Fenix 2 Performer Watch Bundle with Premium Heart Rate Monitor

Garmin's Fenix 2 Performer Watch Bundle with Premium Heart Rate Monitor has been specifically designed for the multi-sport athlete. As comfortable cycling or running as it is skiing, hiking or swimming the Fenix 2 allows you to switch between activity sets easily.

Advanced fitness features like your own personal virtual partner and recovery advisor for after your training. The TracBack® function allows you to reliably navigate your way back home after any activity and these are only some of the features.

Running

The Fenix 2 provides a wide ranging set of features for runners at any level of ability. Pace, time, distance, interval training options and autolap functions are just some of the many features tailored to runners. A dedicated profile for data such as ascents, performance and vertical speed is fully customisable to fit the desires of any athlete. When used with the HRM-Run monitor, the Fenix 2 reports your cadence, vertical oscillation and ground contact time. These running dynamics can help you to improve your efficiency and technique.

Cycling and Swimming

For swimming, the Fenix 2 tracks stroke count, intervals, distance and pace alongside many other stats. For cycling, apart from the functions already detailed, the Fenix 2 can fit easily into your pre-existing power and cadence setup to track that data too. Heart rate can also be tracked thanks to the bundled Premium Heart Rate Monitor.

Functionality

Garmin have not become one of the go-to names in the fitness electronics industry for nothing. Their functionality and ease of use goes above and beyond and the Fenix 2 Performer is no exception. Packed with cutting edge training features from Garmin, the Fenix 2 when used with a HRM-Run monitor can give you stats about your form and fitness. One such stat is VO2 Max, which gives you an estimation of your actual fitness based on your performance and various values of your heart rate. Track changes to your VO2 Max to see your fitness gains and to compare with your peers. The Fenix 2 is even able to make a prediction on your race time based on your VO2 Max value.

The Fenix 2 not only tracks where you have been, but it can also guide you into the wilderness and more importantly guide you back out again. It records a track log, creating a GPS bread crumb trail as you move. It also allows you to mark waypoints, such as your car location, safe shelter, great viewpoints and other points of interest. With the Fenix 2, you can create and follow routes, mark up to 1,000 waypoints and store up to 10,000 track points. You can even create your trip data on BaseCamp™, Garmin's free desktop trip-planning software so you can plan your trip at home, download the data to the Fenix 2 and follow the navigation arrow to waypoints or the clearly visible route line. At the end of the day use TracBack™ to show you the way home.

Connecting your Fenix 2 to your smartphone allows you to share your position with your friends and family through Garmin's LiveTrack² and Garmin Connect™ 2.0 apps. Smart Notification allows you to receive email, texts and alerts from your compatible device.

The Fenix 2 even has great, specifically tailored functions for skiing and snowboarding. Detecting speed, distance and vertical drop, the Fenix 2 separates out each run's data so that you can see either at the end of the day or on your way back up the mountain how you did on each individual run.

Durability

All of this astounding functionality would be useless if they were not housed in a durable and resilient watch that could stand up to the most extreme of conditions. Combining a steel reinforced thermoplastic housing to help it survive shocks with a protective curved mineral glass lens to resist scratching, the Fenix 2 is ready for just about anything. the Crisp LCD screen with red LED backlight and a robust polyurethane wristband further this durability while the included alternate fabric wrist stap allows you to wear the watch over heavy coats and jackets. The Fenix 2 has a water rating of 50 metres and a battery life of up to 50 hours in GPS mode and five weeks in watch mode.

If the unbelievable array of GPS functionality wasn't enough, the Fenix 2 also has all of the features and aspects of a regular wrist watch including alarms chimes,vibration alerts, stopwatch and a world clock.
