After 2.5 yrs, my fitbit died. Since I ran a 25km race last year, I figured this would be the perfect time to upgrade and invest a little more into a good sports watch with standalone gps and better battery life — something that would confidently last me a 50km-race someday

I initially thought of buying the FR 965, but upon checking Amazon, I found an Epix Pro for the same price of $499, and ordered it immediately. I just got it yesterday :D

I went all in and I also got 2 extra bands for rotation:
• Original Band for workouts since it’s easier to clean
• Nylon band for 90% of the day (dis shi so comfy)
• Titanium band for when I’m in the office or in formal events — which is ~5x / month since I usually work from home

I have to admit, I really hate the white plastic sides of the watch. I really wish they had just kept it silver. But hey, beggars can’t be choosers, right? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Anyway, I really love this watch. I’m still exploring and doing tons of research online. Any not-so-popular tips you can give?

Just bought the metal band, very nice quality, still undecided about how wearable it is, it not ‘giving’ when my wrist shrinks/expands. What are others’ thought son it?

Ciao,
un dubbio datemi una mano

Ho un EPIX PRO 2 ZAFFIRO 47mm di 18 mesi che ho rovinato esteticamente irreparabile e Garmin mi propone una cambio ritirando il mio e con 320€ mi darebbero uno nuovo identico con 12 mesi garanzia

Oppure

Forerunner 970 47mm nuovo a 585€ (in questo caso venderei il mio Epix abbattendo la spesa);

1 secondo voi?
2 uso per corsa, camminate e palestra (non nuoto mai);
3 quanto potrei rivendere l’epix (47mm pro zaffiro 6 medi garanzia residui scatola etc)

Grazie
