Garmin GPS Uhr gefunden, wie auslesen

Hallo zusammen,

ich habe eine Garmin Instinct gefunden und würde gerne die gespeicherten GPS Daten auslesen um den Besitzer ermitteln zu können.

kann ich die einfach in mein aktuelles Garmin Connect profil added, auslesen, oder sollte man dafür ein temporäres Profil erstellen, damit die Aktivitäten nicht dem eigenen hinzugefügt werden?

Eher würde ich Garmin informieren.

Die Seriennummer der Uhr ist ja mit dem Profil und EMail verknüpft. So kann man einen direkten Kontakt herstellen.

... that told, if you download some of the activities from the device, you may be able to find out, where the person lives, from the starting and ending points of the activity tracks. If it is near a family house, it is relatively easy to return the watch. If it is at a residential building, leave a note with a contact to you, at the building entry.

Do not connect the device tou your Garmin Connect account! Instead, connect to it with a USB cable, download the activities from the folder //GARMIN/Activity/ and import them manually at https://connect.garmin.com/modern/import-data. It is better using an alternative GC account, than your own one - you'd risk to skew your metrics and stats with activities of someone else.

A very kind deed of you!

Just for the reference for other people looking up a solution here in the future:

Instead of the hassle of creating a new Garmin Connect account, it is actually much simpler using the Section Remover of the FIT File Tools free online service. It is much faster and more comfortable. Just open the link, click the Section Remover, drop the file on it, and click the Go button - it shows the map then too.

And if you are the one losing the watch, there are note widgets that could display a contact option right in the glances if you want.

For example this one in an upcoming release: apps.garmin.com/.../4aa4c416-74c8-4eab-a017-d56dafcf51af
