Forerunner 405 Garmin Watch

Jumat, 04 September 2009


A good looking sport watch by Garmin, Forerunner 405. We can almost wear all day every day – something impossible to do with the older 305 and 205.
Using ANT+Sport technology, the Forerunner 405 sends workout data to the user’s computer via automatic wireless data transfer… the computer automatically syncs with the Forerunner 405 as soon as the user enters the room Runners, joggers, cyclists and hikers can send courses, goals and workouts to their Forerunner 405 before they begin, and then the data gets sent back to the users computer when the workout is over. Athletes can log their workouts, track their totals, set goals, share workouts with coaches, friends and family and participate in an online fitness community at Garmin’s online training site at connect.garmin.com .
Like previous models Forerunner 405 also features the Virtual Partner whose pace you can adjust as you wish – which may defeat the purpose of a challenge for some people.
Expected to cost about $300, the Forerunner 405 can track your speed, distance, heart rate and location. The new user interface is a touch bezel on the face of the watch which makes navigating the menus easier. The bezel responds to tapping, holding or running a finger along it.
The watch itself does not come with a heart rate monitor but supports it, in addition to an optional speed/cadence bike sensor which can help cyclists monitor their pedaling cadence and wheel speed.
