Next Generation Waterproof Tracker like Charge 2/Charge HR

With the release of the Flex 2, I was hoping for a display on a waterproof tracker, preferably with heart rate tracking. To my surprise, they actually released one (Ionic). Now, the Ionic's great and all, but I'm not really looking to buy a smartwatch as an upgrade to a Flex 2. Therefore, I started brainstorming, and came up with these ideas:

 

  • A "reboot" of the Force, but with the Flex 2 material so that you won't have to issue a total recall of the product (again).
  • A waterproof tracker that somewhat resembles the Charge 2. I'd also recommend clock faces with all basic stats (Steps, Calories Burned, Heart Rate) on a single screen. I don't know how you'll do that, but if you can, then by all means, go ahead.

These are the two that came to me. If anyone has any more ideas, there's a comment section below this post. You guys can come up with your own, or add to mine.

Except the Versa looks just like a watch. I don't want to wear 2 watches. I have a nice collection of watches I like to wear. What I want is a subtle fitness band that doesn't stand out that is waterproof. There is very little out there that fits the bill at the moment. A waterproof Charge 2 would. I just don't understand why the whole Fitbit range isn't waterproof!

Yay for the Charge 3 that was recently announced!  Its like the  waterproof charge 2 we've been waiting for!   (Though a waterproof Alta HR would be pretty nifty too.)
