Need new running watch! Watches similar to Casio SDB-300W?

Question: 1.Hi all. My Casio SDB 300W watch has died and they don't make it anymore!!! Any good suggestions? My Casio has a 30 lap memory that saved the date of each workout along with all the splits, so that I could update my running log once a week.

Do any other watches out there have this functionality? I hate the thought of just storing a single workout.

2.I looked through lots of watch threads out there without luck. Does anybody know if Casio makes a watch with the features of the old SDB-300W?




Answer:

1.I think a POLAR S210 is a good decision. 99 lap memory and a lot of other interesting functions. http://www.polar.fi/productfinder/ I was the one who posted about the new Casio being available at WalMart, and now I'd like to add that I just bought the solar powered one on EBAY last night for under $40. The same seller is also selling the battery powered one for under $30.

2.I also had the 330W for years and loved it. When it died I bought a Timex which kept 100 splits thinking I would need that many for some of my races. I soon discovered the Timex was a big pain in the ass, like driving a stretch Hummer four blocks to by a loaf of bread. When the Timex died I went looking for 300W and it's simplicity. I found the STR101 2401 and it was about $30 and very much like the 300W, with big numbers by the way.

I took a quick look at the Casio web page and I didn't see that model or if they made a newer version with at different stock number. While mine is working flawlessly I wish I had bought a spare so if and when this one dies, I would not need to do what you are doing. ;)

If you do find the replacement model please post back here.

The old 330W was always listed in the ad section in RunnerWorld and maybe Running Times but I don't read those rags anymore.
