Target has the Fossil Q smart watch on sale. Anyone here have experience with it that they can provide some reviews?

Which one? there are a few variations of the Q line. I have the Explorist 3 and it's great. The 4th version is better because of the heart rate monitor, but I got the 3 for less than 150, so... Plus, at this point you really want to wait for anything that has the newer chips.

Fossil Gen 3 Smartwatch - Q Explorist 45mm


I assume it has the heart rate on it?

Nope, the 3rd Gen doesn't have a heart rate monitor. Only the 4th Gen does. However, they don't have the newer Wear chip, so while cool and fully-featured, they're still using 2-year-old processsing.

Ok. I wouldnt want it without heart rate so I'll either go for newer fossil or the s3

same here using Fossil Q explorist gen 3 gold...love the watch...though note 9 has heart rate monitor so its ok
I like having the heart rate on the watch. My main activity is cycling and during that activity, my phone is in a secure Ram mount on the handle bars. I can easily view the route I'm on, and having the heart rate on my watch is great. I've had a Gear S3 in the last and just made the purchase of one on Swappa- should have it by Monday/Tuesday
