According to our smartwatch expert
The Garmin Instinct is a robust watch suitable for any adventure or profession. The watch is resistant to large temperature differences and is shockproof. In addition, the Instinct is water-resistant up to 100 meters. That means you can safely swim or dive with it. This smartwatch can measure your heart rate, steps, and sleep, among other things. The watch is also equipped with a GPS sensor. You can upload your own routes and the Instinct will show you the way. Did you get get lost? The watch remembers the route that you took, so that you come home the same way. You can easily connect the Instinct to your smartphone and receive notifications of messages and calls on your wrist.
Note: you will not receive a home charger. Do you want to charge the watch via the power outlet? Then order a home charger.
