Related: Pro-Ject RPM 3 Carbon review The fitted cartridge, although not branded as such, looks to be a Rega Carbon moving-magnet model, which is itself an adaptation of the Audio-Technica AT91 and worth around £25.
As a result, there’s minimal fiddling around and no need for a tracking force gauge.
It’s slim and far smaller than many a full-on runner’s watch, or any Android Wear watch.
While Garmin probably envisioned the Vivoactive as being the cooler cousin to its more obvious fitness-obsessed wristwear, in this class it’s rather unobtrusive. Design-wise, Garmin could have made a little more effort.
Luckily, it will be easy enough to tart up the Vivoactive a little with a replacement strap.
Garmin offers several styles: a leather one costs around £20, and a softer silicone strap is available for around £10-12.
