Great watch! Unless you’re tattooed.

I finally pulled the trigger and bought a watch to help me monitor my cycling, hiking and backcountry skiing. This watch has all the bells and whistles to monitor my activities and progress throughout their respective seasons. UNFORTUNATELY the laser that this watch (and all watches with a heart rate sensor - Apple, Suunto, etc.) cannot read through heavily tattooed skin! Total bummer. Around my wrist I got zero HR, but the moment I slid it to my hand (that isn't tattooed), the HR popped right up. Upon further investigation, I discovered this is a common frustration amongst tattooed people. Oh well, at least it was an easy return process. Hopefully there’ll be a viable option in the not so distant future, as the info this watch tracks would be greatly appreciated!

I have owned this watch for a month and it has an excellent battery life and delivers everything I need. Text messages, steps, sleep monitor, heart rate, and more. Replaced my Apple and Fit Bit with one device.

questionable

i bought mainly to track my heart rate and i guess it's okay for that and close to the readings on my other devices. the cons are some of the other features.1: it should come with a plug to cover the charging port. 2: the compass doesn't seem to be very accurate as compared to a regular compass. 3: i wouldn't count on the weather widget. i constantly have to reboot the watch to get it to work and i've read other reviews that complain about the same thing. haven't tried the gps tracking as of yet.

Great Smart Watch......However....

I wish they had made it out of impervium. I had to replace my last Garmin Instinct due to massive welding spatter damage. I mean it's 2024 can't they make a watch that can stand up to arc welding spatter? That was sarcasm, Although I did damage my last watch. I now wear a welding sleeve.
