Good quality watch. Good size and great style.
As for the main reason to buy it? Not worth it in my opinion. Being a professional sailor, I have found it a completely waste of money due to the poor navigational functions. Here some details of the Sailing app (which, by the way, you can install in much cheaper Garmin watches):
- You cannot select which waypoint of a route start navigating to. If you don’t start from the beginning, GPS navigation is useless.
- Routes made in apps other than the watch itself (I.e. Navionics, Garmin Explore) just show ETA and distance to the final destination, making the watch useless as navigational support.
- Nautical units only work for speed and distance traveled, all other distances are shown in either kms or miles. Why having a SAILING WATCH that does that?
- VMG only works if connected to a chart plotter. For this expensive “sailing watch” I find that pretty poor. (My 90’s GPS would give me VMG).
- It doesn’t provide GPS signal to a paired tablet in which you are watching charts, for example.
I do appreciate good support from Garmin’s team but overall it is a waaay too expensive for what you would expect from a Garmin “sailing” Watch.
