The Best Endurance Watch On The Market.

I recently switched from Apple Watch and have now worn it straight for three weeks. First, let me address the size. At 51mm, this thing is huge. Except not really. My AW seems too tiny now so I suppose it's all relative. My wife also initially commented on how large it is and now says it doesn't seem as big as it did initially. My wrist measurement is a little under 17.5 inches for those that want comparison. If you're on the fence simply because of size, it isn't a big deal on this side of the purchase. Second, the MIP screen. I think it's great. Coming from an always on smartphone on my wrist this is a welcome non distraction. I wear it to bed and it's easy to check the time in the middle of the night if I really want to. I hope Garmin continues to use these types of screens in their watches for the future. Third, the battery life. It's ridiculous in the best way. I've charged it once in the three weeks I've had it and it's at 62% at this moment. I have it set to use SatIQ for my runs and it continuously checks my pulseOX at night. I'll have no issue on backpacking and hunting trips or traveling so that is one less cord to keep track of when out of the house. The case is pretty durable. I run into things all the time and there are no scuffs, scratches, or any damage whatsoever. Garmin has excellent metrics. This is a sports watch oriented at the endurance athlete. If you're coming from AW or some other smartwatch brand you'll be pleasantly surprised at the capabilities here. Read up on all the specs to b learn about all the sensors, measurements, and training programs on here. Too many to list in a single view but I'm getting a lot out of Garmin Coach, sleep coach and can't wait to try out the fishing data. Yes, fishing, who knew?
