I liked my old Instinct watch much better. didnot have as much unwanted info on it. Plus can hardly read the info on the watch because it is so small, I need to put on glasses. plus I really don't know how to use it. Been trying to firgure out how to get rid of stuff on the watch I don't use.

This is my second Garmin. My last one was a solar. It functions the same. If I had a wish it would be to make the time display brighter and darker to see the numbers better.

This is my second one. My original Garmin is still in great shape but this has some interface and capability updates that I really thought I would use. The buttons are now more recessed so you don't bump them by accident and there are numerous improvements to the display. I hike, bike and work out frequently even at 70 YO and I can't imagine being without it. I recommend it to anyone who is active.
