Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great Product that helps me navigate the field during my field problems. it also tracks heart rate 9.5/10.

Cool accessory very helpful for when you're lost lol

Love this watch. Took 5min to setup. Easy to use and now prefer over my Apple Watch. Garmin Connect app is awesome

I am very pleased with this device, The features of the watch are very easy to use and customize plus it is a Garmin.

My husband likes the watch since it suits his choice. A perfect watch for his daily use.

For my first watch I owned it is easy use an to set up

I love it great product and easy to use as well...

Love the watch and features. Still getting use to it changing from I watch to this. Love that the battery last weeks not hours!

Wore it for a month, awesome features, awesome battery life, terrible rash from the exposed charge port. This was a great watch, the detail of information I received from the app for my workouts was outstanding. The rash I received from this was crippling, still battling it. Whoever though it was an awesome idea for an exposed charging port, with cheap metals, I wouldn’t buy ya a beer. If you care about your skin health, if you don’t want to gamble with a possibility of a rash, don’t buy this watch.

Nice watch. Very comfortable and has all the features I was looking for.

Product was good. I was happy with the overall build quality of this product, but it was not perfect option for my running needs. Many of the running features like PacePro were missing. I specially did not like one that, it does not show battery percentage. Belt quality super like.

This watch is amazing!!!, GPS, HR, Altitude, sunrise and sunset, calories burned, weather, stop wach, date, multi sport tracking, text messages...they though of everything. It’s water proof, shock proof and has lap feature when training. The weight lifting feature is even intuitive enough to count your reps and knows what exercise you are doing. This is the perfect watch for the multi-sport athlete. The battery life is amazing. When using the watch for normal daily features the battery will last up to 2 weeks. With the GPS on, I can get a couple days before having to recharge. Make sure to down load the user manual after purchase to learn how to use all the features. Some of the reviews were inaccurate about the text messages and other apps that I think people just didn’t learn how to use correctly. The only negative comment I would say is the boring color with few options (which I love) and this watch does not have a touch screen. Again learn how to use all the buttons and this is not a problem. In fact, with my last Garmin watch my touch screen cracked and was unusable during my first climb when my wrist hit a rock. After a month with this watch I barely even see a scratch. I would highly recommend this watch to all outdoor sports enthusiasts.

Great item, love using it when I exercise and it’s so useful!

Dec 30th I decided to purchase it and so far I am Very unsatisfied with this watch I basically purchased a watch that my skin is allergic to …. I from what I see I can’t return it anymore or get my money back

I do a lot of hiking/camping, general outdoors type of stuff. I‘be never been a huge “watch guy”. I’ve owned a couple over the years but never actually set out to intentionally to get one. Until now. I knew I wanted something with ABC, weather, and tracking abilities. It also was gonna need to take a beating. You get all that plus a ton more. It’s pretty rugged. I’ve already put it through it’s paces and it’s held up nicely. No scratches to speak of and the screen has taken a couple direct hits. There are a ton of personalization abilities throughout the screen options. It’s easy to maneuver through the settings as well. I didn’t set out for a smart watch but I’m finding the ability to glance down to see what just came through, be it email or text, etc, is a nice feature I never knew I’d enjoy. No you cannot answer messages directly from the watch but again, that’s not what I want in a watch. Again, not really being a big watch guy, I find I leave this on day and night until it needs charging. I’m getting about 8-9 days out of a charge using the gos almost everyday to track hikes/walks. The app seems to work well and provides way more info than I’ll ever need but super cool at the same time, if that’s your thing. The face is kind of big but not ridiculous. I’ve seen way bigger. I like the simple layout of the screen as well, which as previously mentioned, is easily personalized to see what you want to see on each screen during use. There are a bunch of features I haven’t even gotten a chance to mess with yet. Overall it’s a pretty cut and dry watch. If you’re looking for a rugged, well thought out timepiece, with a ton of great and very user friendly features, this is probably for you. If you’re looking to keep up with the Joneses or want a small, thin watch to count steps, answer texts etc, get an Apple Watch. Great watch, even for a guy who doesn’t like watches.

PROS: GPS, on-screen options for compass, pace and mileage tracking, Activity Tracking, heart rate, Smartphone features (call and message notifications, weather, music controls), Excellent battery life in smart watch mode, durable, waterproof, great for outdoor use, trail backtrack feature, compatibility with garmin connect and map apps. CONS: Very large face, black and white display I REALLY wish this had a color display, but this was the first GPS watch I was buying, and the price was unbeatable, so I decided to go for it. Aside from that, I love this watch. The controls did take a bit of getting used, as it is not a touch screen like my previous smart watch, but once you get the hang of it, it's pretty easy to use. I love that it has the most important features to me in a smart watch (notifications/calls/music controls/weather/time), but also has awesome GPS and activity tracking features. I use this watch for horseback riding, mileage and pace tracking on trail rides and on competitive rides. I was able to purchase a band in my preferred color from the garmin website. While in smartwatch mode, the battery lasts forever! My previous smartwatch had to be charged every couple of days. I only have to charge once every 10 days or so, except when I'm using the GPS, and understandably, it does need charged much more frequently when GPS is on. If you're looking for a starter GPS watch that's a great price and has great features, and are willing to try a black and white display, I'd definitely recommend this watch!

My previous watch was a Fitb*t Surge and I had to be really careful with it to get it to synch, swipe to the next screen, and not get it too wet or it did strange things. Not at ALL a problem with this watch. I've had it for about 2 months now and I don't baby it like I had to do with my surge. A few of the things I love about this watch.. 1) water resistant.. I swim and shower with it, no problems 2) synchs first time, every time. Hated the Fitbit synch problems 3) lots of info packed on the home screen and I get to pick the info displayed 4) Its light weight, it feels lighter than my old Surge 5) NO TOUCH SCREEN. I will never own another touch screen watch.

Pros: -GPS -Design -Light -Durable -Battery -Features -Comfortable -Display Cons: -Price It's basically a really good watch but the problem is "are you willing to pay?"

So I got tired of dealing with syncing issues with another brand of smart/fitness tracking watch and decided to research other options. I was very impressed with the ruggedness of this watch but had no idea how happy I would be with the purchase. I am barely scratching the surface of its capability so I will in no way provide a complete review. I can say that it has exceeded my expectations so far. First, I have had absolutely no syncing issues with this watch! The Garmin Connect app just works flawlessly! The synchronization with the other name brand smart/fitness watch I owned before was hit and miss and often frustrating to deal with. Not with this watch! Even the notifications of phone calls, text messages, and new emails works flawlessly. Second, the battery is lasting much longer than I expected even with limited GPS usage. I was expecting to recharge it daily but it just keeps going and going for weeks at a time without the need to recharge. Also, the battery status indicator is easy to read on the main display so you always can tell what the remaining charge is. Third, the features are more than adequate for my needs. I like to hike and work out and this watch easily captures the data I need. The app provides a very visual and easy to understand interface for my heart rate, steps, calories burned, sleep, and stress. Of course, it syncs with my companies health tracking application (which happens to be Virgin Pulse). I played a little with customization and picked what I thought I would use the most but there is so much more for me to explore. I like the weather, compass, and barometer features but have yet to really use them for anything meaningful. Fourth, the watch is truly rugged. I used to take my previous watch off when I was working in my garage to avoid damage to the extremely exposed glass surface. This watch is wrapped in a protective plastic with a recessed glass screen. I have accidentally banged it, scraped it, and rubbed it against a variety of surfaces with no visible damage. Of course, if I am planning to work with oils or solvents I remove it to prevent damage, but other than that is has endured beatings from regular use unscathed. Finally, it just looks great (as a sport watch not a dress watch). It is not too big and yet is easy to read. I gave up the color scree switching from my previous smart/fitness watch but that is completely irrelevant and unnecessary. In fact, I like the contrast of the black and white display better anyway. For my purposes, I cannot be more pleased with this purchase.
