Digital camera reviews of Garmin Forerunner 405 Wireless GPS-Enabled Sport Watch with USB ANT Stick and Heart Rate Monitor (Black)

Digital camera Review: Awesome watch!
Summary: 5 Stars

I have been using this watch for a month and haven't had any problem at all. The GPS work perfect and it takes no time to load the satellites. I tested the GPS accuracy on a ¼ mile track and it is very accurate. The automatic laps counter and the virtual runner are a plus if you run by yourself and/or on a track. The information is really easy to download to the computer and the statistics are very useful.

So far I have nothing negative to say about the watch.

Digital camera Review: Awesome!
Summary: 5 Stars

This product has renewed my love for running. It is amazing. You are easily able to keep up with your time, pace and distance. I can run or ride my bike and come home and stick the usb stick in and see exactly what I did and where I went. It is a great product for a serious runner in training for an event or for the novice that wants positive feedback. I would highly recommend the Garmin 405 to everyone!

Digital camera Review: Battery Life
Summary: 2 Stars

I have had the watch for 14 months. (two past the warranty). I liked the features and wasn't bothered by the touch bezel and sweat issues. For the features you can deal with it. The problem is the battery. After 14 months mine just died. I also have a friend traning for the Coeur d'Alene tri and he said he is on his third one bc of the battery.

Digital camera Review: Best GPS running watch
Summary: 4 Stars

A lot smaller and lighter than the previous version. GPS works just fine. Nice display and scroll bezel. Best GPS running watch available in the market today.

Digital camera Review: Best Training Tool Ever!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

Well to start off this review I like many others were very hesitant about purchasing this item due to alot of negative reviews. For me it was very hard to spend $350 on an electronic watch, but I am so glad that I did. I have been training with the nike + Ipod software and I will never look back. The nike + would sometimes be off by over a mile!!! Not this watch!!! When I recieved the product from amazon I unboxed it and the ant usb stick was broken so I called amazon and they 1 day shipped a whole new watch to me and told me to take whatever I needed out of the new watch in order to make my watch work!!!! Awesome customer service!!! I don't understand why so many people have so many issues locating satellites. I can locate one in about 10 seconds sitting inside my apartment. I took it hiking with me over the weekend in the deep hills and woods of Indiana on a 10 mile hike and lost the sattelite signal probably twice, but the satellites were able to track the lost distance and figure it into the total. The Garmin Connect software is alittle confusing at first to figure out, but once you get it going it is a very helpful training tool!!! I have very small wrists and it fits fine. I would highly reccomend purchasing this watch!!! You won't be dissapointed!!!!
