Smart Watch Garmin HR GPS Forerunner 55 - Black

Speedily delivered with care. Excellent condition even though listed a category lower. Quick to charge and every feature I need plus more.

The service provided and item condition were perfect and very pleased with BackMarket. I however found this device a bit unintuitive. I work in tech, have run for years and have a fitbit. I wanted something to give me a better idea of pace but it was noisy, seemed to conflict with my headphones. This may have been rubbish headphones/lack of patience but could not see it gave me personally enough over my fitbit. I found the display less bright than I would choose, and even though this is configurable, of course uses more battery. Maybe I needed a superior model, but that is way outside of what I am prepared to pay.

What a saga this watch has been!! I get advertised Backmarket a lot. The company sells the promise of reducing fast-tech and choosing to give an already made product another chance - maybe this promise holds true for other products, but the company who sent me this Garmin Forerunner 55 absolutely did not! The watch arrived in a case with a charger. The charger was visibly defective and only charged the watch if you held it at a certain angle and kept unplugging and replugging it in. The watch face also cracked after just a few days - I didn't bump into anything or drop it, I just put it in my pocket for an hour or two and took it out cracked. I really think I was sold a product of low/defective quality. I've purchased the same Garmin Forerunner 55 off of amazon for £116, pretty much the same as what I paid for the product from BackMarket. The Garmin from amazon came brand new! Feels crazy that I paid the same price for a used product as I did a brand new one! I reported the defective charger and the company sent me a new one! This new one simply doesn't fit the watch! It's just a generic-looking sports watch charger, unlike the wonky one which at least had the Garmin brand name on it! All in all I think I was solid a product that was defective from its initial manafacture. I really can't understand why else a charging cable with a port that was VISIBLY wonky/defective would be sent out to me! I think that if the charging cable was so poor quality then the watch was as well - I can't understand why else it would break after just a couple days. Since comparing the brand new one off of Amazon to the one I recieved on BackMarket, I can also add that the little plastic bands at the back of the Backmarket watch (used to hold the strap in place) are generic and not Garmin brand! The Backmarket watch had two generic plastic bands whereas the Amazon brand new one had a singular Garmin branded band! Gah, I'm getting even more annoyed as I write this! The customer service team from BackMarket have been fantastic throughout. They are supportive, responsive and it really feels like you're dealing with someone who cares. Cannot thank them enough for their help. If there was an option to leave this watch 0 stars I would, but the customer service team get 5 stars from me!

Arrived quickly and was exactly as described. Very happy!

My son was extremely happy with the watch, it does everything he wanted.
