Best Overall Fitness watch/tracker
It counts laps in the pool for me during training. In fact , it’s able to track multiple functions at one time. So, if you’re looking for a watch that can do pretty much everything. This is your last stop….

Mostly good
The watch does well overall, but I’ve had a couple of issues. I’ve had issues where it stops mid-swim without pushing buttons (so I was put on the beta software as a work-around). And, I get a random alert every 12 minutes that will not go away on my run mode…really nice when doing a marathon (at the end of an Ironman …plus during all the training sessions?!) to have a random alert that reminds me every 12 minutes that there is no fix for this phantom alert at this time)?!

HR monitor innaccurate
This is my fourth Garmin Forerunner. I miss my 945! The 965 has a very inaccurate HR monitor. I've tried every position on my wrist and all the tricks on chats, still does not work. Garmin sent me a refurbished replacement, same issue. Manually checking HR while wearing confirms it's way off. I miss the 945, far more accurate.

Everything you need and more
This watch has everything you need as a runner. Coupled with a heart rate monitor, you get more metrics than you will ever understand. I use it mostly for running. I also use it for swimming and biking. It is very accurate with the gps. I would say this is more of an expert level watch but beginners can use it as well. It monitors sleep, body battery, training levels and loads, as well as a plethora of info that I haven’t tapped into.

This thing lives on me now. I love how light it is. It doesn’t heat up. The battery last forever. Data is very useful. As a permanent appendage on my wrist, I do have a few gripes. 1. it isn’t nearly as intuitive as my apple watch. 2. It often stays in previous areas for a day or two after leaving (weather/timezones). 3. It doesn’t have the feature that wakes you up based on sleeping patterns.

Cracked Screen Within a Week and A Half.
I had brought this in 8/27/25. On 9/9/25, I saw the Screen had cracked. I don’t know how but I didn’t buy any warranty because I thought the glorilla glass going to be durable. I only this a few running sessions and a couple of gym sessions. I had the Apple Series 7 for several years and it held up right good. I would of though garmin would be more durable since I got the 965

After 3 645Ms
After 3:00 6:45 M's all broke. Where the watch band meets the actual watch I decided to leave Garmin. I went to Cora's and it was horrible so I came back and treated myself to the 965 and it's a world of difference. Everything you'd expect from stats contactless payment, music, beautiful display, and a fairly decent battery. I'm very happy with it. Oddly, I have two other friends who have the exact same watch
