Works pretty good with Rino 655T, but the velcro attachment points could be a bit longer, as there is a bit of unsupported weight on the top side with those!
This looked like an awesome product idea with only one slight problem.
Very good product if you have one of the compatible GPS'.
great product, cant wait to get in the high country with it.
Except nothing but a good product for the money from Garmin.

If you are going through rough terrain / not on trails, then i recommend finding another way to secure as it may rip off and you could lose
This seems like a great idea, but I just didn't like it.
I have friends that use the retactable key rings and they are not as happy, as those are either not strong enough to keep the GPS in place, or fatigues the hand / arm while holding it in an extended possition for longer periods of time

Happy to report that this little device worked extremely well far exceeding my expectations.
Easy access but, the Velcro is bit loud when you are really trying to be quiet while observing wildlife

Maybe this tether will work fine with smaller GPS receivers from Garmin, I have an Oregon 650 now, and the weight keeps this accessory tilted down, and sooner or later the velcro will lose its grip

Only thing I don't like about it is the tether itself.
After losing a DeLorme InReach hiking in Yosemite I purchased a new Garmin InReach Explorer and am determined not to lose this thing.
Perfectly and fully functional and best of all, I don’t worry about losing the Garmin.

The product design is excellent, and the Garmin felt secure once applied, HOWEVER I had to order this twice due to the fact that the device arrived broken.

If I were Garmin, I'd be embarrassed to sell a product with such cheap crappy materials!The item is still usable, and the actual strap and clip work well.

I installed a 3 mm cord, sized shorter than the "stock cord" provided and am using a conventional cord lock of a greater quality.
Replaced it with my own thinner/stronger/higher quality cord and it works much better

Well worth the money to protect the far more expensive GPS!
That will make it very difficult to rip off of the shoulder strap and perhaps lose the GPS

Been on 30 hikes now and keeps my GPS out of the way but easy to get to
