No, 6x Pro is like the 'base model', you then either can choose sapphire screen model, or solar 'screen' model, otherwise the inners remain the same.

 

(I think)

New watch day! 6X sapphire!

 

It looks virtually identical to my 3 HR, it fits maybe even a tiny bit smaller on the wrist - the edges feel a bit 'smoother' if that makes sense. The screen size is the best part, lying side by side the old display size looks positively tiny. Amazing what a mm or two can do....

 

Many many options to have a play with

If I had larger wrists I would of gone for the X for the battery life.

The timing worked out well - my parents just got back from a holiday in the US, so I sent them on a mission to find stock :ph34r: .

 

$850, so I (think I) saved a couple bucks compared to buying it here.

But then you get the US maps don't you?

Oh, grief, good point. I'm not actually sure where I would find those anyway, we'll see

Got my 945 off Amazon delivered to a friend returning from California back in July, came with the US maps.  As soon as I registered the device with Garmin, connected it to Garmin express for the updates, it downloaded and installed Map Coverage of Europe,Middle East & Africa 5.60 as well as the original maps of North & South America 6.0, Coverage of Pacific 5.10 and also TopoActive Americas North 2019-10.(these the latest installed)

 

Check on Garmin express when you connect the F6 via a cable to PC/Laptop.  Will list all maps that have been synced

 

Edit if you need the TopoActive Africa maps, you can download them https://buy.garmin.com/en-ZA/ZA/p/648409#overview else install the OSM http://www.gmaptool.eu/en/content/africa-osm-topo

 

Personally I don't need the topo maps
