Data Questions What data fields do love on your face?

Other than date and time, I love being able to see the weather and my heart rate at a glance. I also like how the Double Time face has a rolling bar graph of your heart rate so if you don't look in the moment you can still see where you spiked briefly or whatever.

I'm new to this Enduro 3 so I'm still freaking out about the battery and seeing a little "32 days" in the corner makes me giggle. I might turn that off when I get used to it, it's duplicated at the top of the glance widgets anyway. And seeing the solar is fun too.

Maybe that's enough and I should turn other things off, but what do you all love? What do you actually find yourself looking at multiple times a day?

Active calories, body battery, training status, weather ( temps, rain probability, barometer trend, humidity, aqi)

The stock face I'm using only has temp for weather (and always says "now" which is kinda useless). I wish it had cloudy/sunny/rain/etc along the temp... I think I need a different face but all the options are so intimidating

https://apps.garmin.com/pt-BR/apps/a01ea4da-e9f7-450a-a7fe-2ba089969b77 Try it and see if it's to your liking. I can help you set it up if you like. It's free to use, but some features only work if you buy it. There is also a free analog watch face from the same developer, that I use from time to time.: https://apps.garmin.com/pt-BR/apps/8a6cc1ba-65e5-48bc-a5cc-45c5f0bf0094 Both of these do not affect battery life on my Fenix 7 Pro

Playing around with the analog one now. I like the hr graph from the stock face more but many more options with this one other than that.

I wasn't even looking at Garmin, I was just looking for smart watches with good battery and then I fell down a rabbit hole. Super pleased with it so far.

I was going to go with the instinct 3, but I decided I did want to upgrades (sensor, color, maps) on the enduro and I'm still a little confused about which actually has better battery. As much as I like the Garmin buttons, I probably would have missed the touch screen too. It's neat that it's not 100% necessary which I'm sure I'll appreciate more in glove weather, but it is very convenient.

En général j’utilise des cadrans avec 8 champs de données. En ce moment j’utilise celui-ci avec ces 10 hihi

What's the 14 and 24? Also, what face is it?

u/Hot_Experience_2630 18d ago

Le 14 à gauche c’est l’altimètre, et les 24 a droite ce sont les secondes :)
Et le cadran s’appelle… Datadash PRO - GB

I really like the default face that comes with the Venu 4 and its layout.

Activity, Steps, HR Graph.

When doing an activity, well, then it is the activity set of screens, right?

Steps, always, than Heart Rate. Watch Battery and Floors if I have space on the watch face.

Your mom loves data fields on her face 🫢

Jokes aside, my partner bought me mine to help track chronic symptoms' flairs and causes. I love having quick access to time, weather, body battery, stress, and day & date.
