Garmin Forerunner 45 GPS Running Watch is rated 4.1 out of 5 by 37.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Welshlamb from Excellent The only negative is that the GPS can be a little slow locating you when initially turned on. All other aspects of the watch work really well and for it’s price it’s a very very good watch.
Date published: 2021-02-17
Rated 1 out of 5 by MrNash from Do NOT buy this watch Do not buy this watch, it WILL not work properly. After about a week of use something called the "CPE file" “expires” inside the unit. The watch then WILL NOT pick up a GPS signal rendering itself completely useless. There seem to be hundreds of people online complaining of the same problem so this is definitely not a one off. There are numerous other buggy issues with the watch relating to the included Garmin coach feature. I could maybe overlook these if the watch did the one thing it was supposed to do and work. I find it disgusting how Garmin can sell a product like this and get away with it. It’s a real shame because I do like the design and look of the watch.

Rated 4 out of 5 by DrWhy from Bought for son Christmas present to inspire cross country running training and it has. Picks up heart rate, syncs to phone and uploads to Strava. Probably best value watch/gps on market. Went with red strap, looks smart.

Rated 5 out of 5 by bob139 from Easy to use Accurate , simple to use, it even tells you if your sleeping enough, plus works with Strava etc

What info can the display show?

When running, is there a screen that shows elapsed time and distance at the same time, i.e. without having to press a button to scroll the display?
Asked by: SlowlyRunning
The data screens are customizable so will allow you to choose both the lapsed time and distance at the same time.
