Data fields on one of the standard Apprach S62 Watch faces

Former Member over 4 years ago

I've recently bought the Approach S62 and 'm a little confused with one of the data fields represented on one of the standard watch faces, The standard watch face in question has the Garmin logo at 12 o'clock, day/date at six o'clock the steps data field at 9 o'clock and another date field at 3'oclock which has, what appears to be, a 3 chevrons logo. Can anyone tell me what this data field is representing?

Hi DaveBedford is absolutely correct. The red bar on the watch face is a representation of the lack of movement/exercise, as advertised on page 13 of the manual under Notifications and Alert Settings …

It’s likely your battery level. I’ve never used that face but I think that’s it.

Hi Vonbonds - Thanks for the response.

My battery level is now at 63% and yet "That" data field is showing full! I left the watch overnight "not" being charged up and the data field was empty this morning, and slowly filled up during the morning.

Huh, now I have to know lol. I’ve made it my watch face and will see if I can figure it out today.

Is it your progress towards your move goal?

I thought so at first but I am not sure now after using it for a day. We need Garmin - Chris to chime in.

I've also sent the question to Garmin Support, so hopefully an answer soon. I think DaveBedford might have something though, something to experiment with today.

Hi DaveBedford is absolutely correct. The red bar on the watch face is a representation of the lack of movement/exercise, as advertised on page 13 of the manual under Notifications and Alert Settings (Move Alert).

I was looking at the steps widget and and alert flashed up with the "chevron icon" and a red bar in the steps widget advertising the need to move.

Thanks for the help
