WHAT YOU'LL LOVE

RUGGED BY DESIGN
Built to endure, this premium design is dive-rated and features leakproof buttons, a metal sensor guard cover and always-on 1.3” solar charged display with scratch-resistant sapphire lens and titanium bezel. It’s tested to U.S. military standards for thermal, shock and water resistance.

BUILT-IN SPEAKER AND MICROPHONE
Make and take phone calls from your watch when it’s paired to your smartphone. Plus, control watch functions with off-grid voice commands — or use your smartphone’s voice assistant to respond to text messages and more.

BUILT-IN LED FLASHLIGHT
A true integrated flashlight with variable light intensities and a red safety light gives you greater awareness in the dark, providing convenient illumination when you need it. Strobe mode can even match your running cadence.

GARMIN COACH
Prepare for your next race, train for a milestone, or simply improve your fitness with Garmin Coach adaptive or prebuilt running, cycling or strength training plans. For more personalized workouts, select plans even adapt based on your performance and health metrics.

KNOWLEDGE IS POWER
Begin each day with a customizable morning report offering a summary of health and wellness information. Use the training readiness feature, which looks at a variety of health metrics, to maximize your training efficiency and recovery3 — to help prevent burnout.

ENHANCED MAP NAVIGATION
A dynamic round-trip routing feature lets you enter how far you want to go — and get suggested routes that will guide you back on time. You can also view terrain contours on TopoActive maps4 and access preloaded maps for golf courses and ski resorts around the world.
