Why cut the clock dimension ?? These dimensions are typical for men, it would be stupid and ugly to wear a watch on smaller dimensions only if you are a woman.....
I hope I don't ever need to replace battery.. I'll be very happy & satisfied if my GF3HR can last for more than 5-7 years, at least until next Fenix 7 or 8 if u will... :-)
My Garmin Forerunner 310xt got just under 5 years at which point the battery life was nose-diving, lasting 7 hours instead of 20 and dropping week by week.
I've changed the battery in my fenix 3, but the real problem was the display. My fenix 3 hr and my quatix 3 holds 1 - 1,5 months in watch mode. 03. 2024.
Hi,this sentence was written in machine translation, it may be hard to understand the meaning The LCD, bezel and glass are united with double-sided tape. 05 ,,,, 10 ,,,, 15 ,,,,,The line and character part indicating the number of seconds is a printed double-sided tape. It is impossible to remove only the glass cleanly leaving letters. If you want to keep good looking, you need replace assembly. If you just want to fix it anyway, you will remove the glass with double-sided tape and paste the round polycarbonate panel with an adhesive. I fixed the broken Forerunner 110's glass earlier this way.
Hi Onyx, I hit the glass and it has several imperfections, but, .... the process that you indicate seems complicated. I do not know to do. However, thank you very much
You will be just fuckt :)) because Garmin don't replace battery of these watches after warranty expires ! Also they don't sell to 3rd party replacement or other parts !
I think that Garmin should be ashamed for such a business policy. 500E watch 3 yrs battery life , they will trade your old one for the reconditioned and charge you more than the current value of the watch. I love the watch but dislike the company because of their business practices.
+Antonio Ruiz : If you replace your battery, let us know how the replacement process works. I believe the battery is glued to the board, therefore it is hard to peel off the battery from the board.
Thank you! Was there anything to note about a gasket for waterproofing or have you had no issues after it went back together??
Wow, this shows how much spaces Garmin wasted inside Fenix 3 HR, they could totally increase the battery size or reduce the Watch size by 25-35%
I think so too.
fenix5 coming...
3 is a transition period.

The size is perfect, its a mans watch, not some ladies time piece. Go buy a ladies watch if it suits your wrist better?
The hardest part about replacing the battery is buying a new battery that is genuinely *new*, not a used battery fraudulently repackaged as new.
Why do you stick to genuine?
The battery is a battery.
Required performance is size and capacity
Because you replace and use it on your own.
Hi, I have a garmin instinct with dead damaged battery, how can I replace it and where can I get a new one?

@@Kie-7077 did u try replacing the battery?
@@Eric-lx8hp No, the watch was wrecked, falling apart. I bought a Fenix 3 with sapphire screen, it's much more durable.

Nakararat Nakarawong You can see the black ring in 00:25.

No problem.
Hi,
looking for GPS antenna, would you please advise where can I get it
What about battery dissasembly? you forgot one important step in case we need to replace it. Maybe you did not dare to, ha ha ha, just kidding.
If you can not even peel off double-sided tape, you should not challenge such work.
Onyx Sorry, I don't get it. Don't worry, I'm not planning to replace battery soon, hopefully.

@@Perchera Yeah You cant replace.I know.You dont have enough skill.You cant.
@@JohnDoe-km9cx Nuvi,Forerunner,Edge and more.Many garmin devices using double-sided tape for battery placing.Amateur.
Thanks, will perhaps be useful one day... 😊
You are welcome!
Is it possible to buy a genuine battery in a regular Garmin shop?
Or will a Chinese imitation also do the job?
No,GARMIN is not selling battery for fenix 3.
What is imitation?The important thing is not the GARMIN logo mark.
it is the performance of battery.
Martin Kannegieter no, and the after maket batteries are crap. I replaced mine twice and they only hold a 12 hour charge.
The way you handle that calbe is not very good mate. It can get ruined.
Has anyone replaced Fenix 3/3HR battery by themselves?
