who use a heart rate monitor, I like one

For years, I have raced road bike without any electronic "stuff" and learn what my body tells me. After 10-15 years of being off the bike, its taken me months to just to finish the local training rides with my tongue hanging half past my gut(not riding enough and hate being the last guy). My methods have always been riding lots of miles and chase the guys in front of me until I puke and do it again. At 47, I can't do that siht any moe. I'll break down and get a heart rate monitor to see if there are any benefits. A bunch of my geek friends have those things the size of a phone sitting atop their handle bars that record and show everything from a pee stop to a 9000' climb. I have no need and hate having any of that stuff on my bar. No speedo, nothing. Anyone use those that goes on your wrist like a watch. Runners, what do you use? I am thinking of a watch and HRM, nothing more. Any thoughts?
