Garmin GPS Watch

Does anyone have one? If so what model?

I got the 405 for Christmas from DH and am super stoked...however it is HUGE on me. I guess I have child size wrists - ugh. I can get it to fit tight but there is a big gap at top of watch. I guess it is more of a personal preference and not sure if I want to run with this clunky thing - or maybe I need to get used to it?

I know there is the 405xc which comes with a different wrist band. I may get this or I may wait for a new model to come out and pray it is smaller. What would you do???

I have some time before my next full marathon and only plan on doing halfs this spring.

I have the 405 and it's really great. It's not just your wrists...it's women in general (since it's a unisex watch). I have the same problem and actually hated it for awhile, but in winter you can throw it in a pocket.

I wore it during my last marathon, thinking I would just suck it up...but I didn't even think about it (except at each mile split - although I missed a few)

I was also going to experiment with wrist sweatbands...If I can find a thinner one - I just haven't gotten around to it.
