Nice looking watch but activity tracking needs improvement

I use this watch daily to track activities, tell time, check my stress, heartrate, and even plan some breathing exercises. I did notice that the distance/time when recording my runs is not always accurate. If I record the run with someone else, my watch always tells me I ran at a faster pace and a further distance. I also have tried comparing it to tracking in the Strava app and the app shows the same discrepancy
I really enjoy this watch because of how stylish it looks while also being able to do all of the other features and then some of every smart watch on the market. As a person who works in a professional environment being able to wear a watch that is multipurpose is very important to me. Being able to track all of fitness work while also remaining with a professional look is a very big deal to me.
The clock is stylish , and I was planting to use it also as a stop watch but for a gadget Who does not have buttons, thus relying heavily on its Interface, severly lacks. The 60 Second Interface clock dissapairs after 4s....like WHY would I need a 60 Second count that dissapairs after 4s it defeats the purpose. Really dissapointed and feel like Iw been fooled out of my money. Work AS a Personal Trainer, so the timer function was important to me.
There’s a strange bug with setting alarms by Garmin Connect application (at least on iPhone 6s iOS 14.0.1). After setting the times of alarms (which is very easy) my Garmin Vivomove 3 doesn’t vibrate at the set times. Meanwhile there are permanent 00:00 figures on the little screen of the watch itself (in the proper directory of the watch’s menu) which I cannot change by any means — there are neither physical no virtual buttons to alter the numbers...
Just bought and tried on my vivomove3 and the band came undone twice on the first day. The pin holding the band to the watch keeps coming out. Same side and on looking at watch band retaining spring pins one is notably shorter and that is the one that keeps coming off the watch face. Other than that I love the vivomove 3 a lot.
