Watch Results
Loaded with serious training features, Forerunner 405CX continuously records your time, distance, pace, calories burned and heart rate. Each workout is stored in memory so you can review and analyze the data to see how you've improved. And advanced training features will challenge you to step up your pace--race against Forerunner's Virtual Partner to improve your times, or set up interval workouts without having to circle the track. You can even download recorded courses to compete against previous workouts. To use the watch, simply tap the touch bezel to change screens without fumbling for a button.

Track Heart Rate
Forerunner 405CX comes with a flexible, wireless heart rate monitor to help you make the most out of your training. The digital heart rate monitor continuously tracks heart beats per minute and uses your heart rate for advanced calorie computation, so you know how many calories you're burning. Train in a certain heart rate zone to improve your fitness level or compare your pace and heart rate to past performance on the same run.

Share Workouts Wirelessly
With Forerunner 405CX, you can share your locations, advanced workouts and courses wirelessly with other Forerunner 405 users. Send your favorite workout to your friends to try, or compete against someone else's recorded course. Sharing data is easy: just select "transfer" to send your information to a nearby device.

Run, Sync, Store and Share
Once you've logged the miles, innovative ANT+ wireless technology automatically transfers data to your computer when Forerunner is in range. No cables, no hookups. The data's just there, ready for you to analyze, categorize and share through our online community, Garmin Connect or our optional Garmin Training Center software. You can even plan workouts on your computer and then send them to your Forerunner.

Train Year Round
Take your training inside with the versatile Forerunner 405CX and optional wireless accessories. Pair it with an optional foot pod to track your speed, distance and running cadence indoors when GPS signals are unavailable. The wireless foot pod clips onto your laces for easy removal and automatically turns on when you start moving. Or pair your Forerunner with an optional speed/cadence bike sensor to track the speed and distance of your cycling workouts.

5 out of 5 stars How can you not love this watch?   September 5, 2010
sundoode
I read both the good and bad reviews for this watch and realized that all of the gps watches 'appeared' to have shortcomings here or there. Shortcomings supposedly included accuracy, problems with the touch bezel and how long the battery lasted. But I went ahead and purchased this watch about a month ago, and couldn't be happier. I work out before work 4-5 times a week in the morning, and also follow up with a recreational walk/jog in the afternoon a couple of times a week. I found this watch very easy to set up, both using the menu on the watch as well as the software included with the watch. Measurement of distance and heart rate monitoring were very accurate. And after completing a 45 minute jog, the battery life was only down 7-8% consistently.
Another benefit of this watch is the software included with the watch. When I finish with my workout, and set the watch on my desk next to my computer, it will automatically upload the session data and display the workout summary. You can also see a history of your workout, which includes your minute-by-minute heart rate, pace and distance traveled. You can also upload the info to connect.[...]with the push of button and share the info with your friends.
I really love this watch and feel it is well worth the price. I works great and is feature rich in options. Garmin has done a great job with this watch!



5 out of 5 stars A must have   August 24, 2010

I should have bought one a year ago, perfect training tool! The quick start guide that comes with it leaves little to be desired when it comes to actual functions...make sure you have a friend who has one. But once you learn how to use it, its easy. Love being able to track the data on Garmin's website, love it! Its a must have for a person doing any training, cant be without it.


5 out of 5 stars Great shop   August 17, 2010
Gil Guimaraes
Before buying this Forerunner I had to run in specific places where I knew the distance. With the GPS I can run everywhere and it will inform me the distance run. The Garmin Connect feature at Internet is also great, you can store your exercises results and monitore your evolution. I fully recommend it.


4 out of 5 stars Logged about 150 miles so far...   August 11, 2010
Clint Parsons
I have logged about 150 miles so far with the device and I must say I really like it. I have not used others, so I have not basis for comparison. I find the GPS works extremely well. I like all of the features and the ease of uploading my results to my computer and/or the Garmin Connect website. It is not the easiest to use, primarily because it can do so many things and there are a ton of options. I have not devoted the time to customizing it for my personal taste, though I plan to do so soon. All in all, I am very happy with my purchase.


5 out of 5 stars For what I need this is 5 stars!   August 8, 2010
NickinAZ
I am still learning how to use this watch to it's utmost! On an almost daily basis I use the GPS, heartrate monitor and timer/pace settings. I love the online tracking service through Garmin. This is a great watch. Each week I go online and watch another video on how to use the watch. There is always something new I hadn't thought of yet. I can't wait to try the course upload so I can follow the predetermined coordinates using my watch as my guide. Just what I need to keep me interested in my daily runs.

I am a bigger guy and my only complaint is the watch band is almost too small. I have to use it on the second to last hole on the band so the end keeper is useless. The velcro band is not a better option. I know, that doesn't really have anything to do with the function of the watch. Just thought I would mention it.
