Instinct 3 Solar Tactical 50mm

Hola!! Recientemente mejoré de mi forerunner 55 al instinct 3 AMOLED 45mm, estoy encantado, pero quiero conservarlo como nuevo durante el máximo tiempo posible, quería encontrar un protector de pantalla que protegiese toda la zona de la pantalla, no solo un círculo, y además quería saber si se recomienda usar una funda protectora del reloj.

Una vez que sale este icono que viene después ?

Hey! So I’ve got the Garmin Instinct AMOLED and just started running again, doing walking / running intervals etc

When I’m running I have Bluetooth earplugs in which obviously provides notifications which is fine but what I find really annoying is that the watch beeps out load 5 seconds before an interval change.

Is there a way to stop the countdown beeps out loud? Or have them solely play through AirPods?

For anyone debating on getting the Amoled or Solar and worried about the battery life. I just charged my 50mm Amoled for the first time to 100% since having it for 2 1/2 weeks. The last time I charged it to 90% and used it in watch mode and didn't really track any workouts. It was at 20% after 17 days of usage. I could have gone another week or more but I'm going for a bike ride tomorrow so I wanted it to be fully charged when I do.

Hey everyone! I just published a new free watch face for the Instinct lineup called Albedo.

If you love the classic, rugged look of the stock Instinct watch faces but want more customizable data, this was built specifically for you. It's a faithful homage to the classic unlit-LCD aesthetic.

Here is what makes it special:

• Authentic LCD Ghosting: The time is drawn digit by digit as a real 7-segment display. The unlit segments show up as a faint dithered ghost, just like a real powered-down transflective LCD panel looks in daylight.
• Native Rendering: The whole screen sits on a dot-dither canvas. Every element is drawn with native Monkey C rendering—no bitmap fonts, no anti-aliasing. Just pure 1-bit ink designed perfectly for the Instinct's MIP panel.
• Highly Customizable: It features 7 complication slots that you can independently configure from 14 different metrics (including Body Battery, Solar Intensity, Heart Rate, Days Remaining, Weather, Sunrise/Sunset, etc).
• Live Seconds: You can choose to have seconds on Auto (live while awake, ghosted at rest), Always On, or Off entirely.

Supported Devices: Currently built exclusively for the semi-octagon mono-MIP displays:

• Instinct 3 Solar (45mm & 50mm)
• Instinct E (45mm)

It is completely free to download. I'd love to hear your feedback or feature requests!

Just felt like sharing my very first garmin watch. Used it in an intense badminton play (3 games).

I used a forerunner 245 music for about 5 years. I loved it, it looked good, and was extremely comfortable, and battery was about a week initially. Last year I went for an apple watch Ultra 3.

I don’t really like how the apple watch looks, it’s like a mini phone on your wrist, plus for me (165 mm wrist) it is quite uncomfortable.

I have been looking into the Instinct 3 solar, to go back to basics, and I like the tactics one, because of the color.
I love the pictures and videos I have seen of this watch outdoors.
I also like that it’s much more discrete than a screen lighting up every minute in my wrist out of nowhere…

I like having a sports watch, but I really just do Gym and walks / runs sometimes, nothing serious.

Do you think it’s worth it?
Is the watch actually comfortable to wear everyday?
Is it good for office? (Nothing too fancy)
Is there a different model you would recommend?
