Damn, that's a good deal. I have the one with the wrist HR but I only use the strap when I run so I can't personally say that the strap is definitely more accurate (I like the extra data you get with the strap). However, from the reviews I've read, it seems like the wrist hr monitor is slightly less accurate than the strap during runs, but still pretty useful. I wanted the one with the wrist hr just so I'd still have hr data if I forgot to wear the strap or whatever.
Also, I really like that silver/red combo. I wish the 3 HR had come in more colors (I know different bands are available but the watch itself is only available in dark grey, as far as I know).
Actually though, that reminds me of one other benefit of the 3 HR- its also the sapphire model, which means the crystal is of a higher quality than the standard version (at least according to the salesman I talked to). If you tend to beat up watches, you may want to get that version, which is also on sale without the wrist HR. Even the titanium version, which also does not have the wrist HR, is on sale too. The 3 HR does not appear to be on sale though, at least not yet.
