Once running gets serious

fēnix 3 Sapphire is packed with cutting edge training features from Garmin, when used with a HRM-Run monitor (included with Performer Bundle) it can give you stats about your form and fitness. The first is VO2 Max which gives you an estimation of your actual fitness based on your performance and various values of your heart rate. The fēnix 3 Sapphire is even able to make a prediction on your race time based on your VO2 Max value and after your training the recovery advisor tells you how much time you need to recover from your last activity.¹ With Running Dynamics fēnix 3 Sapphire incorporates sophisticated sensor feedback on your running form to provide multiple advanced running metrics. When used with the HRM-Run monitor¹, fēnix 3 Sapphire reports your cadence, vertical oscillation and ground contact time. These metrics show your running efficiency and knowing about your running dynamics can help you to improve your efficiency over time.

Run vertical

To address the specific needs of trail runners, fēnix 3 Sapphire provides a dedicated trail profile with new features like the automatic switch for core data presentation during flat running vs. climbing sequences and it adds more climbing relevant data such as ascent performance split for labs and vertical speed. For Ultra Trail runner fēnix 3 Sapphire secures additional battery life in UltraTrac mode and the option to run the watch with external power supply for the big challenge.

Dive in

Whether you’re training in the pool or out on the open water, fēnix 3 Sapphire captures detailed swim metrics, including distance, pace, stroke count, stroke rate and SWOLF score. The drill logging feature allows you to easily log swim drills and kick sets at the pool, and the 2 types of rest timers keep you pushing off the wall on time. Use time alerts to help you hold your pace, or distance alerts to let you know when a set is over. There are even alerts for calories and stroke rate.

Ride on

fēnix 3 Sapphire is compatible with sensors such as speed, cadence and heart rate to provide advanced training capabilities for your cycling workouts. It can also display power metrics when paired with ANT+™ power meters, including the Vector line of single- and dual-sensing pedal options. If you train with heart rate and a power meter, fēnix 3 Sapphire can derive your VO2 max estimate for cycling to help monitor changes in your fitness.

Take this run

Ski-board mode puts speed, distance, vertical drop and an automatic run counter (with Auto Pause for the lift line) and more at your fingertips. You can even use your fēnix 3 Sapphire as a glove-friendly remote, via ANT+™, for the VIRB® and VIRB Elite action cameras.

You know your way

fēnix 3 Sapphire provides comprehensive navigation and tracking functionalities to guide you on and off the beaten track. fēnix 3 Sapphire records a GPS track log creating a “bread crumb trail” as you move. It also allows you to mark locations, such as a start/finish line, course checkpoint, or a campsite, vehicle or other point of interest. With fēnix 3 Sapphire, you can create and follow courses or mark up to 1,000 locations and navigate to them. Plan trips and share adventures with friends and family using Garmins free planning tool BaseCamp on your computer.

More than just ABC sensors

fēnix 3 Sapphire is equipped with a barometric altimeter and an electronic 3-axis compass. The device auto-calibrates theses sensors using its GPS receiver to provide at any time the most accurate information possible. The built-in altimeter provides elevation data to accurately monitor ascent and descent, while the barometer can be used to predict weather changes by showing short-term trends in air pressure. The 3-axis electronic compass keeps your bearing whether you’re moving or not. For accurate temperature reading from the watch, pair the fēnix 3 Sapphire with our external tempe temperature sensor.
