"the only full performance watch computer for triathletes!! Once you have it, you won;t be able to live without it."afdrmom

(5)

Ease of installation

easy out of the box. No need to read intructions to get started with the basics.

(4)

Ease of use

Need to read the instructions to get the most of out the 910. The watch is smarter than I am- took a few tries to figure out how to set and do an interval- but once I did- wow!!!

(5)

Quality of Construction

fit and finish is good.

(5)

Fit

I have a small wrist and it fits well. I have not tried to put it on a bike mount, but I see no reason- I can see my wrist while I ride.

(5)

Comfort

no issues

(5)

Adjustability

large band with lots of holes.

(5)

Durability

only had it a month. I've dropped it a few times and had no isues.

(5)

Value

costs the same as other new models.

(4)

Appearance

I like the appearance of the round bevel look better, but this is a very attractive traditional garmin. Much smaller than its predecessors.

(5)

Performance

love love love it so far! Have recommeded it to every triathlete and runner I know. Waiting for the Garmin bike power meter to come out- they are supposed to be compatable.

Strengths

works great in an indoor pool- measures distance with shocking accuracy. Can also set to buzz every certain distance or time so you don;t even have to count if you don;t want to! Worked awesome in open water. I love being able to set an interval workout- once I figured it out, I have set a few kinds of intervals and just edit the type I want for that day. I've dropped it from low (3 feet or so) and it has held up. The soft HR monitor is awesome- no chafing and I can barely feel it.

Weakness

I have not found any yet, except that I prefer the touch bevel, but I'm getting used to buttons. On the other hand, my 410 and 410CX both died after just 2 yrs each- I hope this one lasts longer. HR monitor acted weird the other day- this better not be a trend.
