Garmin Fenix 3 HR GPS watch
If you are looking for a strong and durable
watch to track your activities then the Fenix
3 HR is worth checking out. When it comes
to multi-sport tracking this watch is hard to
beat. It works for skiing, climbing, biking,
hiking, paddleboarding, swimming, running,
rowing, golf, and triathlon. If that list does
not cover your sport you can even make your
own by choosing the data screen you want.
The Fenix also has motion sensors, a baro-
metric altimeter, compass, heart rate moni-
tor, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi.
For those who like to keep track of dai-
ly exercise, this watch keeps you true and
honest and even motivated with automatic
alerts that remind you its time to move and
hit a goal.
The watch itself is pretty big and can
at times feel weighty. Actual weight is 82
grams, and it sits 16mm off your wrist. It can
be hard to hide, as well, and does not tuck
inside sleeves with ease. You know when you
are wearing it, and so do most people who
see you. That being said, the band that is a
slightly stretchy silicone is ver y comfortable
and easy to keep clean.
Garmin uses the app Connect to pair with
the watch, and it honestly gives you more
information than you thought possible. We
liked the ability to see in various breakdowns
our daily, weekly, and monthly activities.
Batter y life is ver y strong, and depending on
which mode it is in you can get from 16- 40
hours of use.
We recommend this watch to those who
are active and like an accurate and informa-
tive way to track their exercise and adven-
tures.
