Garmin Fenix 5 watch series

I did buy the Galaxy Hilly..had it for three days and returned as I scored the Garmin $400 off retail price. The Galaxy was a great looking watch with all the gloss of a smartwatch but I'd be forever stressing about the waterproof reliability..where the smarter option was the Garmin..which in the end worked out the same price (almost)..lol..

I just got a Fenix 5 plus Sapphire still under warranty from Gumtree for $500 . Stoked it is so much better than the 3. Still not as good as the Apple watch but I lost 2 of them in the ocean

That is a great price Hilly! I think you will find it a good watch. I have used my Fenix 5 in the surf on a regular basis for about three years and it seems to be bomb proof. Still holds a charge for two weeks and charges in a couple of hours. There are lots of free custom faces that you can download which are very cool.

cheers
