Garmin Vivoactive 3 - Amazon.de

Had been looking at getting a smart watch for a while and came across this on amazon.de

https://www.amazon.de/-/en/Garmin-v%C3%ADvoactive-fitness-pre-installed-contactless/dp/B07MLQR79W (edited to correct initial issue)

Regularly comes out as one of the best at what it does, and for the price I'm happy to forego a couple of features I would have liked to have had in an ideal world, but which right now cannot justify the price difference. All in, (vat+delivery) total cost €127.28!!

I have this watch for about 15 months and really like it. Does what I need. I only use it when exercising, walking or running. Monitors distance, time, heartrate, elevation.
Things I like, vibrates at each kilometre, display is large enough to read when jogging. Very comfortable to wear.
Dislikes; the read out on the mobile phone. would really like each kilometre to be listed; e.g. Kilometre 1 8 mins etc, it's just a graph so it's less clear to read the info.
A thing I like that I wouldn't have though about before getting a watch is climbing a local mountain, really like knowing the distance from previous climbs, then knowing I'm halfway etc.
Looking at the link is this a pre owned watch. The price is unreal. I paid €165 last November 12 months on sale. Haven't seen it anywhere near that since.

Bought this just after release in 2017 and still going strong... used for running and cycling, and daily step count... recommended!

There's a few different tabs in the running activity on the app. One of them is the graph info and the one beside that shows the lap information time distance and average pace.

Vivoactive 3 is a fine watch, use it for running all the time, the music version.

Music Version will play from Spotify, deezeer, or toy can save mp3 to it, and play through BT earphones.

Have it about 18 months, good machine.

Looks like a great deal. I just jumped at it.

It's worth highlighting that these are reconditioned. It's part of the Amazon Renewed range

Thank for the tip. This is a great deal. I have a 2 year old one already and it's excellent. If I can get €60/70 for it this will a very cheap refresh. The Garmin Pay on it is so useful btw.

Nope, just heart rate.

Just logging on to say I am incredibly happy with my Garmin that arrived today. It came in a refurbished box, but the watch is brand new. Maybe I got lucky, but it is clear the one I got was never used. Fantastic piece of kit,
