1) It's based on the original Instinct, which is getting long in the tooth. Tough as nails, has all the basics and good battery life, but at the end of the day…it's still 4 year old tech. Not saying it's not a decent deal, just know that it won't have all the features of the Instinct 2 and that software support for it may trail off a lot sooner than buying a newer model.

2) The "e-sports" branding was a horrible mismatch with a GPS watch that was originally targeted at hikers, backpackers and hunters. Just never caught on.

One thing I was not planning to do today was by a smartwatch.

I just bought a smartwatch.

Damn this site.

Same as the regular instinct. The gaming eSports branding did not appeal to that market. The color is not bad. I love the instinct linen . Only this better would be the solar variant.

So there is an instinct 2 and this is leftover from the instinct. So if you like the idea of a long lasting gps and heart rate monitoring fitness watch, this is it. Not flashy, but functional. I love mine for outdoor recreation like hiking and hunting. I rarely use it for notifications or changing music. It's nice to see that a person is calling and more.

Great watch - lasts 16+ hours with GPS on if you turn off HR and bluetooth. Took me to Whitney and a few other 20+ mile hikes

Is there a backlight or something similar? Last memory LCD watch I had was a Pebble a long time ago.

great price for a ruggedized fitness watch with smart features - plenty more expensive ones out there. Not as good for golfers and triathloning as some of the other Garmins. I wear this one more than my ForeRunner 935 watch - which has better features for running (like pregrams you can preset for yourself - say intervals, etc). I keep offering to buy one for my boys, it's such a good price.
