Watch is amazing. My 4th forerunner but the previous ones have all been low/middle of the range so a big jump in terms of extra features. There is no amp yellow in the strap, that must be a spec in other regions as I saw pictures before buying of some with the yellow in the strap and the description said black/amp yellow but the centre part of the strap is clear. Only issue so far but this is an issue I have had with all garmin touch screen watches is in the shower the water makes the screen come on and pushes things. If you not careful you can start activities or change settings. There is a nice feature on the 970 that is not on all touchscreen garmins where you can lock the screen. As soon as you want to use the touch screen you need to drag down from the top and the water has yet to do that so since activating that, no issues in the shower.
