Install a watch face.

Three steps on your phone or your computer. The face installs the next time the watch syncs.

01 On your phone

With the Connect IQ app.

  1. 01

    Open the face

    Tap Get it on Connect IQ on the face's page. The Connect IQ store opens (install the free Connect IQ app if you do not have it).

  2. 02

    Buy and install

    Tap Purchase, then Install. You pay once, in your own currency; updates are free.

  3. 03

    Pick it on the watch

    After the watch syncs, the face is active. To switch later, hold UP/MENU on the face and choose Watch face.

02 On a computer

With Garmin Express.

  1. 01

    Open the store page

    Click Get it on Connect IQ. The store opens in your browser; sign in with your Garmin account.

  2. 02

    Buy and send to the watch

    Click Purchase, then Download. The face is queued for your watch.

  3. 03

    Sync

    Connect the watch with its cable and open Garmin Express (Windows or Mac), or just sync with your phone. The face installs at the next sync.

03 Set it up

Change fields, colours and text

On the watch: hold UP/MENU on the face, choose Watch face, then Customize. Every change shows at once.

In the phone: open the Connect IQ app, go to My Device › Watch Faces, tap the face, then Settings. Own text (a name, a motto) is typed here. Save, and the watch picks it up on the next sync.
