Description
The Fossil Garrett HR Gen 5 is a study-looking smartwatch that mainly serves as an extension of your phone. The watch runs on the WearOS operating system by Google, so you have a lot of apps to choose from. Think of Google Maps to easily find your way and quickly reach your destination. You can make calls with your wrist, provided the watch is connected to your smartphone via Bluetooth. This is useful if you're in your garage and your phone is out of reach. Of course, you'll also receive messages and notifications from your smartphone. You can see the content of the message at a glance and respond directly from your smartwatch if necessary. Do you like to listen to music? Download Spotify and listen to music from your watch in combination with your wireless headphones. The watch measures your daily movement and heart rate.
Note: a charger adapter isn't included. Do you want to charge the watch via a socket? If so, order a charger adapter separately.
This is what you get
- Manual(5.36 MB)
- Charging cable (excluding charger adapter)

Good value for its price
- Looks great , stainless steel with a heavy look and feel
- Loads of watch faces to choose from
- Bright screen , easy to use during daylight
- Metal strap has a cheap feel to it , light and feels unrelated to the watch
All in all it’s a nice watch , if your going for the look and your not a heavy user of apps. Not recommended as a sport watch but more as a fashion item with a smart twist to it
