Garmin Instinct 2, Camo-Edition, GPS Outdoor Watch, Multi-GNSS Support, Tracback Routing, Graphite Camo (Renewed), 45 MM

This watch is perfect. It’s got a great battery and tracks everything. I got a refurbished watch and it was like new. It is easy to use and customizable for what info you see and how it’s laid out. It connects to my phone seamlessly. It will tell you when someone is calling and you can view texts. Even though you can’t respond, it is nice to have because I miss things when my phone is in my pocket. This has been a crucial tool in my fitness journey and has helped me get my workouts tuned it. %100 recommend!

Good watch, reasonable price. I returned it and went with amazfit though because the value was a little better. If you have a bunch of garmin stuff I would rec9mend this because you can link it to stuff like the inreach or the gpsmap. It's rugged and easy to use. Fits well and seems to be accurate when compared to an amazfit watch when worn side by side. Overall if you like it esthetically you won't be sorry with its functionability. Buy it

Best watch I’ve ever had tbh it’s way nicer than my Apple Watch Ultra lmao. It’s really easy to use and it’s super easy to connect to as well plus it doesn’t weigh that much on my wrist like my Apple Watch does, PS I love the body battery it features and it’s so easy to read. Plus it’s Bluetooth so it’s super simple to go from device to device.

I'd heard good things about Garmin, so after giving it some thought, I bit and got a refurbished Garmin Instinct 2 - no solar, since there isn't a ton of regular sun here and I'm on a budget. This was absolutely the worth the money (in my opinion), and has improved my overall QOL. The app is leagues better than the Fitbit app, in my opinion, and I love the customizability and the options I have re: watch faces. The battery life is also insane - if you have GPS off, it lasts for over two weeks (I only turn GPS on for activities here and there, and still get over a week between charges; I like to charge it once it's at half charge or so). The band that it came with tends to get smelly with 24/7 wear, as is the case with silicone bands, and I found it a bit annoying to adjust. Thankfully, there are a lot of options online from third-party brands for bands to accessorize with, so I got some stretchier bands and swapped those in, and it's really comfortable. Seems to be accurate with regard to heart rate and the like. Sleep I'm a little mixed on - I toss and turn a lot, so it sometimes logs my restless sleep as wakefulness, but it's definitely gotten me to pay more attention to my sleep schedule, which has resulted in more consistent sleep on my end. I like the e-ink(?) display since it's easier to read in bright light, and is probably one of the reasons the watch's charge lasts so long. It's hard to read in the dark, but pushing a button backlights the display so you can see the time. Also worth noting is that I have notifications off - I don't need to be plugging in 24/7, especially not on my walks, which also probably saves battery. In general, it's the customizability, and the fact that I can turn certain features off or on at will that is a huge selling point for me. It might not be for everyone, especially if you're looking for something "fancier" with a color display, but it meets my needs. Final note on durability: I haven't tested its water resistance because I don't want to push it, but it's perfectly fine without a screen protector! I've dropped it a few times and it's still fine, probably because the raised edge means that, if dropped on a flat surface, the screen isn't taking the brunt of the impact.

Second smart watch purchased. First had lousy software. Really pleased with this Garmin though. Great look, easy to use, software tracks what I need. Highly recommended.

This does so many things for such a reasonable price. I just wanted a durable smart timepiece mostly for health and activity metrics. I wanted app notifications and basic messaging. It does this impeccably and a lot more stuff that I don't expect to use. Spending significantly more to get color was not a priority. I've also had issues with touchscreen watches and didn't need that either. There are lots of faces available and the customizability is amazing. You can also get tons of apps for controlling other devices, navigation, different sport specific apps, etc. Check out some of the online reviews. Display is readily visible in daylight and from what I've managed to do, the sensors are quite good as well. My only "con" so far is the exposed charging port that will collect grunge and may corrode over time. Come on Garmin. I got the little (inexpensive )silicon plugs that should protect the charge port. Going to try a different band more my style even though the stock band is ok. The Garmin connect app is also quite good though I'm still exploring.

I love this watch, it has so many features and the battery lasts for weeks. It's easy to customize through the Garmin connect phone app. You can track so many activities and it even has satellite capabilities to help track hikes. It also has a great sleep report that tracks your physical recovery from intensive workouts or activities. My only gripe is that it the watch band was way too small but I saw that same issue on other reviews too. I ended up replacing the watch band with an elastic one but I love this watch, more so than my Samsung smartwatch. I've also been having a hard time finding a screen protector that fits I've tried screen protectors listed for the Instinct S2 but it's almost like this screen is smaller than the other colors.

Works great. I do not normally buy refurbished but the price was so good and the warranty is similar to the factory. I love the workout functions, heart rate, and sleep tracking.

No sirve el producto no prendió y lo regresé y no me dieron reembolso.

Great watch, works perfectly! I’ve been using it continuously for 5 days and still have 16 days of battery life left. It’s less distracting than a smartwatch, yet packed with apps for every kind of adventure. Body Battery and Morning Reports are some of my favorite features.

Great purchase!!!!!

Bought this for my husband, he loves it! Works perfectly and for a fraction of the price. Could even tell it was refurbished

It was just like a brand new watch! Great features and durability for a great price. Glad I switched to Garmin from Fitbit!
