I have a confession to make: I’ve never climbed a rock wall and honestly had no plans to do so. However, when Garmin invited me to take a short break from the CES 2025 grind to try out a pair of its newest rugged smartwatches, I agreed, if only for the chance to try out one, the Solar Instinct 3 with battery life that will last forever.
The Garmin Instinct 3 rugged watches have bold, even aggressive looks and seem more than up to the task of surviving a rock climbing wall fall (Editor's note: Nobody fell).
