Disappointing costumer service, and product!:
I bought this product about 5 months ago, the batteries just lasted 4 months when it spouse to last for 12, I call Garmin International and they ask me to send it, which I did, 2 weeks after, I received a refurbished watch that didn't work either, I call them again and they told me to send it again (I paid shipping twice), 2 week later I got another watch that did NOT work, it was the third one...
2 months later I finally got a new Forerunner. Please don't get in trouble, don't buy this product!

Watch was defective. :-( Died after return window:
I got the watch. I didn't open it right away, but when I finally did. It worked ok at first, I had to replace the battery in the footpod in order for the watch to detect it as soon as I started using it. Then the watch I replaced a few days later. Now it's not working at all. Outside of return window. I didn't even get the chance to use it at all.
I wouldn't recommend buying this watch. I got a lemon from Amazon.
Still can't sync the footpod and heart rate monitor to the watch:
its been over 30 days now and i can only use the watch. i still can't figure out why the foot pod and heart rate monitor would not sync. any recommendations?
Garmin Forerunner 50 with HR monitor & Foot Pod:
Foot pod arrived with a dead battery. Need to calibrate foot pod. Overall, its a good product and it serves my need. Thanks.
