A watch with lots of information
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like the watch because of the detailed information provided at the end of an activity. A non athletic feature I like is getting sleep data, ie, just how well did I sleep.

Move on to the next one. This one ain’t for you.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Stopped charging. Purchased as a Christmas gift. Even downloaded different watch faces but never could get the display to be bright enough. After a week it stopped charging at all and couldn’t get it to operate.

Causes a blistering rash
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a Christmas gift for my son. He cannot wear the watch because the silicone band causes a blistering rash. Garmin’s customer service has been lacking. They tried to blame my son for tightening his watch band roo much, yet his band was loose. Then Garmin promised to send a nylon watch band, yet here we are nearly a month later and my son still can’t wear his watch. Incredibly frustrating experience.
