Overview

Not a basic step counter, this Garmin is a wrist-worn GPS watch aimed at running and triathlon. Satellite positioning logs routes, and a touch screen backs up the physical buttons for navigating menus.

Multisport athletes get a watch with satellite tracking and a long battery life stated in weeks rather than hours. The listing comes from a different seller than Garmin and pairs the watch with earbuds, so confirm exactly what ships. Nothing in the data confirms cellular calling despite the name.

Who it's for

Training for races across swimming, cycling and running calls for a watch like this one. A shopper who wants a clear list of what is in the package should ask the seller first, since the listing only names the watch and earbuds.

Pros and cons

Performance notes

Tracking accuracy depends on the satellite system the watch uses to fix position, which here is GPS, and on a clear view of the sky. The capacitive touch screen and buttons give two ways to control it, which helps when hands are wet or gloved. Battery life varies with how much tracking and display use the watch sees.
