Can I view the watch wearer's location online, or will I be required to contact the service center in order to use the locator function?

You can watch it online and also get text mesages ,the gps would switch to live track if the divice goes out of range

Sure through blue tooth connection. The cell phone in blue tooth in settings will show up there if you turn on the watch and select search on the cell phone. I'm very happy with the operation of the watch. My dentist laughed when I answered a call from my wife while in his chair working on my teeth.

Unfortunately you cannot download the data from this watch. Although while reading a review for this watch from this site "http://www.dcrainmaker.com/2012/03/99-timex-marathon-gps-in-depth-review.html" The author talks about the watch having similar charging cable as the Soleus GPS 2.0's charging cable. And goes in-depth into being able to "extract" the data using the soleus software. So if you feel adventurous you could probably try the steps the author did.

I purchased the system for a friend and he mentioned this problem, but when I checked it out (timer ect.) it did not malfunction on my watch. Now that you have peaked my intrest, I need to contact my friend and get an update.

Your watch should show you any nearby course that has been measured...name change may have had to be recorded somewhere...like USGA....mine shows any course near me with no action from me. I travel. Good luck.

Pretty close....plus or minus 10%.....You can check it with a bucket and the second hand on your watch.

I think there is only one person. You can change it easy on the website. My father has past away so I don't have the watch anymore. They are always updating the watch so you might want to call the company.

No Dick Tracy action here. When a call comes in, that info appears on the Pebble. You can accept/reject the call on the Pebble. But the watch has no microphone, so conversations still require the phone. For iPhone, a search on PEBBLE in the App Store yields relevant apps. They include one which allows you to use the watch to snap pics. Another amazingly provides turn by turn directions, via vibrations as you walk, telling you to turn left or right. The watch will always show the time, regardless of iPhone location. The rest is best explained by example. My chosen watchface/app = Futura, which shows time, Thu Dec 26, 39, and a weather icon (today, sunny & clear). I can move around my house, with the iPhone on another level/floor, risking the loss of only the weather info. Some days, I can roam around floor to floor, without loss of connection to the phone. Other days, I'm not so fortunate. Haven't figured out the precise real-world range yet. In any event, at worst, the icon and temp will disappear. When I'm back in range, that info soon reappears without any assistance on my part. FYI: I invested in a pouch -- which can be worn around the neck, or clipped with the carabiner supplied -- to keep the phone at hand, even when I have no pockets. Search here for neck-strap pouch iphone carabiner for options. Range from $6 to under $30. Some very highly rated. (As a woman, not all my clothing includes pockets. I've since cured that, via men's cargo sweats and the like for around the house. Turns out, they fit great and are of much higher quality that similar women's clothing. Go figure.)

Hello, the watch comes pre-loaded with courses (Mexico included) so you don't have to download any maps. But if a new course were to be built than you would need to.

P.S. Keep your operating instructions in a good place you need it to program the watch. If you lose the instructions you can get it online from the MedCenter site.

My watch came with an app called "Aptoide" I opened it and went to the search bar. From there you can enter "barcode scanner" or another title. (First you might want to check out some titles on https://play.google.com/store/apps?feature=corpus_selector & type "barcode scanner for android" in the search box to get specific titles.) When you have a title, search it in aptoide. It may not carry it & will direct you to "search other stores". Follow that & you will get a list of apps. Download then install. You might have to download intall a few before finding one that works well on your watch.

Hello Manuel, No it doesnt display your gps coordinates. It shows a dish looking icon that flashes for 30 seconds or so until the watch has locked on. Side note... Once I transfer my run to Endomondo, the google map route with the streets that I ran on will be there to look at. Hoped that helped.

The watch works on a satellite signal. Depending on trails, I would say if you don't get cell phone reception this will not have a signal either which might be cumbersome.

It depends on what you want from your Garmin watch. I wanted to know the distance to the green, period. I can estimate on my own how far it is to the dogleg, don't want to mess around with settings on the course, etc. I just want to look at my wrist and know the distance to the green, and it's very accurate for that.

Yes but you have to order it seperately from garmin. It's around $20. The watch only comes with a USB connection.

I suspect you can, but you should be able to get a definite answer by calling their service center at 1-800-328-2677 or writing to Service Center, P.O. Box 2740, Little Rock, AR 72203 as spelled out in the Timex Manual.

As long as your watch is connected to the Device Agent through your computer when you make changes, those changes are being made in your watch at the same time. It is much easier to make these changes using the Device Agent menu than using the watch buttons. Just make sure you have connected your watch to your computer prior to making changes in the Device Agent.
