First off it's not a "Smart watch" as such, it hasn't got a flashy touch screen, it's not going to sing you a lullaby to bed and not going to dazzle you with a bright colourful screen, but what it does do is everything you want a rugged out doors/Sports watch to do, the information you can obtain from it is very good! It also has a lot of widgets and activities to choose from, from basic Walks and Track Running to Stand Up Paddle boarding and Open Water Swimming, all can be mapped and timed. Add the excellent Garmin Connect app to a phone/tablet/PC and pair it with your Watch and all your results can be seen in easy to read tables and graphs. Battery life is also very good for a "Smart" watch as well.

Nice and rugged, love the colour, big and chunky. Amazing battery life, love the voice notifications during a workout e.g during indoor row ?? my current heart rate is announced to me through my headphones ?. Decided to give it 5 stars but there are a couple of annoying issue that don't bother me now but may others.I have a Garmin Vivoactive 3 with touch screen and thought I'd miss that but its not a problem at all. The watch has many programmable options available however it was initially very frustrating trying to set it up & activate exercise program. But after trial and error it's all set up the way I like it.

I have always been active and enjoy many outdoor activities but this lovely piece of kit has been a game changer for me as it takes recording your training and exercise to the next level. Through the app you download to your phone it records the usual distance, time etc. as you would expect but also gives elevation, heart rate, stress levels, body 'battery' as well as GPS mapping - I've used a fraction of the functions with still loads more to discover & use but so far I'm really chuffed. This is my first purchase of a device such as this so I am no expert on these things, but I'd say that anyone who is a keen amateur to semi serious about multi sport performance, this watch covers more than enough of what they'd need?

Feels very sturdy and has all the functions required. Bought mainly as a back up to an old etrex 30 gps unit, so that if it ever failed I would have an back up to support my map reading skills. Undecided between this and the suunto traverse but decided to stick with what I know, and also the extra battery life offered. Full of features, can use bng as Co ordinate reference, log your position, easy to use and accurate compass plus others that not fully explored. Excellent battery life, wore for 2 days on a overnight hike, in gps mode only and only used half available battery. In gps mode only, tracking is very accurate and got me within approx 6 ft of my car when back tracked.

Why did I waste all that time on fitbit watches?!I've had this for 2 months and I use it for walking, running, cycling and strength training. I love it.Accuracy/reliability is perfect.Looks GREAT.Only downside (if any) is that it does so much stuff that I'm not using all it's functionality.Thought I might not like the lack of fancy touch screen but actually don't miss at all. No accidental button presses and fantastic battery life.

Great fitness tracker, really good for swimming and cycling in gloves as there is no touch screen. Battery lasts for ages when not using gps, but still lasts a reasonable time when active. I have found the gps to be accurate. The watch is very comfortable to wear and has a nice soft silicone band. I have previously had cheaper smart/fitness watches and you really get what you pay for, the garmin is a bit more money but it’s loads better.

The Garmin Instinct is a great smart watch that monitors a range of different sports including running, swimming, cycling, rowing and more! It provides easy to read information and syncs seamlessly with the app and Garmin website. The strap is really comfortable and easily adjustable. The data, such as distance etc, is really accurate. Overall I'm delighted with this product and highly recommend it.

Pretty much the perfect watch. It will track your fitness diligently. I brought it based on being a big casino gshock fan, and it hasn't let me down once. Ive used it when running, lifting weights and hiking. It's survived several direct impacts including a 20kg kettlebell. The colour is fantastic and the connection to my phone is perfect. Go ahead, but it now.

It's a lovely comfortable watch,so light you barely know it's there. The activity trackers are really accurate so you get a good grasp of your day and the GPS features are perfect, you can track hikes and climbs, and anything really, and navigate your way back home or whatever you like! Wonderful watch, and looks sick in orange!

Very comfortable. Excellent battery life. It’s been really good recording my running data. The description of ‘flame red’ is quite different from the reality though. It may look a lot better than the (touch screen) vivoactive hr, but it’s not as easy to get to grips with (yet?)

I really like this watch - looks good and functions are awesome but to set up its like teenage sex - a lot of fumbling around and you may eventually get there! Instructions are very brief and don’t believe I’m getting full capability from watch

Bought this watch as a replacement for My apple watch, was cheaper to buy this than get the screen repaired in the iwatch!!!! Very happy with this watch it’s very comfortable to wear all day hardly notice that it’s on...

If you need a smart watch that's indestructible and totally waterproof - this is the one. the screen isn't colour or touch screen but what it lacks in frills it makes up for in robustness, battery life is decent too.

Great watch. Still learning all the functions but still love it. Fitness watch with everything you need on your wrist. Works well with the garmin apps on android. Plus waterproof, sturdy and looks good.

Brilliant in its simplicity. Looks really nice on your wrist. It is now one of my favourite all round watches. The battery life is phenomenal for a smart watch. I would highly recommend this watch.
