Outdoor Smartwatches & GPS Garmin

I have been using the Garmin Forerunner 745 for a few weeks now and I am very satisfied with the purchase. Before buying the watch, I hesitated between several models, limiting the search to models that allowed for heart rate counting underwater and that had navigation options (route tracking). Of all the options, I chose the Forerunner 745. I am not used to wear a watch and I wanted a lightweight device (only 47g). Also other factors that helped the choice is the very complete Garmin Connect application and the security options (Livetrack) that the watch incorporates (important if you go alone). After some weeks of use, everything has seemed correct to me. All the metrics obtained are reasonable. Maybe, sometimes more information than I need. Perhaps, if I had to look for something to improve, it would be the battery life. In normal use (1 hr/day activity with GPS) I have charged the watch every 5 days. Regarding the Deporvillage service, I am satisfied with the purchase, the watch arrived on time and in perfect condition. I will repeat again.

It meets my requirements

Good. Tracks my runs and rides.

Does every you’d need

What I wanted

Had a competitor brand until I bought this. Has GPS built in, alarms, garmin pay and you can put your own clockface and multiple apps on it. Looks great. Chose this model over the black one. Personally, I'd prefer the black strap but that's just aesthetics

Excellent watch, fully featured as expected.

I an use for everything

Good quality and I'm sure will last as long as my previous Garmin.. have never been disappointed!!

very good

Great battery and functionality. I particularly like the coaching feature
