Just what i needed!
I was looking for the best battery life, and this watch knocks it out of the park compared to most! It profiles my fitness readiness by tracking a dozen different things and takes a lot of stress away from having to manually input data onto my phone after runs or workouts ect. It's much more accurate with gps & tracking than my phone is unless you go inside a building. I like the silicone band quality as well as adjustability to get it right where you want. There is so much more that I could say about it but garmin did it right and it is a great watch!

This will improve your life
The only reason i bought the watch was to see progress in my life… I was miserable, barely active, and was a chronic insomniac. As i improve my health and sleep, the watch tracks the daily improvement. I got to see my growth. After seeing the daily numbers from the watch (sleep score, step count, heart rate, etc) improving everyday, I became hook on the good habits. It became a game of doing better the next day and the next day. You get it. So if you are looking to improve your overall life and see the improvement on a daily basis, get a garmin. If you are atruggling to stick to habits because you cannot see growth, get a garmin. It will change your life.

My Instincts BE ON FIRE!
This watch makes me focused, analytical, on time, aware, healthier, and lookin' dang good. I purchased this watch to track heart rate and sleep and found out it does WAY more than that and provides a metric of your activity for the day including sleep. Such a wonderful purchase and would recommend to anyone looking to grab a fitness watch or related item!!! YOU ALL ROCK!
