It’s more than I imagined it would be!

2 weeks ago

My son bought this for me as a birthday gift to replace my other fitness watch a month ago. I am simply floored as to just how much better this watch is. I’m still discovering the all the features and settings. It is very rugged and can withstand all my activities, which is something my previous watch was not. I would highly recommend this to anyone, especially someone who is into monitoring the status of their body and outdoor activities.

Great watch!!

My watch was delivered about a month ago and I don’t think I’ve taken it off besides to charge it once. It weights nothing, barely know you’re wearing it. I added a rubber cover to keep it from getting beat up, and added a magnetic watch band. Neither of these were needed but as my wife says I can’t leave things alone lol. Great watch I recommend it to everyone.

Great watch and useful

I bought it a few weeks ago, I had been without one for many years. I have learned to use and rely upon it. I can’t imagine how I did without it, simple to understand and easy to read even with older eyes
