Pros and cons

According to our smartwatch expert

  • This Garmin watch has a long battery life, so you don't have to charge often.
  • You can get an insight in your physical condition with the VO2 max reading, which measures the maximum oxygen intake of your blood.
  • It shows heart rate zones while you work out, so you can do more targeted trainings to improve your stamina, for example.
  • This small watch looks best on a wrist circumference of up to 15cm, so choose a larger Instinct 2 or Instinct 2X if you have a larger wrist circumference.
  • There's no built-in music storage, so you have to take your smartphone with you if you want to listen to music during your workout.

Worth its price

  • Well-functioning GPS, heart rate and oximeter
  • Low weight
  • Interchangeable straps, (I always break those)
  • Unusable app, only works online

I bought this smartwatch as a 24-hour heart rate sensor and oximeter with the bonus of a good GPS and compass. As such I am very pleased. As indicated, I cannot use the app during a flight, for example, since it only works with cloud access.

Why the "standard" version i.d.v. the tactical model

  • design
  • ease of use
  • gps
  • strap

Already bought a few heart rate monitors from Coolblue. The last one was the Garmin vivoactive 3. Top device, but not a workhorse. By this I mean, not really usable in the field. Due to certain circumstances, I need a timepiece that I can wear in the field, that is strong and reliable. Normally I use my automatic Swiss watch (which is 200m water resistant). However, this was in combination with a mobile GPS. Because navigation in timepieces is increasingly used by authorities, I went looking for a timepiece that would work for me. My first choice was the Garmin instinct tactical, because it is compatible with night vision goggles (NVG mode), fantastic .... in practice. The PVS-31 only sees sharply from a certain distance, in practice this means that I have to stretch my arm further than what is possible for me (+- 50cm) to view the timepiece with my PVS-31 (in NVG- mode). This feature is of no use to me at the moment. The stealth mode is an interesting shortcut, but it can also be set manually (and quickly) on the non-tactical version. You can convert the GPS coordinates from (n-w and m-s) to eg MGRS. There is also an option to view both together. The Garmin tactical also features shortcuts to clear all data at a glance. Great... but these can still be read from the watch (missing a computer). This made the choice to go for the "standard" version. in the beginning I thought what a hassle .... complicated ... but after 10 min everything points its own way. Super user-friendly device, with a very good battery. Also shock resistance (even when using firearms with a somewhat heavy caliber) is no problem at all. Water resistant? Check, for sure, up to 100m. What is less good for me personally: the strap, but there are enough solutions for this. Am I going to keep up with the Garmin? Hell yes, but I will make the switch to the Solar (Garmin instinct 2(s) Solar). You may be wondering why I didn't buy the Solar from the start? Very good and valid question: this because I thought that only the round circle was provided with a solar panel, which turns out: the entire screen is a solar panel. Summarized: Top (tactical) timepiece, without patatie or patata,.. don't expect a touchscreen, internal music storage, color screen... What do you get instead: a device with a monster of a battery that is super reliable and robust. Your wingman you can count on... in good and bad days.
