so I'll try the both wrists occupied for a while to see how I get on.

I've gone for the Black version:-

The Surge arrived yesterday & I'm hooked already. A great motivational tool with a great iOS app backed up with a more detailed online account.

It feels natural on my dominant wrist too. Will feel weird wearing a watch with it tomorrow though!
