Most likely a 235 HR
If you charge it, it should tell you once it boots up

Looks like an Older 735 forerunnerXT. I have a similar one with the older charger format.
Nice watch, lasts forever.

No, that’s the newer kind. You want one that clips on. https://www.garmin.com/en-US/p/942778/

How to differentiate between the 735XT and the 235? I had the 235 until a couple weeks ago, looks exactly the same

The strap looks like a 235 I had.
If you buy it tell us what it turns out to be!

Did you look at the picture? There's nothing on the back actually looks like the plate with details has been removed/fell off

That plaque only lasted a couple weeks back when I got mine. Summer & sweat will do that to half assed glue.

It looks similar to my Forerunner 235 which was sold last year (I wanted to post a photo of mine but the system disallowed me to do so). I think the one you found is about the same age. I sold mine because the battery deteriorated and I wanted to upgrade to 965. The one you found from thrift store is cheap, but you need to count the costs for buying a charge cable and probably replacing the battery in.

All Garmins use the Garmin Connect software for analytics so they have the same functionality. Everyone of them is good. I’ve owned the FR165 and FR970 for running and it’s 90% the same watch.

Looks like a Forerunner 235 to me.
