fēnix
3 is the rugged, capable and smart multisport training GPS 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 activities. And, fēnix 3 is a thin, light
multisport training GPS 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 to 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
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 smartphone² and lets you know you have a
message, displaying the text on its own screen whenever you’re ready to
read it.
