Worth the money
Bought this as a gift for my partner and he loves the watch. Wears it daily and it is a good insight during his workouts. Battery last ages and it looks good and not too bulky. Definitely recommend!

From apple back to Garmin
Swapped back to Garmin after having Apple Watch for a few years, if you run, Garmin is the watch to have

Good watch
I brought this watch for my husband, he loves it, likes the notifications so he doesn't always have to check his phone! Also the battery life is good, and it is always connecting to your phone to update .

The previous answer is INCORRECT
Took this from Garmin website

3 Select a network.
4 If necessary, enter the password for the network.
The watch connects to the network, and the network is added to the list of saved networks. The watch
