Fitbit Charge HR...big and ugly?

I'm dithering about getting a Fitbit Charge HR but can't get to a shop to see one in person. I usually online shop.

Does anyone here have one? Are they mega chunky? My wrists are about 6.5 inches. I know it's personal opinion but I just wondered if anyone had thoughts on their look. Thank you!

Id keep away from fit bit. I'm on my third Charge HR since October last year - The button and the back keeps falling off. I keep getting sent new ones by fit bit because im still in my years warranty.

I think the Garmin looks good.

I've read about that. Hmm. Don't want a load of faffing. I've got a Zip.which has been great but I want HR monitoring.

Hands I think whenever you get a new product your one years warranty should start again. Not if they've just repaired your same one though I don't think Smile

I wear my Charge HR 24/7 and my wrists are the same size as yours. I bought the small band in black. I suppose it is quite a big fitness tracker but the size doesn't bother me. Sometimes when I go out a put a sparkly bracelet over the top of it!
Had it since Jan with no problems.

I've had mine since August last year and never had an issue. I don't think it's big? I quite liked chunky watches though, so maybe it feels small in comparison!

I have a large one. It means I can put it on my ankles when doing kettlebells as it still records my workout but doesn't get bashed.
