    I would call this the long-standing minimalist watch. The longevity and durability is purely amazing. The associating app has a great UI. Unfortunately, garmin only goes through its own app system and nearly every app requires a separate subscription. The weather function is very inaccurate and the health stats can be off by large margins. From how the screen is configured, it cuts a lot off of what it tries to tell you. Requiring you to go up and down multiple times just to understand what it's saying.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
