Went swimming with watch (about fourth time only) and shortly after getting out the pool watch went into melt down turning itself off and on repeatedly until it stopped completely. This happened at 11am yesterday. This morning it has a habit of turning itself on and off all by itself. Has anyone else had this problem? I am assuming it is a faulty seal somewhere that has let the water in. The watch is only four months and have mostly been using it for running. Any help greatly appreciated as I have been on hold now for 40mins!! to customer service.
Same situation to me.I don't take it off when i take a shower. Two weeks ago, It suddenly start a run at night repeatedly and constantly vibrate.So I contact the customer services, But still not start the replacement process.Seems to take long time.I bought it on August.
same problem for me, my 735xt just died mid swim in the pool, I swim twice a week in it and run in it too. watch is less than a year old, not really impressed for a £300+ watch that is supposed to be designed to swim in. Call to Garmin pending update - spoke with Garmn who advise despite the warranty still being in place and that their warranty states in the event of a claim they will either replace with new or refurb, they are only offering me a refurb with no real explanation why a new watch is not being offered - not very impressed I have too say
I had the same experience with my second 735xt both fails about year of use. Allways is vibrate, light on and button "up" pressed. I don't recommend this model.
