Love the workout features

I've had the watch for a month but used Garmin watches since 2008 for marathons, Ironmans and century rides. I love the suggested training for runs and the training load feedback. It's nice to have a workout program that is tailored for me based on my metrics. Thanks Garmin!!!

Overall a great watch !!!

I have been using Garmin for my running/swim & biking for many years and haven’t used any other. When my last watch the Forerunner 735 was getting old and as I was about to change to Coros, just called the Garmin customer service to see if they had any suggestions. I was told about the 745 and I sure did get one last month to see how it was any different. I really lived to its expectations with some fine features: extending the battery life, accuracy in heart rate, music storage, Garmin pay and so many other excellent options!!! I highly recommend this watch. Love it!

I had 2 forerunner 645 music and I loved the watch , but the charger was crap and the band broke 2 times the same problem. So I upgraded to the forerunner 745 and I does everything my 645 did and more , the charger is waaaayyy better and the band seems more reinforced!!!!

I bought a Forerunner based on recommendations from fellow pool swimmers. I am flabbergasted at how much power this watch has! It's a never-ending learning experience to figure out all the bells and whistles. So far, I am very impressed with the quality and the capabilities. Highly recommended!!

Perfect watch for swimming.

This gets a 5 star rating. It records my heart rate when I’m swimming setting the wrist heart rate. I also use the chest heart rate monitor. There is some difference in accuracy but the numbers aren’t that far off. This doesn’t have all the bells and whistles as some other Garmin, but if your not a serious competitor this is the perfect watch.
