Regatta countdown mode not controlled

The good news first: the clock is not too large and can normally be worn on the wrist or on the neoprene.
The operating concept is clearly structured, no problem, to wade through the menus.
Who as Dick ship sailors no GPS has hand or Reserve unit, should consider Quatix shortlisted.

Here is my big BUT: The Regatta countdown beeps neither the end of every minute and not just before the end of the countdown, nor can it be dubbed, yet he is facing the countdown to a stopwatch.
To me it is a mystery why Garmin has so inadequately implements this basic function and does not improve, even though the clock has already received firmware updates.
Perhaps the clock is geared more towards the large crew, where a timer in the starting phase, more or less completely to concentrate on the display of the clock. Just what makes the self when he accidentally started the countdown a little too early or too late? Resynchronize the current countdown is not provided.

Still under construction: The beeping of the clock is so quiet that you really can only hear in a quiet room. Does the Quatix with a series of race timers.
Very doubtful if anyone can Marine features like the anchor alarm to respond to the usual GPS, if it just does not carry the clock on the wrist and the vibration has to be activated.

Because it is the essential functions of GPS Marine Quatix years ago at the Foretrex for 129, - Euro was, I make here a harsh judgment in the text and give internally only two stars.
Because the Quatix represents a well-crafted GPS miniaturization and features "approach to the start line" and "turning tool" at least sound good, but I give three stars.
