What did I pay for? This product is a failure.

Reviews are not published on the official Garmin website.
Shame on the clock. I like them very much. When choosing a watch, a weighty argument for me was precisely the period of operation of the watch without recharging. Very disappointed. I do not recommend buying anything from this company, although before that I was an ardent supporter of garmin (there are 4 garmin devices in the family) and I recommended them to all my friends and acquaintances. Judging by the comments on the Internet, this is not an isolated case.
I bought in the official Garmin store, my appeal to them is ignored.

Pros

I really like the watch, the ability to send quick messages from the watch, garmin pay, water resistance, bright design.

Cons

Garmin marketers have programmed the watch so that exactly one year after purchase (as soon as the warranty ends), the battery will quickly discharge. For a day and a half with the heart rate monitor turned off, the clock is discharged to 0, instead of the prescribed week in normal mode. Sounds like Apple's policy of planned obsolescence. In general, get ready that as soon as the warranty ends, your watch will turn into a pumpkin.
