Returning

I was sad that Garmin will no longer have the swim 2 watch. Thought I’d try the forerunner, it’s not as simple as the swim 2, and I already have a smart watch. I returned it, and hope my old watch lives on.

I am a longtime runner. I have had this watch for about 2 weeks now and have been enjoying the features especially the coaching sessions that are included.
This has been a win-win purchase!

I bought this about a month ago, and I love it. I switched to a Garmin Forerunner 165 as I have gotten more serious about running. The running plans on the watch are incredible, the watch itself is super easy to use, and the GPS tracking system I find to be very accurate. I would recommend.

Great accuracy!

I purchased the Garmin 165 because I wanted better GPS accuracy for my runs and hikes. I’m still getting used to all the information the watch provides but the accuracy is excellent and I love it! I also love the sleep analysis and the run reminders. The band is comfortable and I appreciate the length of the band, which offers nice adjustments. I recommend the Garmin 165-reasonably priced with so much to offer!
