Great watch for multiple cycling modes.

Similar to my Garmin Edge 530 bicycle computers recording of cycling metrics. Paired easy with my Wahoo Ticker heart rate monitor and Stages left side crank power meters. Great size, style, battery life and function. I purchased this watch primarily because it had multiple cycling modes and I wanted to use it to record my cycling metrics while racing cyclocross verses using my Garmin Edge 530 cycling computer because cyclocross requires multiple bike changes. It took a a little bit of time watching videos and reading about the watch to get familiar with it but overall very easy to figure it out. Overall I am very happy with the price, sleep score, functionality and style of the watch.

Absolutely amazing watch. Upgraded from an Apple Watch after mine shattered on a bike crash. This thing is super accurate . I only charge it once a month. Awesome metrics it tracks for all sports especially MTB. Automatically syncs to Strava. Still get text notifications on it. Couldn't ask for anything else

Got this about a month ago and haven't scratch the surface if what it can do. I thought I would use it mostly for the golf app. But WOW it has so much more!

This is my second Instinct 2 Solar. Packed with features. I moved over from the Fenix and supports everything I need in a daily watch whether it’s work, physical activities or on an adventure. It’s comfortable and the perfect size for most people.

Great watch, screen size is a little small. Wish there wasn’t a square around the screen

Instinct 2 solar

This watch covers everything I wanted. Heart rate monitor, steps, compass, altitude. Even has moon phases. Better than any Gshock that I have owned in my opinion.

Best garmin I've purchased

Does everything i want, and nothing I don't need. Best of all it's extremely durable. If you're look for a seemingly simple watch (no touch screen), does activities very well, and feels borderline invincible, this is your watch. Worth the price tag. Not sure if the solar function is worth the extra spend, might prove useful down the road.
