Used all the time at home or on trips

I have had this watch for some time now and I love it. The ability to track waves and see them on my phone is great. I have used it all over Central America and also in the US at my local surf spots. I wish the band lasted a bit longer but a replacement band was easy to install.

Love how user friendly it is as well as the solar

I bought this a few weeks ago. Since I live mostly in Hawaii, I was very interested in the solar and surf features. The solar is so amazing, I'm up to a 32 day charge with all the features on. The watch in general is so easy to navigate and visual is perfect at a glance. I hope to use the surf feature next month when I'm back in Hawaii. I've tried all the other watches, iwatch, galaxy watch, and Fitbit, but this by far is the best of the best! Love it!

Totally Impressed!

I am a Garmin fan and own several other products. I am also an avid canoeist/kayaker/fish/hunt etc. This watch has so many features I can't begin to explain how useful it's become, but tracking, back tracking, acreage, navigation, health, it does it all and extremely well. I can also pair it with my InReach and using it with Garmin Connect & Explorer just rounds it all off! The battery life is amazing. Anyone who spends time in the outdoors should own one of these and if you spend more that seven days out camping, trekking etc I definitely recommend the "solar" version.
