The Garmin Vivomove Sport Smartwatch in black silicon is designed for individuals who appreciate the classic elegance of an analog watch but desire the convenience of modern smart features. It excels at discreetly tracking daily activity, providing wellness insights, and delivering essential smart notifications directly to your wrist, helping you stay connected and active without sacrificing style. While it offers a comprehensive suite of smart features, its hybrid design means the digital display is subtle, requiring interaction primarily through the Garmin Connect app for detailed data viewing.

The Garmin Vivomove Sport excels as a stylish everyday companion that subtly enhances your daily routine with smart features. Its hybrid design means it blends effortlessly into professional settings, gym workouts, and casual outings alike.
For Daily Wear: The traditional analog hands provide immediate time-telling, while the hidden display illuminates only when needed, showing notifications or activity summaries with a quick glance or wrist gesture. It's comfortable enough to wear all day and night for continuous health tracking.
During Workouts: While not a dedicated multisport watch, the Vivomove Sport capably tracks walks, runs, and other activities. For outdoor activities like running or cycling, connect it to your smartphone's GPS via the Garmin Connect app for accurate distance and pace data. The silicon strap handles sweat well, and the watch's durability withstands daily exercise.
Staying Connected: Smart notifications are delivered discreetly, vibrating on your wrist. You can quickly see who's calling or read snippets of texts, allowing you to decide if a phone check is necessary without interrupting your current activity. This feature is particularly useful in meetings or during commutes.
Health Monitoring: The watch continuously monitors your heart rate, stress levels, and Body Battery™ energy. These insights, viewable in detail on the Garmin Connect app, help you understand your body's responses to daily life, recovery needs, and overall well-being. Sleep tracking provides valuable data on sleep stages and quality.
Its performance is optimized for those who want smart functionality to complement, not dominate, their watch experience.
