The heart rate monitor stopped working just short of 3 years after purchase. I would expect the money spent on this watch would have it lasting longer than that. While it worked, I have zero complaints.

Worked Great. Until It Didn’t.
This particular 745 was a refurbished replacement since my other one died from moisture. Thought they were meant for swimming? About 100 days after arrival (10 days past warranty period) it decided to randomly shut down during activities. It does it multiple times with in minutes. It’s completely useless for gps tracking. It does function as a very expensive digital watch. So there’s that…. Looking for a replacement that isn’t a Garmin.
