But when he tried downloading new watch faces a problem emerged
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
After many internet searches we learned that the software on the watch was out of date which looking back probably should have been expected – these may have been sitting in a warehouse for god knows how long and it’s possible that garmin had released some updates since that time

After that zero issues – the watch faces downloaded widgets were added and all was right in whoville
