Garmin Fenix 7...but which size should you buy?

[@yosacfc]

The 7s has less options on watch bands

[@cristianX8411]

what did you choose?

[@alphonsecadieux6127]

I kept the 7s for a while but since I gotten a Suunto Race S

[@leonpatrick5606]

I brought the Garmin fenix 7x pro sapphire solar, and my wrist size is 23 cm.

[@alphonsecadieux6127]

That is a good fit for you! 🤜🤛

[@ThomasJefferson-h3f]

What’s the band that’s on the 7s?

Fleshy Leaf Bracelet de montre de 20 mm compatible avec Garmin Fenix 7S, bracelet de rechange réglable en silicone souple pour montre intelligente Garmin Fenix 7S/7S Solar/7S Sapphire Solar/6S/5S a.co/d/788PBWU The only review they have is negative but funny at the same time! Well worth the price!

You got 20 days for the 7. Dang man, I just got the 7 Pro and max life is showing 18 days and I haven’t done any workouts!! 😆. How are you getting 20 days? I wish I got the 7x Pro but it’s huge. 😢

[@alphonsecadieux6127]

The 20 days stretch was done using the the backlight at 5% with automatic activation after dawn only. For the test, it was only used as a smart watch. With regular 30 minutes daily walk/hike and almost no sunlight, I stretch it out to 15 days. I did acquired an instinct 2x last Monday. I did a 3h walk on Wednesday as well as my daily 2km morning walk before work everyday. As of Sunday, today, I'm at 80%/35 days

[@gainknowledgeandinsight]

@@alphonsecadieux6127 whoa!! 35 days! Damn. I need to look at that one

[@philleatham3670]

Keep the 47, with the longer battery life. The small one looks better though!

[@alphonsecadieux6127]

You are correct! The size difference goes away after a few days

[@F.Adamus]

You should keep 42... The Longer Battery Life shouldn't be Reason.

[@alphonsecadieux6127]

Actually, the battery life is a big thing to consider when going out on an adventure of 5 to 10 days. I should also note that the 47mm is better proportionned overall and wears better and more comfortable.

[@F.Adamus]

Ok. I will try... I ordered 42 . My wirst is 165

[@alphonsecadieux6127]

I was always on the same fence. The only logic to apply here is to wear it and consider the Fenix the same way we would a G-Shock: bug, robust and durable 🤜🤛

[@Andrii_Shved]

@@F.Adamushi, could you share your experience about the size. I have the same wrist size as you so I’m wondering what size to get.

[@Djahmon]

Well there has to be a good obvious reason why Garmin engineers made a small model...
