The Garmin Swim Pool Training Watch is an ideal watch training partner when you are in the swimming pool.

This impressive and very smart watch will track your distance, your pace, your stroke count and more so you get the feedback on how much you are putting into your training and how much progress you are making.

The Garmin Swim Pool Training Watch works straight from the box and all you need to do is enter the length of the pool you are about to use (needs to be 17 metres or more) and dive in.

Now your task is just to concentrate on the quality of your arm stroke, your kick, your breathing pattern and your own sense of your pace. All the technical data is being taken care of by the Garmin Swim. It will record your lengths, strokes, distance, pace etc. It can also log drills or start timed sets.

The Garmin Swim Pool Training Watch can even recognise what stroke you are using!

This watch even calculates your SWOLF (from SWimming/gOLF) score to help you gauge your swimming efficiency, making it ideal for lap swimmers of all levels. The intuitive interface utilizes six exterior buttons so each and every function can be accessed quickly and easily.

The Garmin Swim Pool Training Watch is slim and attractive enough to be worn as a daily watch. It also acts as a personal reminder of your goals to help you stay motivated by displaying your weekly accumulated distance under the time of day. Watch features include dual time zones and alarm.

After your workout, upload your swim data to Garmin Connect for free online analysis. Here, you can view your detailed metrics and track your progress over time. You can also share your workout data with your coaches, workout buddies or friends and family. Through the magic of ANT+ wireless technology and the USB stick that comes with your Garmin Swim, your workout data automatically transfers to your computer when in range. Garmin Connect is Mac and Windows compatible.
