"Three important points" that I would like you to refer to when choosing Garmin
Next, I would like to introduce " three important points " that I would like you to refer to when choosing Garmin.
Choose the latest products whenever possible
Even if it is called a smartwatch, it is still in the category of electrical appliances, so the newer it is, the more advanced its basic performance is.
In particular, battery life is evolving rapidly, so I think it's important to choose the latest product as much as possible.
In the complete guide by series, the release date is listed, so please refer to it.
If budget is not a problem, choose overspec
It is the same with computers, but I think that if you over-spec a little, it will be easier to prevent problems later on.
If there are no problems, it will be psychologically stress-free, so I think that is better.
Of course, those who have a clear need for functions or who have a specific product they want are not subject to this opinion.
See the product and try it on
(Isuzu G-Time store photo)
Customers who don't have a specialty store or a major electronics retailer nearby buy it online! I think I'm going to get scolded. . .
There are many things that you can't understand unless you see the actual product, such as size and weight.
Since it is a product that you want to use for about 3 to 5 years, if there is a good shop in the nearby area, we recommend that you visit it once.
Also, I asked on the phone, but it seems that there are not many shops that can do the initial setting for linking with smartphones.
By the way, at our shop, if you have time when purchasing at a physical store, we will handle the initial settings properly!
If you don't like being bothered, please use the actual store.
Below is information about our store.

What can you do with a Garmin smartwatch? Basic functions
From here, we will introduce the basic performance of the Garmin smartwatch.
[Basic function 1] Make daily life more convenient
Equipped with a wealth of functions that make daily life more convenient and comfortable.
Suica payment function and music function are especially convenient.
By linking your smartwatch with Suica, you can shop on the go.
The music function allows you to listen to music stored in the smartwatch if you have Bluetooth-equipped earphones.
When I go running, I shop at a convenience store nearby.
There is no problem if you have one GARMIN smart watch without having a smartphone or wallet.
Feel free to go out.
[Basic function 2] SNS and email notifications can be checked at hand
If you have downloaded the app to your smartphone and turned on the notification function, you can check notifications and contents on your watch.
Of course, you can also check the contents of LINE, emails, and various SNS notifications ◎
By the way, when checking emails and LINE on the watch screen on many smartwatches, you can often only see the beginning of the text, but Garmin allows you to check most of the content of LINE and emails. can do.
For example, if it is a work-related LINE message, you can use your watch to check if it is urgent, and if you are not in a hurry, you can put it off and reply later when you have time.
What is particularly convenient is that you can check LINE etc. without marking it as read.
You can also smartly check notifications at hand when you can't take your hands off, such as while driving a car.
For incoming calls, if you link it with your smartphone's address book, you can see who called you, and even if it's not registered, the phone number will be displayed.
It is also possible to take a call with a smart watch. (If you connect the headset, you can answer the call as it is.)
However, Garmin products cannot make calls directly from the watch.
*Some products from other companies allow you to talk on the watch.
However, since the function is similar to a smartphone speakerphone, the drawback is that you can't hear the conversation when there are people around you...
Honestly, it's hard to use except when there's no one around (such as in a car)...
[Basic function 3] Try using an active tracker (activity meter)
< What you can do with the activity meter >
1. Know your daily steps and calories burned
By using such data, it is possible to use it for health management and diet, and to increase motivation.
2. Sleep time can be measured
An important sleep to get rid of the fatigue of the day.
By looking at your sleep data, you may be interested in the quality of your sleep.
3. Health management with heart rate monitor
The greatest advantage of a watch-type heart rate monitor is that it can be reliably measured without detaching.
You can manage your physical condition by checking the changes in your heart rate at hand.
The advantage of heart rate monitors is that they provide various support during exercise such as running and walking in addition to daily health management.

INSTINCT COMPLETE GUIDE
What is Instinct
Among Garmin, I think that the Instinct is a watch that you can fully enjoy in Out Door activities (climbing, skiing, surfing, survival games).
Of course, the design that suits the outdoors is also good, and it has "100m water resistance", "high heat resistance" and "shock resistance" so that you can "play outside" with all your might.
Isn't it such a smart watch that "makes the day exciting" ?
July 16, 2020
DUAL POWER for solar charging has been added to Instinct.
[Comparison with conventional Instinct]
Operating time is greatly improved by installing solar charging support and power manager
Now supports heart rate measurement underwater.
The glass material has been changed to Corning Gorilla Glass DX.
Added exclusive activities for fishing and hunting
Instinct 3 basic points
toughness
After all, the basics of outdoor watches are “ tough ”.
Instinct is designed to be used in a variety of fields, including 100m water resistance , as well as high heat and impact resistance .
Surprisingly, it is not well known, but Garmin referred to MIL Standard 810G, an environmental resistance test of the US Department of Defense, as a test standard for this "toughness".
Garmin conducts tests according to this MIL standard 810G for testing standards for heat resistance, impact resistance, and water resistance.
Since it has a quality that can clear (conform to) mil-spec, there is a sense of security in the watch.
Being protected with high specs naturally reduces the risk of damage and failure.
Instincts can enjoy "playing outside" to their heart's content!
long battery
When using a smartwatch, it is still charging that feels troublesome .
I think people who are accustomed to wearing watches will feel that way.
Smartwatches have many useful functions, but they also consume a lot of power.
Recently, each manufacturer has been gradually increasing the battery life, but I think that there are still many people who charge every day.
Even so, Garmin originally had a reputation for battery life,
For this Instinct, DUAL POWER, which supports solar charging, can last up to about 24 days + 30 days in smartwatch mode .
In battery saving mode, it has a tremendous operating time of "up to about 56 days + unlimited" .
(Solar power generation: when worn all day and left for 3 hours a day under 50,000 lux outdoors)
In addition, even conventional non-solar models can continue to be used in smartwatch mode for up to about 14 days .
(Only in smartwatch mode)
In fact, there are quite a lot of voices saying that after using Garmin, the hassle of charging has disappeared.
The charging part is also progressing rapidly, but there are many other manufacturers that do not last that long even after several years.
(The more convenient the function, the more power it consumes, so there are some things that can't be helped.)
We use many smartwatches at work, but I think Garmin's remarkable point is that there is almost no hassle of charging.
Design suitable for outdoors
One of the attractions of this Instinct is the design that is perfect for the outdoors .
In order to enjoy outdoor sports to the fullest, I think this design was born after pursuing functionality.
In terms of enjoying outdoor fashion, the large number of color variations is also attractive, and you can express yourself freely.
I want to enjoy fashion properly even at leisure events such as camping and BBQ! I think this watch is perfect for you.
Functions common to the series
Here is the performance/function table common to the Instinct series.
It supports quite a lot of activities.
Although it is a simple version, it also has a monochrome navigation function.
SPORTS FUNCTIONS
DAILY FUNCTIONS
Three series introduction
From here, we will introduce the Instinct by model.
There are three main models
In the basic " INSTINCT ",
" INSTINCT TIDE " is a model that supports activities in the sea equipped with a tide graph.
" INSTINCT TACTICAL " that can be used in extreme conditions such as military
will be
Let's look at them one by one.
INSTINCT
INSTINCT for active people such as working out and leisure
[Recommended here]
At this price, it supports navigation functions and ABC sensors, and is strong for activities such as mountain climbing and skiing.
Abundant color variations, easy to express individuality
Very cool in the outdoor scene
For training such as running, exercise bike, muscle training, yoga, cardio and pool swimming
[This is a disadvantage]
Because it is chemically strengthened or Gorilla Glass, the glass may break or be scratched.
Because there are many colorful models, it is difficult to use on-time
Up to 56 days + unlimited
* Solar power generation: When worn all day and left for 3 hours a day under 50,000 lux outdoor conditions
INSTINCT TIDE
INSTINCT of people who enjoy sea activities
[Recommended here]
Model for marine activities such as surfing and fishing
At this price, it supports navigation functions and ABC sensors, and is strong for activities such as mountain climbing and skiing.
Bright colors that match the sea
For training such as running, exercise bike, muscle training, yoga, cardio and pool swimming
[This is a disadvantage]
Because it is chemically strengthened or Gorilla Glass, the glass may break or be scratched.
Because there are many colorful models, it is difficult to use on-time
Special functions installed in "SURF/TIDE"
Tide graph that allows you to check the ebb and flow of the tide
Tide information essential for surfing and fishing.
"INSTINCT TIDE" displays a tide graph (tidal table) that allows you to check the times of high tide and low tide.
You can check the tide information of any place by entering the latitude and longitude as well as the information of the current location by GPS.
Useful functions in case of emergency at sea
MOB (Man Over Board) that guides to the falling point on the sea
"INSTINCT" continues to watch over you even in unexpected situations such as falling off a ship at sea.
If you use the MOB function when it falls, it will immediately register its position.
It navigates in the direction of the registered drop point even if it is swept away by the tide.
Up to 56 days + unlimited
* Solar power generation: When worn all day and left for 3 hours a day under 50,000 lux outdoor conditions

Verification of ability in popular activities
climbing
What are the functions required for a mountaineering watch?
Until a while ago, the ABC watch with the three sacred treasures of "altimeter", "barometer" and "compass" was the representative mountaineering watch.
Recently, the number of high-spec models that can use "navigation function" using "GPS function" is increasing.
Of course it is important that the function is great,
When used outdoors, "waterproof function", "shockproof function" and "long battery life" are also important.
After comparing many mountaineering watches, I think this "INSTINCT" is the watch with the best cost performance.
List of "functions for mountaineering" installed in INSTINCT
"Altimeter" "Barometer" "Compass" ABC function called "Three Sacred Treasures" for mountaineering
"Navigation function" Even in the unlikely event, it is safe and ensures higher safety of mountain climbing.
"Waterproof function", "Shockproof function", and "Heat resistant performance" 3 major functions required for outdoor watches
"Long battery life" Up to 14 hours in GPS mode used while climbing
INSTINCT does not have map information, but it has a navigation function using GPS and ABC sensors.
For example, you can use it like this for a sense of security.
Point information of 100 famous mountains in Japan is installed, and navigation to the top is possible
Navigation is possible for other mountains by setting the coordinates as the destination (such as the summit)
There is also navigation that returns to the starting point even from the middle of climbing when the road is lost.
It's nice to be able to choose the navigation settings according to various cases.
I think that there are many people who carry smartphones, so while on the way, check if you are walking the correct course with your watch.
It might be a good idea to check the trajectory in detail on your smartphone while eating or taking a break.
running
Compared to the main model of the run "Fore Athlete", its performance is simple,
INSTINCT can also record running data.
It's not multi-functional, but it's simple and the basic functions are solid.
Distance/Speed/Pitch
Lap pace, lap time, lap distance
Heart rate measurement enables running according to purpose and level
And so on.
In addition, the training page is divided into up to 3 parts + round window
If you use the navigation function, you can run without getting lost even on a business trip.
Anyway, INSTINCT is perfect for you who enjoy "outdoor play" to the max.
Please choose INSTINCT to accompany your outdoor life!

The Complete Guide to MARQ
What is MARQ
Everyone reading this blog is interested in smartwatches.
Garmin is active in many fields other than smart watches, such as entering the cockpit system of Honda's private jet,
It is a famous brand in various fields such as car navigation systems and fish finders.
By the way, what kind of company do you think Garmin was originally?
So the answer is GPS manufacturers.
Based on the various analysis capabilities that can be obtained from GPS, we have advanced into various categories and are a leading company that has quickly achieved success in each field. .
These categories can be broadly divided into 6 categories.
The “MARQ” series is a smartwatch model that incorporates the know-how we have cultivated in each field.
Dedicated functions for each model are quite sharp so that you can feel the greatness of Garmin for each category.
[Golf] A scientifically analyzed virtual caddy supports you
[Car] Measure your lap time on 250 race courses around the world
[Ocean] Check dedicated functions for yacht races and fish finder data on your watch
[Sky] Dedicated model for aviation, capable of navigating to nearby airports in emergencies
[Mountains] Pre-installed topographic maps of the highest peaks for climbing
[Fitness] Special model for top athletes
At first glance, it seems that many of you are complaining that you can't use such a function even if you want to use it . . .
So if you are interested in this watch,
People who are obsessed with play, or people who make a living professionally, like pilots and gym owners.
People who choose it as the best model of smartwatch to wear on time
heavy Garmin user
I have an image.
Garmin's customer image is an active person who actively enjoys life (so-called conscious people) ,
Above all, I think that people who choose MARQ are people who are enjoying their lives.
in me,
Mark = Top-of-the-line Garmin model = Owner enjoying life to the fullest
(laughs)
In the cases where I actually served customers at the store, they wanted to measure laps on the circuit, or when fishing on their own boats, they wanted to use it in conjunction with Garmin's fish finder.
There were many customers who thought, "This person must be enjoying life very much."
I think there are many ways to enjoy watches.
I think it's really nice to have a person who can make a selection that allows you to get a glimpse of the person's view of life .
I think that this way of choosing is the way to arrive at a watch that is "like that person" or "perfect for that person."
Of course, the people around me just thought so, and I guess I just bought what I wanted (laughs).
However, as a watchmaker, I am impressed that people who have such options are " really stylish ."
While other smartwatches use casual materials to keep prices down,
I think the MARQ series is a product closer to a full-fledged wristwatch than using a titanium material for the case.
If you look for rivals only by price range, it will be TAG Heuer and Louis Vuitton Connected.
The direction we are aiming for is slightly different from these brands, and in terms of functionality, we have reached a level that is unrivaled, so I feel that it is truly a unique watch.
Unlike flashy brand designs, MARQ is also a watch that doesn't choose a scene to look like on time. .
Also, the MARQ series is not a product that can be handled anywhere.Even Garmin's authorized dealers only sell it at some stores , so it's not like anyone can see it anywhere.
Because it's a special product, I don't think many people wear it yet, so I think it's a great way to express your individuality .
Why don't you express your lifestyle firmly with this MARQ?
Common features of all MARQ series watches (partial)
From here, we will introduce the functions common to the series.
Geospatial Information Authority of Japan topographic map & Japan detailed walking map (Obunsha topographic map only for ADVENTURER)
The higher the Garmin model, the more map-related data is preinstalled.
This MARQ also has a wonderful map relationship.
In addition to this, it is equipped with the best functions for each activity, such as running and climbing, which we have introduced so far.
Garmin's desire to create a smartwatch with the best features is very clear.
On top of that, I think it's a product with really great performance because it has special functions for each category.
Advantages and disadvantages common to the MARQ series
I will introduce the functions of each product later, but first, I will introduce the "advantages" and "disadvantages" common to the MARQ series.

Garmin has "special models" with functions for certain sports.
Here you will find detailed information about models for golf, scuba diving and swimming.
Special model for golf "Approach"
What is Approach
In recent years, Garmin has made great progress in the field of golf.
With the evolution of GPS, more and more people are using smartwatches to check course data and remaining yardage at golf courses.
In fact, various manufacturers are entering the golf category.

In fact, the author of this blog is also a diving enthusiast (50 dives) with a PADI Advanced Open Water license.
Having said that, basically, I'm a resort diver who only dives in tropical resorts, so it's an embarrassing level. . . (It's like a paper screwdriver in a car)
I have always loved diving, so diver's watches are one of my favorite categories.
Garmin's Descent Mk1 introduced here is in the category of dive computer (commonly known as Daikon).
First of all, I have a question for you all.
Do you know the difference between a diver's watch and a dive computer?
Rolex Submariner, Omega Seamaster, and other sporty watches that everyone generally thinks of are "divers' watches."
If we look a little more historically,
After Jacques-Yves Cousteau developed the "Aqualung (tank)" in 1943, it is said that underwater adventures began in earnest.
At that time, the development of diver's watches progressed as if triggered by the evolution of equipment.
A diver's watch protected by a strong case that can withstand the water pressure of the deep sea is born.
Multiple watch makers competed to see how deep they could dive, and continued development on a daily basis.
(Rolex and Omega are representative brands.)
Also, watches naturally have a connection with the military industry, but interestingly enough, the manufacturers of the watches supplied to the navy differ from country to country.
Since the performance of the watch greatly affects the outcome of the operation, the diver's watch worn by the special forces of the Navy was treated like a national secret. (Panerai, etc.)
In this way, a diver's watch with a tough image was born, and it continues to this day.
After that, from the 1980s onwards, leisure diving became widely popular with the great evolution of diving equipment (especially BC).
Unlike diving professionals such as the military and marine researchers, "ensuring safety" is the most important thing in leisure diving that you participate in as a hobby.
The most important thing in ensuring safety is measures against decompression sickness, and a dive computer that prevents decompression sickness (calculates no-decompression diving time) has been born through digital evolution.
I think it was revolutionary at the time.
So, the difference between a diver's watch and a dive computer is whether or not it has a function to calculate the no-decompression diving time.
From there, it became smaller and smaller, and evolved into the current dive computer that also records log data.
However, radishes are useful for ensuring safety and keeping logs during diving.
Since it is a function specialized for diving, it is positioned as one of the diving equipment.
From there, the watch for diving has evolved further!
By installing a role as a smart watch, it has evolved into a radish that can be worn every day .
As for my way of thinking about radish, I think that we should choose something with solid functions because it is related to basic life.
On the other hand, I was struggling with the dilemma of not spending that much money on something I don't usually use.
If the performance is superb like Garmin and you can use it everyday, you will want to have something that is a little expensive.
With the influence of diver's watches and G-SHOCK, more and more people are wearing sporty watches in the business scene.
Don't you think Garmin's radish, which is full of attention to detail, is pretty cool on your wrist?
(*Because of its nature, radish is a piece of equipment that can be life-threatening if used incorrectly, so it can only be used by qualified divers who can properly learn and practice safety knowledge.)
Dear divers, why not wear your Garmin around town?
Radish function attached to Descent Mk1
Now let's take a look at the functions available with the Descent Mk1.
First of all, the most important information displayed on the daicon is " NO DECO TIME" .
NO DECO TIME is the amount of time you can stay at that depth without getting decompression sickness.
The NDL value in the middle of the screen indicates the no-decompression dive time.
Make sure to exit before the time reaches 0!
Also, to avoid decompression sickness, be sure to leave enough time for no-decompression diving before surfacing.
Safety first is what diving is all about.
*Even if you use a dive computer, dive table, or other methods, the possibility of decompression sickness and oxygen poisoning cannot be eliminated.Always try to stay well below the indicated limits to minimize the risk of decompression sickness.
Let's review the basic knowledge about deco here
Have you ever been told to pay attention to "deco" during the briefing held before diving?
What is DECO?
Decompression is an abbreviation for decompression, and refers to the state of decompression sickness if you do not stop decompression anymore.
If you exceed the no-decompression diving time (NO DECO TIME) at a certain depth, the radish will warn you with sound and vibration.
This state is generally called "deco is put out".
In normal diving, it is often the case that the day's diving ends when the deco is displayed.
*This is important for safety, so try to leave enough time for no-decompression diving before surfacing.
Next, I will introduce other radish functions.
・Auto diving mode
When you enter the water and dive to a depth of 1.2m or less, it automatically enters diving mode.
・Warning alert by sound and vibration
Set audible and vibrating alarms at key points in the dive
Alarm can be notified.

DUAL POWER for solar charging has been added to Instinct.
Surprisingly, it is not well known, but Garmin referred to MIL Standard 810G, an environmental resistance test of the US Department of Defense, as a test standard for this "toughness".
Garmin conducts tests according to this MIL standard 810G for testing standards for heat resistance, impact resistance, and water resistance.
Since it has a quality that can clear (conform to) mil-spec, there is a sense of security in the watch.
Being protected with high specs naturally reduces the risk of damage and failure.
Instincts can enjoy "playing outside" to their heart's content!
One of the attractions of this Instinct is the design that is perfect for the outdoors .
In order to enjoy outdoor sports to the fullest, I think this design was born after pursuing functionality.
In terms of enjoying outdoor fashion, the large number of color variations is also attractive, and you can express yourself freely.
I want to enjoy fashion properly even at leisure events such as camping and BBQ! I think this watch is perfect for you.

Until a while ago, the ABC watch with the three sacred treasures of "altimeter", "barometer" and "compass" was the representative mountaineering watch.
Recently, the number of high-spec models that can use "navigation function" using "GPS function" is increasing.
Of course it is important that the function is great,
When used outdoors, "waterproof function", "shockproof function" and "long battery life" are also important.
After comparing many mountaineering watches, I think this "INSTINCT" is the watch with the best cost performance.
List of "functions for mountaineering" installed in INSTINCT

If we look a little more historically,
After Jacques-Yves Cousteau developed the "Aqualung (tank)" in 1943, it is said that underwater adventures began in earnest.
At that time, the development of diver's watches progressed as if triggered by the evolution of equipment.
A diver's watch protected by a strong case that can withstand the water pressure of the deep sea is born.
Multiple watch makers competed to see how deep they could dive, and continued development on a daily basis.
(Rolex and Omega are representative brands.)
Also, watches naturally have a connection with the military industry, but interestingly enough, the manufacturers of the watches supplied to the navy differ from country to country.
Since the performance of the watch greatly affects the outcome of the operation, the diver's watch worn by the special forces of the Navy was treated like a national secret. (Panerai, etc.)
In this way, a diver's watch with a tough image was born, and it continues to this day.
After that, from the 1980s onwards, leisure diving became widely popular with the great evolution of diving equipment (especially BC).
Unlike diving professionals such as the military and marine researchers, "ensuring safety" is the most important thing in leisure diving that you participate in as a hobby.
The most important thing in ensuring safety is measures against decompression sickness, and a dive computer that prevents decompression sickness (calculates no-decompression diving time) has been born through digital evolution.
I think it was revolutionary at the time.
So, the difference between a diver's watch and a dive computer is whether or not it has a function to calculate the no-decompression diving time.
From there, it became smaller and smaller, and evolved into the current dive computer that also records log data.
However, radishes are useful for ensuring safety and keeping logs during diving.
Since it is a function specialized for diving, it is positioned as one of the diving equipment.
From there, the watch for diving has evolved further!
By installing a role as a smart watch, it has evolved into a radish that can be worn every day .
As for my way of thinking about radish, I think that we should choose something with solid functions because it is related to basic life.
On the other hand, I was struggling with the dilemma of not spending that much money on something I don't usually use.
If the performance is superb like Garmin and you can use it everyday, you will want to have something that is a little expensive.
With the influence of diver's watches and G-SHOCK, more and more people are wearing sporty watches in the business scene.
Don't you think Garmin's radish, which is full of attention to detail, is pretty cool on your wrist?
(*Because of its nature, radish is a piece of equipment that can be life-threatening if used incorrectly, so it can only be used by qualified divers who can properly learn and practice safety knowledge.)
Dear divers, why not wear your Garmin around town?
First of all, the most important information displayed on the daicon is " NO DECO TIME" .
The NDL value in the middle of the screen indicates the no-decompression dive time.
Make sure to exit before the time reaches 0!
Also, to avoid decompression sickness, be sure to leave enough time for no-decompression diving before surfacing.
Safety first is what diving is all about.
*Even if you use a dive computer, dive table, or other methods, the possibility of decompression sickness and oxygen poisoning cannot be eliminated.
Always try to stay well below the indicated limits to minimize the risk of decompression sickness.
Let's review the basic knowledge about deco here
Have you ever been told to pay attention to "deco" during the briefing held before diving?
The contents of the record are
*Please do not always rely on a watch, and use equipment such as water depth gauges, residual pressure gauges, timers and watches as supplementary equipment.
Also, be sure to use a dive table.
*Perform safety checks before diving
(Check if device functions and settings, display function, battery level, tank pressure are working properly)
