We have already asked our suppliers and unfortunately a date of sale is not known. As soon as we have the clock in our range, we will publish this on our website.
We have the 0.5 meter version, it has a different manufacturer number but it is compatible with the Epix 2: Garmin Charging Cable
We do not sell other versions unfortunately.
We offer the product from various dealers. The chart refers to the offer from us (Garmin epix Sapphire for CHF 906.- Availability: Pre-order without confirmed delivery date. More than 10 ordered from supplier.) while the price of CHF 978.95 refers to the offer from bergzeit DE (Garmin epix Sapphire. Availability: Delivered between Thu 16.6. and Mon 20.6.
More than 10 pieces ready for shipment from external stock). You can select the provider below the product image.
The models are technically identical. As we purchase the devices from different suppliers at different conditions, there may be differences in price and availability.
Please contact our customer service directly so that we can offer you an appropriate solution.

Unfortunately, I cannot check this technically. So far, however, the watch has not had a single scratch, which would indicate sapphire. And the watch is used very intensively. Normally, the 47 mm in white is equipped with sapphire and the smaller white watch only with Gorilla glass. I hope I have helped with this answer.
The watch is reliable. Many different measurements. Main problem: two memory sizes, the smaller one is cheaper but clearly TOO SMALL. So buy the larger version.
I don't have any experience with battery replacement, but I read that it is possible.
When I see how many Fenix 3s my colleagues are still using, I would assume that the batteries will last a very long time, as they don't have to be charged every day.
It may happen that the altimeter does not work properly, but it should be possible to recalibrate it, as you have already tried. If it still does not work, you can return the watch within the warranty period. It can then be repaired or replaced.

We generally work with daily prices. This means that the price can be adjusted at any time. It is best to check the article again and again. Further down on this article page you will find the price development statistics, where you can see the prices of the last three months.
Garmin makes the following specifications:
Smartwatch: Up to 16 days (6 days in always-on mode).
- Energy-saving mode: Up to 21 days
- GPS only: Up to 42 hours (30 hours in always-on mode)
- All satellite systems: Up to 32 hours (24 hours in Always-On mode)

For a narrower wrist, e.g. also for women, I find the Epix 2 as well as the Fenix 7 too big. The Epix comes in one size, while the Fenix comes in different sizes. If a good resolution is important to you, then I recommend the Epix. But the runtime is shorter (16 days without recharging).
According to the manufacturer, these functions are also included:
- Barometric altimeter
- Accelerometer
- Ambient light sensor

I will be happy to add the specifications.
Since we generally work with daily prices and different suppliers, the item prices can rise or fall at any time. It is best to briefly check the price development statistics, which you can find above. The watch was only available at this price for 2 days.
