    For past 15 years I have used Garmin eTrex devices to keep track of bicycle ride data and backpacking/kayaking wayfinding. Strongly considered another handheld but decided to try wearable- VERY glad I did! Screen is very readable and device doesn’t feel oversized on my wrist. Changed the band after first ride with NATO-style strap (easy to do!) and am much more comfortable. Bike app that came preprogrammed is very detailed- happy!

    Love the watch but had to return it for the 5s. Really wanted it to work but just too big for my wrist. I love my 5s.

    The biggest surprise for this watch was that it had no touch screen, but I only had to use it for a day or two before I realized that I didn't miss it. The freedom of not accidentally touching the screen and accidentally triggering activities was a big improvement over my android watch. It's easy to wear and easy to use with the array of buttons. There are great built in features, especially for trail walkers and hikers! There seems to be features for EVERY activity!

    Good battery life. Nice screen. Good map (off line) support. Would have preferred an all black screen (wasn't available). Pricey; should be around $450 rather than $650.Would recommend it.
