"A great buy. Now ... if it were only waterproof--then I'd use it in every tri."Big-w
Ease of use
Keep the manual!!
Quality of Construction
Impressed.
Fit
Much better than all the predecessors.
Comfort
Feels fine.
Adjustability
It cannot quickly be put on or adjusted. The rubber watchband tends to stick. Consider changing out to the velcro one.
Durability
No problems, and it has been through a lot.
Value
Does everything quite well.
Appearance
... an improvement from older models.
Customer Service
Never had a problem with Garmnin.
Performance
No problems here.
Strengths
Rugged. I love the selection of displays you can choose from--that is great.
Weakness
The cradle that it charges in and used to transmit data through the USB should be handled with reasonable care. I had to have Garmin replace both while still under warranty, because the signals were not being transmitted to the PC consistently. Can also take awhile to charge.
