watch. With feature sets for fitness training plus feature sets
for outdoor navigation, fēnix 3 is ready for any training
activity and competition. Access to the Connect IQ platform
allows customization of watch faces, data fields, widgets and

that won’t slow you down whether for training or every day use.
Serious Style That Stands Up to the Roughest Conditions
-------------------------------------------------------
fēnix 3 is available in 3 bold models: gray with high-strength,
scratch resistant, crystal and black band; silver with red band;
and the premium sapphire model with a stainless steel band and
sapphire lens. Each watch features a protective stainless steel
bezel and buttons, and reinforced housing for extra durability. A
sunlight-visible high-resolution color Chroma display with LED
backlight lets you access your data in any light. fēnix 3 is
water rated 100 meters and has a battery life of up to 50 hours
in UltraTrac mode, 16 hours in GPS mode and up to 3 months in
watch mode (all depending on settings).
Advanced Fitness Metrics
------------------------
fēnix 3 is packed with training features to tell you about your
form and fitness. The first is the VO2 max estimator. When used
with a heart rate monitor¹, fēnix 3 crunches data, including your
running speed, beats per minute and heart rate variability to
estimate the maximum volume of oxygen you can consume per minute.
Track changes to your VO2 max to see your fitness gains and to
compare with your peers. Other fitness metrics include recovery
advisor with a recovery timer and recovery check, plus a Race
Predictor, which estimates your ideal finish time based on your
current VO2 max number.
Running Dynamics Features
-------------------------
fēnix 3 incorporates sophisticated Garmin running watch feedback
on your running form by reporting multiple metrics. When used
with the HRM-Run monitor¹, fēnix 3 reports your cadence, vertical
oscillation and ground contact time. These metrics are called
running dynamics, and they affect your running economy.
Swim Profile and Ski-board Mode
-------------------------------
The fēnix 3 isn’t just for running; special feature sets help
swim training and skiing too. Borrowing from the Garmin Swim,
fēnix 3 tracks your distance, pace, stroke count and more. You
just tell fēnix 3 the size of the pool you’re swimming in and
begin your workout. Ski-board mode puts speed, distance, vertical
drop and an automatic run counter (with Auto Pause for the lift
line) and more at your fingertips. You can even use your fēnix 3
as a glove-friendly remote, via ANT+, for the VIRB and VIRB Elite
action cameras.
Navigate Your Way
-----------------
No other navigator GPS plus ABC (altimeter, barometer and
compass) wristwatch offers you the combined training functions
and our leading GPS technology. fēnix 3 provides comprehensive
navigation and tracking functionalities to guide you on and off
the beaten track. Its built-in sensors provide information on
heading, elevation and weather changes.
It records a GPS track log creating a “bread crumb trail” as you
move. It also allows you to mark locations, such as a
start/finish line, course checkpoint, or a campsite, vehicle or
other point of interest. With fēnix 3, you can create and follow
courses, mark up to 1,000 locations and store up to 10,000 track
points and navigate to them.
Plan trips and share adventures with friends and family using
BaseCamp. fēnix is equipped with both ANT+ and Bluetooth Smart
capabilities to wirelessly share locations, routes and geocaches.
Altimeter, Barometer and Compass
--------------------------------
fēnix 3 is equipped with ABC sensors to provide relevant
real-time information. The built-in altimeter provides elevation
data to accurately monitor ascent and descent, while the
barometer can be used to predict weather changes by showing
short-term trends in air pressure. The 3-axis electronic compass
keeps your bearing whether you’re moving or not.
fēnix 3 auto-calibrates its ABC sensors using its GPS receiver
and also auto sets the time based on location. For an extremely
accurate temperature reading, pair it with our tempe external
temperature sensor.
Connect IQ
----------
fēnix 3 uses the ConnectIQ platform for specialized software so
you can personalize your watch with apps, widgets, data fields
and unique watch faces that make your Garmin smartwatch even
smarter.
Stay Connected
--------------
Smart Notifications lets you receive emails, texts and alerts
right on your watch, even if you're on the trail. fēnix 3
receives the wireless signal from a compatible iPhone 4s or
Android and let’s you know you have a message,
displaying the text on its own screen whenever you’re ready to
read it.
