Which is quite odd. I myself go out for days and sometimes weeks, and one of the main features I look for is battery life and power management.
With a midtier Garmin Fenix I can easily get a week's worth of battery, and if I really need I can extend that up to maybe 20 days or so.
The Apple Watch just doesn't cut it. Can you imagine being out in a freezing mountain and having to charge the watch every day or run the risk of not being able to call up directions or help?
I also rock climb with my Fenix sapphire and except for a few light scratches on the titanium bezel, the watch is pristine despite the many crunchy scrapes and hits on hard rock. I'd love to know how well Apple's compare to that.
