Garmin Oregon 550t Tactical Black
The Garmin Oregon is a really cool GPS. I downloaded some other maps off of the Internet they worked beautifully on it. Amazing, I have one download that has every structure in my state, (Montana). Additionally, I find the Oregon easy to operate. It has quite a long battery life and I can read it just fine in the middle of a bright sunny day. I hope Garman someday we'll figure out that some of the features are more difficult than they need to be to use. But, that's the case with all of the GPS units I have ever used, this one is one of the best. The camera function is well worth it. I can either go to a waypoint or I can open the photo and press go, just that easy. I've used it while flyfishing to take pictures of my fish, and later I have located that stretch of water on Google earth. The big plus using this Garmin to take pictures of fish is the unit is water proof, nice!

Having this product makes us feel a lot less worried about dropping our GPS. No way it will break being protected by the GizzMoVest. The case fits nicely and still allows you to switch the GPS on/off easily. The sturdy look also is a big plus. No regrets of having purchased this product at all.
ReplyDeleteAs the title says, this is a fantastic product that will drastically increase the survivability of your Garmin Oregon. The texturing of the Gizzmovest case adds extreme "grippability" to the slippery Oregon. It has a wonderful feel to it. Fit and finish is first rate will all seams lining up perfectly. The stainless steel clip on the back is very heavy duty and functions well. This is my fourth Gizzmovest case and they seem to get better with time. With a small loop of braided wire, i was able to add my Garmin carabiner to the Gizzmovest belt clip. This adds versatility to the case and is easy enough to take off if it gets in the way. Installation and removal of the Oregon from this case is a piece of cake and takes just seconds. Its hard to tell from the pictures but Gizzmovest added somewhat bulbous (for lack of a better term) corners to this case which will add significantly to the drop protection afforded. Very nice to see a quality, well thought out, US made product. Highly recommended!
ReplyDeletePS. Extra kudos to Gizzmovest for shipping the unit express mail. I didnt request this service but was happy to see the case delivered in 2 short days all the way from California to Florida. First rate service!

I was looking at Garmin's cases for my Oregon 450 and spotted the Gizz on Amazon. After reading the other reviews I ordered my GizzMoVest. Like the other reviewers, it arrived faster than I expected. It feels and looks great, just what I hoped for! Glad to have a U.S.A. product!

ReplyDeleteAs someone who puts cases on all portable electronics, I can say that this is certainly a great case. For a GPS unit that will go hiking, camping, geocaching, fishing, and more, having a rugged case was important to me. This case does add some bulk to my GPSr, but the ruggedness and protection it provies is worth it. The belt clip is good and the lanyard is useful idea.
ReplyDeleteOne of the other great things about this case and the manufacturer is their warranty. Basically if within three years you have any issues or if the case gets destroyed, you can send it back for replacement. Can't go wrong there.
My husband ordered one for his 62. Once I saw the construction, I ordered mine the same day he received his. It shipped that day and I received it in about 2 or 3(was at the Texas Challenge and it was at my house when I got home). Haven't found any other cases for it that looked like it would do the job. I'm clumsy and needed something sturdy. I did replace the plastic clip as I prefer a metal carabiner on everything but all in all the plastic molding fits perfectly around my Oregon 450 and has little indention for turning it on and off without me worrying about hitting that button accidentally and it turning off while I'm in the field.

ReplyDeleteI really like the videos that people post on here. I like to be able see videos of the product verses still photos, so I thought I would post a quick video of the Gizzmovest for my Garmin Dakota 20. Thanks for watching.
Great product for my Garmin. The products of your company should be offered in Germany because there is no better case for the Oregons here.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great case. I like the solid construction and the included lanyard and clip. The additional bulk is not a problem for me, and I like the non-slip feel. As other reviewers have noted, I wish it had a screen protector, but I added a ZAGG InvisibleShield to my Oregon 450. I'm confident I have protected my Oregon 450 as much as I need for hunting, hiking and fishing.
