CONSIDER YOURSELF A RUNNER
This user-friendly GPS smartwatch allows people of all skill levels to monitor their statistics and pursue fitness goals.
Thanks to the integrated GPS, you can check your time, distance, pace and speed while running or walking.
The wrist heart rate display and other functions allow you to monitor your general health and well-being.
Train without uncertainty. This smartwatch recommends tailor-made runs for you.
The running functions that help you reach your full potential are high-end, but the price is not.
It monitors much more than running thanks to a series of integrated activity profiles.
Up to 2 weeks of battery life, because reducing recharging is always a good thing.
DESIGN AND FUNCTIONALITY
Lightweight and comfortable, this smartwatch is perfect for running and everyday life.
SPORT MATERIALS
While you’re running a 5K or sweating during a HIIT session, experience ultimate comfort with this silicone sports strap.
Integrated GPS
Activate GPS reception while running and receive accurate statistics, including distance, pace and AutoLap.
HEART RATE AT Wrist
If your heart rate remains high while you are at rest, you get heart rate data along with the alerts. Your heart rate during activity is also measured.
GARMIN COACH
These are guided by experienced coaches and adapted to your results. You will have your workouts synchronised directly on the watch.
DAILY SUGGESTED TRAINING
To offer you customised training plans, daily running suggestions are of varying intensity depending on your training history, fitness level and recovery time.
PACEPRO™ TECHNOLOGY
To help you plan a strategy for race day, this feature offers GPS-based pace guidance for the route or distance selected in the Garmin Connect™ app. You can then calibrate your effort according to the distance still to go.
End Time
Would you like an indication to reach your goal more easily? Select a running distance to see a data screen showing the estimated end time.
Track Running
When you start training on the track to increase your speed, use the integrated track running activity to accurately record lap distances and display them in metres.
CADENCE ALERT
Want to improve your running performance? Use the cadence alerts to know when you have exceeded your target cadence range.
RECOVERY ALERT
It is essential to give your body time to recover between training sessions. After each workout, a built-in recovery time function indicates how much rest you need before embarking on a new training session.
RACE PREDICTIONS
This specialised tool takes into account your fitness level and training history to help you progress towards your race goal and control the impact of your training on your predicted end time.
PRECARED SPORTS PROFILES
Change your training routine by choosing activity profiles for track or virtual running, pool swimming, Pilates, HIIT and even breathing exercises.
