Hardloophorloge

Ik heb de forerunner 955 solar en train nu via garmin coach dat werkt goed. Koop de horloge via marktplaats en het is niet eens te duur. Solar is handig voor je blootstelling aan de zon te tracken, niet voor de extra batterijduur.

Switching to Coros

I can't really answer the question, but I just ordered a Pace Pro after I've had two Forerunner 955 Solars die on me in the past 2.5 years. First time they sent me a replacement for like $100. This time it would've been $200 or so. Not paying $200 for a 4 year old watch that will last me a year. Gar

H10 Polar exhausting

My H10 refuses to update software. After about 10 tries, and 3-4 hours of trying I gave up. It takes forever for it to update, and disconnects/fails just out of the blue.

Garmin → Coros switch worth it?

I recently switched from Garmin to Coros. My Forerunner 955 Solar's barometric sensor / altimeter was doing whatever it wanted. I was out of warranty and Garmin offered me 25% off on MSRP in their webshop. What I wanted was accurate GPS, HR, Altimeter, good battery life, offline music and offline ma

Buonasera mi servirebbe un consiglio per un acquisto di un garmin

Da possessore di vari Garmin modelli Instinct e di recente Suunto, ti direi di scegliere quest'ultimo se lo trovi a 400€. Ho il modello Vertical e mi sono trovato veramente bene. Puoi scaricare le mappe gratuite di tutto il mondo a differenza di Garmin che le paghi ed anche parecchio. Forse c'è un m

Are you all carrying a GPS? Which model?

Garmin forerunner 955 with solar. I’m in FL so with a daytime ruck or run 2-3x/wk and also tracking a couple night runs and some workouts I get 2-3wks off a charge. eBay for the win, a little rubbing alcohol and a new wristband and you’ll save 3-500$
