Bridger Watch a real review

[blacktailcentral]

I received my Bridger watch in May excited for the new tech. After having the watch for 2 months I can honestly say it does nothing that they advertised.... a clear example of over promising and under delivering. The watch had maximum 14 day battery life, while writing this I referenced there website and they have taken down the 30+ day life except for there FAQ section where they say that they are working on it. The watch also failed to do very simple things such as give reliable heart rate, even when the watch was set to read every minute it would not! And comparing it to a garmin and doing manual heart rate monitoring it was consistently no where near where it actually was. I used this on many rucks and scouting trips where I know my HR was 130-150 bpm and it would read 70. Also the mapping failed multiple time while out on scouting trips. The watch also failed to come close to tracking steps accurately.... something a $5 pedometer could do 20 years ago. I gave them a chance to send me another unit as maybe that is the issue...I received it monday and tried it out for the last two days....nothing has changed. I called and requested a refund and they gladly will do so, but they didn't even try to say their product was up to snuff. Please if you are interested do not buy, buy a garmin they have the watch game figured out. Lastly, if you are an influencer that said this product was be ashamed!
Truth , drop

So a hard pass on the Bridger Watch. Thanks
