Ease of installation

I felt the software it comes with is very easy to install and you can download a web updater for the software and programs on the garmin.

(4)

Ease of use

There is so much information that you can get from the watch that it is just as easy to find the easy things like pace and distance. You can also change the windows to see what results you want to monitor.

(5)

Quality of Construction

I find that the watch is very well built just as the heart rate monitor is. I have used mine for a few years now and it is still going strong. Yeah

(4)

Fit

Since the watch comes with two length arm bands it is adjustable for anysize and if you have small wrist just place a wristband under your wrist

(4)

Comfort

The watch is pretty big so if you have a funny shaped wrist the comfort level might be worse for you. Mine fits great.

(5)

Adjustability

Since the watch comes with two length arm bands it is adjustable for anysize and if you have small wrist just place a wristband under your wrist

(4)

Durability

I find that the watch is very well built just as the heart rate monitor is. I have used mine for a few years now and it is still going strong. Yeah

(5)

Value

I find that this product is truly amazing and it is well worth the price. Now with the 405 out there this price should decrease some what.

(3)

Appearance

The watch is pretty big but not as big as the 101-301 series.

(5)

Customer Service

Excellent customer service

(5)

Performance

Excellent on performance as long as you know what you want it to do. Just take the time and read the manuel.

Strengths

Pretty much can obtain any running or other sporting event data possible. Once you learn the watch it is very easy to get the most out of it.

Weakness

Big watch and might not be able to fit everyones wrist. The signal can fade in and out with rural area. Battery length wish was sometimes longer.
