Garmin Fenix 9 Pro inReach 47mm

The slogan for Garmin’s Fenix 9 Pro inReach is “Play harder”. Even more precise tracking of your endurance fitness and performance supports your training. The maps have also improved, and routing works more smoothly than before. The speaker and microphone enable features like voice commands and voice messages.

Some watches are made to serve best in certain sports, but as the flagship model of the Garmin range, the Fenix 9 Pro leaves nothing outside of its scope.

Body status monitoring based on heart rate variability helps you decide whether today is the day for a demanding workout or a light one.

Performance data is now also included for rowing.

NOTE! Use of inReach emergency features requires an active satellite subscription.

Global coverage via the Iridium satellite network—no need for mobile networks. In an emergency, you can send an SOS message to the Garmin Response center, which will dispatch the most appropriate rescue unit to your location. NOTE! Check the regulations for your destination: in some situations, you may be liable for rescue costs.
