The back of the box has a swimmer doing a perfect butterfly stroke – something I’ll be unlikely to ever emulate. It also has the little fake-display sticker on it, thus making my photos look semi-blurry on the watch itself. The Garmin Swim unit comes boxed in the standard Garmin fitness box with the clear plastic front enabling you to see the watch face from the outside: With that, let’s get onto the review! Unboxing: Also, because the technology world constantly changes, I try and go back and update these reviews as new features and functionality are added – or if bugs are fixed. But, if I’ve missed something or if you spot something that doesn’t quite jive – just let me know and I’ll be happy to get it all sorted out. I write these reviews because I’m inherently a curious person with a technology background (my day job), and thus I try and be as complete as I can. Lastly, at the end of the day keep in mind I’m just like any other regular triathlete out there. If you find my review useful, you can use any of the Amazon links from this page to help support future reviews. Sorta like hiking in wilderness trails – leave only footprints. Once I’m done with it, it heads back to Garmin. It’s been running pre-release software, though the hardware is the final version. My goal is to leave no stone unturned – both the good and the bad.īecause I want to be transparent about my reviews, this unit was provided by Garmin as a media trial. I try and cover every conceivable thing you might do with the device and then poke at it a bit more. Think of them more like reference guides than quick and easy summaries. Like all my reviews, they tend to be pretty in depth (perhaps overly so) – but that’s just my trademark DC Rainmaker way of doing things. I’ve been using the watch for a while now, and have had a good opportunity test it out in my day to day swims, and understand just how it ticks (and tocks). Today, Garmin announced the Garmin Swim, which is a dedicated swim tracking watch that builds upon the accelerometer based technology that was introduced within the FR910XT to track swimming data in a pool environment.
