The problem the first time was in the "charger" device, rather than the watch itself. I took it to a Garmin store, and ended up ordering a replacement watch through Amazon ... just swapped out the part that was identified as the issue and was back operational for a few weeks. But seeing the same behavior again, so wondering if I should have shipped back the whole watch.
I'm not sure why they need to charge this way, rather than using a connector similar to the ones I see in current cell phones. Or Bluetooth. Or something that doesn't require what appears to be a custom connection that is easily damaged and blows the whole value proposition with the watch.
