GPS sports watch Garmin Forerunner 405CX

Garmin offers the Forerunner 405CX, a GPS based sports watch corresponding to the latest technical requirements. The Forerunner 405CX GPS-sports watch gets a multi-functional running computer in combination with the digital, interference-free heart rate measurement. Being ideal for outdoor use, you always have a good overview about your training values and get continuously all important information (heart rate, height, distance, pace, calories). Your heartbeat is detected per minute and you can exercise in certain heart rate zones. The alarm function of the Garmin Forerunner 405CX GPS-sports watch indicates with an acoustic signal when you deviate from your target.

The Forerunner 405CX running computer calculates the calory consumption based upon the heart rate variability. The calories consumption can be calculated almost medically precise by using an algorithm of the worldwide leading company FirstBeat. The calories consumption is an essential value that is especially important for weight reduction training.

After the workout, you transfer automatically and wirelessly the training data to your computer by means of the USB ANT-Stick as soon as the Forerunner is within reach. Garmin Connect is an international online community at your disposal. Use this for saving, analysing and exchanging your training files. Test your favourite distance, run against a Virtual Partner or compete against a distance record of a friend.

The Forerunner 405 sports watch by Garmin convinces, moreover, by an easy and intuitive operation. When you are running, you can choose rapidely different functions and switch between the views with a slight finger touch by means of the touchring. Get your Garmin Forerunner 405CX running computer extended by optionally available sensors and it gets ideal for indoor training, i.e. on the treadmill. The Forerunner 405CX GPS sports watch is delivered with a second bracelet especially for smaller wrists !
