Suunto Stainless Strap for Observer
$59.95 
Suunto Observer stainless strap
The stainless watchband looks much nicer than the elastomer band that I had previously. The clasp on the stainless strap is also a nice improvement over the elastomer adjustable wristband. It took a jeweler 45 minutes to install the new watchband.
Observer strap
A tedious process to install. You will need a very small (jewelers size) flat screwdriver for installation. Once installed the strap works fine.
Difficult Installation, but extremely satisfied

Training Tips
For runners looking to get the maximum benefit from hill training, as you sprint to the top of the hill have your arms pumping faster and faster. Once you get to the top, continue on increasing your speed as much as possible.
After each interval, take your pulse rate by counting the number of beats at your wrist or neck for 15 seconds. Multiply that result by four to get your beats per minute. Your next interval should start before your heart rate is less than 60% of your maximum.
The four components of good fitness include flexibility, muscular endurance, muscular strength, and cardiorespiratory endurance. For optimum health, include at least two of these groups in three workouts per week.
Your fitness level will improve by overloading, working your body hard enough to stimulate the body, progression, increasing the frequency, intensity, and duration of exercise over time, and regularity, working out frequently, at least three times a week.
