Some basic Polar units are reasonably priced and tells date/time.

I also have a Garmin. But I don't like it as much as it's not as intuitive how to get the functions to go.

I like how on the Polar, I just put the watch close to the sensor and it beeps and the thing is ON. With the Garmin, I'm struggling with the different modes and push this button and then that...BAH!!!

Polar makes a watch that works as a bike computer/hmr that I've been running for a couple of years almost every day. so far it has been all I wanted for logging rides and workout performance. My wife is the retail buyer for a big fitness club and the Polar watches is all she will carry and sale due to a much better track record of happy customers.
