Yes, West Africa is very different. Where they have less than an ideal track record is tackling trickier bugs – such as one that seemingly popped up for some Fenix 3HR users this past fall – making their barometers pretty much useless.  The company has dragged their heels for 4-5 months now (despite my constant reminders about the topic), and their most recent response is just as unhelpful.  There’s a very real slice of the population who have units that just don’t work (there’s, of course, a far larger chunk of the population that are just fine).  It’s these sorts of incidents that are less settling when they happen. ガーミン(GARMIN) fenix 5 Plus Sapphire Ti Black 010-01988-84が活動量計ストアでいつでもお買い得。当日お急ぎ便対象商品は、当日お届け可能です。アマゾン配送商品は、通常配送無料（一部除く）。 GPS accuracy: Heard anything?

So I replaced it another time and the story repeated itself after a week with the 3. watch. I tried the procedure Garmin’s online owners manual stated without success either. Only the Fenix 5 Plus and Fenix 6 Pro series do. I tried switching to the Stac’s Bluetooth Channel, and while my watch can detect/find it, it won’t connect to it. Its safer and its fun!

Anyone have the experience of the watch refusing to charge? I had one GPS track go haywire during a cross country race with GPS+GLONASS enabled and a clear sky with no obstructions. The optical HR is rather poor to my opinion.
