24h-Time settings not saved

Hi!

I use the time setting 24h instead of 12h am/pm. Everyday of my short F5-ownership I have to readjust the setting because it switches back to 12h-display mode the next day.

Anyone else with this behaviour?

    In Garmin Connect Mobile go to Devices->Fenix 5->Device Settings->System->Time Format and make sure it is checked, other wise GC Mobile will overwrite the settings on the watch everytime it syncs. Same for the things like vibration alerts etc.

    The F3 had this issue at one point too. Garmin will get it together and sort it out soon enough so it syncs both ways not just one.
