So far very positive...great wrist based HR recording?

I upgraded from a Fenix 5S+ to a 965 on Sunday which so far has been very positive. My Fenix was never right from day one however everything with the 965 has been the complete opposite - it's a lovely bit of kit of sheer beauty!

So far after charging up on Sunday afternoon, doing an update and turning off non running necessary features such as all the notifications the battery is only down to 73% (Thursday lunchtime) and that's with 2hrs 15 (~15miles) of running.

I have so far just used the wrist based HR capability on the 965 but have done a couple of runs using my Fenix and a chest based strap as well as the 965 and the results are very similar. Previously I've always used a separate HR strap because of the inaccuracies and very variable recording of wrist based functionality but the 965 seems to have cracked it and I am not sure I will use a separate HR strap anymore.

Has anyone else who previously used a separate HR strap changed to wrist based functionality with the 965?
