How to find your Garmin Watch Model

On your Garmin Watch, press the Menu button (often the middle or top button on the right side, depending on the model) to access the main menu. Look for the Settings option, which may have a gear icon , and select it by tapping or pressing the Select button (usually the bottom-right button).

Where to find it:

If your watch face is showing, tap the screen (if touchscreen) or press and hold the Menu button to wake the menu. Scroll with the Up or Down buttons (typically on the left or right side) or tap to find Settings with the gear icon .

In the Settings menu, scroll using the Up or Down buttons or tap the screen (if touchscreen) and select System. On some older models, you might see About directly instead—select that if it's available.

If you chose System, scroll and select About (sometimes labeled Device Info or Watch Info). This opens a page with details about your Garmin Watch.

• Look for an entry like Model, Device Name, or Unit ID. This shows your watch model (e.g., "Garmin Forerunner 955" or "Garmin Fenix 7").
• If you only see a Unit ID (e.g., a 10-digit number) or Part Number (e.g., "006-B1234-00"), note it and check Garmin's support site (see Tips) to match it to the model.

That's it! You've found your Garmin Watch model. Write it down or use it as needed.

On your phone (paired with the watch), look for the Garmin Connect app, which has a blue icon with a white "G" and dots. Alternatively, on a computer, use Garmin Express (download from garmin.com/express if needed). Tap or click to open.

Where to find it on phone:

• Home Screen: Check your home screen for the Garmin Connect app and tap it.
• App Drawer/Library: Swipe up (Android) or left to App Library (iPhone), tap the search bar, type "Garmin Connect," and select it.
• Search: Swipe down from the top (Android) or middle (iPhone) of the home screen, type "Garmin Connect," and tap it.

On computer:

Open Garmin Express from your desktop or applications folder after connecting your watch via USB.

• Garmin Connect (Phone): Once opened, the app should show your watch's name (e.g., "Forerunner 955") at the top if it's connected. Tap it if multiple devices are listed.
• Garmin Express (Computer): Click Add a Device if it's your first time, or select your watch from the list of devices shown.

• Garmin Connect: Tap More (three dots or lines, bottom-right on iPhone, top-right on Android), then Garmin Devices, select your watch, and look for Device Name or Model.
• Garmin Express: After selecting your watch, the model name (e.g., "Garmin Venu 3") appears at the top of the device summary screen. You might also see a Unit ID or Part Number.

That's it! You've found your Garmin Watch model. Note it down or use it as needed.
