Very good motivation tool. Together with Garmin-Connect and Training Center all what you need. Brilliant!

Features,
Looks,
Precision,
Program possibilities (together with Training Center software)
The bezel is not always easy to operate - especially when it's moist/wet (eg after a training in hot weather).
I wonder how long the rubber wrist strap will last.
Perfect tool.
Works super to give my motivation a boost.

Serioius bit of kit

Excellent options designed for seveal different workouts, superb data transition, looks and feels good and is easy to use ( in the end )
Getting used to the controls was a bit frustrating, but even with my patience I mastered it very quickly.

Best bit of kit I've ever bought.....

I use it for running, cycling and hiking and then manually add swim and kayak sessions on the website so have a record of my progress across the board. Brilliant to see elevation gain and loss with hiking in the Lake District. (With a full battery it holds up during long sessions! - 6 hours was longest and still had some charge left) I used the Garmin ready training schedule for a half marathon which has been great!!
Generally easy to use and brilliant motivation....
Sometimes takes a while to locate satellites.
Upload with ANT stick sometimes needs repeating as it can get it's knickers in a twist.
I love it....I got mine with the HRM for £200 and I've certainly got my money's worth.
