Hi guys. I have some news for this thread.

I contacted Garmin customer service in Spain (I'm spanish). They told me the usual: hard reset, reboot, no custom watchfaces and all those things I had already…

Changing from a connectIQ to a default watch face did not improve anything on my Venu2s, same 20%+ per day battery drain even without GPS

I've had one for just two years. The battery lasted about 7 days and for a few months it has discharged, doing exactly the same thing, in 3 days at most. It seemed very strange to me and now I understand, reading your messages, that it is because of the update. 
If this is Garmin's policy, count me out. I don't plan to buy another watch that will last two years. It's a shame, because it is a very good watch.
