User Reviews:
- “The buttons on the watch work really well, and were easy to learn – I don’t want to think about how to use them while I’m running, and after the first couple of times using it I don’t have to. They feel responsive and solid. I’ve run in the rain and had no problems with moisture damage.”
- “The Garmin 110 is an outstanding GPS watch for anyone who doesn’t need all the bells and whistles of the more advanced models. This is also the first GPS watch that is small and light enough to be worn day-to-day and actually looks like a watch.”
- “I’ve had my Garmin 110 for about a week. It has all the features I could need. It is easy to use and compact. I’m able to monitor current mile pace, distance and overall time. The other reviews are very harsh. I’m a first time GPS user and I’ll never go back to running without it. It has motivated me to speed up my pace and it is fun to see your progress on the Garmin Connect website. I have not yet tried the heart rate monitor”
- “Bottom line: this watch gives you a lot of useful information, and even more when you download it to the Garmin Connect site. Unlike other Garmin watches, it doesn’t give some extra cycling information and the heart rate monitor doesn’t work in the pool, so it’s really a watch for runners, not triathletes. But for semi-serious to very serious runners, it gives you everything you need, without the bells and whistles–and the headaches–of the 405.”
