 Rating:  - My new best friendHaving never used any other device I cannot offer a comparison but I am delighted with this piece of kit. I would swap this for my ipod if I had to as it is the best running companion you could wish for. The "virtual partner" is fantastic and keeps you motivated to stay with the pace all the way. Being able to see your heart rate, calories burnt, distance covered, pace, time, gradiant and so much more during your run is invaluable. The on-line graphs are brilliant as well. I think it's ... Read More Rating:  - Hopefully a more balanced viewI have been running seriously since August 2005 and in that time have owned a Forerunner 101, a 301, a 305 and now the 405 with HRM, I have 900 runs/races uploaded to Motionbased, I have competed in 83 races this year wearing a 305 and for the last month a 405. Apologies for the long preamble but many reviews make me wonder whether the reviewer has actually used the device in anger. Firstly the 405 is a vast improvement on the 305 in three ways 1. The size (obviously), I only ever take it ... Read More Rating:  - Terrible Software and even Worse SupportI bought this watch several months ago when it first came out and was willing to forgive some of the foibles it had (complicated UI, sensitive bezel) for the looks and functionality. Unfortunately, the software is driving me completely crazy. The data transfer is completely random (for the last month I haven't been able to transfer any data although my watch is apparently communicating with the computer). The web page is very unintuitive. Also I cant get the new software patch ... Read More Rating: - Cracking bit of kit........but it doesn't work when wetI really like this watch. Ok it's a bit ugly and it looks a bit big on the wrist (don't buy it if you have really small wrists - without trying it first) but for aesthetics it's a big improvement on the FR305. I wear it all the time and charge it overnight. Battery life is fine for normal training use (I estimate about 6-7 hours with the GPS on). The GPS locks on quick and the distance recorded looks pretty accurate (it was spot on round a running track). I have had the watch for 3 months ... Read More Rating: - Over-engineered, badly designed...etcThis is an expensive, over-engineered piece of kit that should have stayed in Garmin's prototype room. Its my first heart rate monitor, and I wish I'd gone with the 305. This has to be the clumsiest most user-unfriendly item I've bought in a long time. The bezel is hopeless. Check out the video on Garmin's website, the guy is constantly under/over-spinning it, and this is when he's standing still and probably after numerous takes. Try doing that when you're running and you just want to get some ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
