    I feel cheated. I bought this watch and it was delivered to the wrong address due to a Best Buy error. I updated it so that the address could be changed! Now I received a message saying that they will try to recover the product to give me another one. I paid $1.2k+ to have my product before a trip. I'm coming back from the trip and I see that the item will not be available to me!! This is absurd.

    In a world dominated by Apple, Samsung, and Google there is a Watch brand that is dedicated to ensuring you meet all your training goals. Garmin is here with battery life measured in weeks not hours, metrics that ensure you’re ready for race day even if race day means it’s your goal to beat your own personal record or the world record. Bottom line is this if you’re looking for a smartwatch then look at Apple or Samsung or Google. If you need a sports watch Garmin is your brand.
