Sorry assumed it was GPS, here's the info of the garmin website for the swimming app.

Dive In

Auto Length accelerometer-based technology automatically gauges total and interval distance; laps; calories burned; session average, interval and length pace; and stroke count, including number of strokes per length and interval and session averages. Let the swimming app calculate your efficiency with swolf, which adds the time and the number of strokes it takes to swim a pool length. View your time and interval distance at a glance. Interval Count lets you seamlessly pause and then resume your workout.

The thin profile cuts through the water, and its 5 ATM water rating means you can swim, sweat and shower with it on, worry-free

Cheers matey, that's quite impressive.

It's a great piece of kit... And also like a smart watch so can read messages and push notifications on it too.

I use the Garmin 225 to log all my stats and it's waterproof to 5ATM (won't ever require that though) so can wear it swimming, just doesn't record anything, so I manually enter. the good thing about it is I don't need a HRM with it as it records via the wrist like a lot of them now.

Greg, I bought the surge. Very happy with it! Just a little chunky when you wear a suit.

Got the Mrs a Fitbit Charge HR for Xmas as it was on deal at Argos... She loved it and it was pretty good... and then she had loads of problem in measuring and syncing with her iphony. So now it is lying next to the ironing heap as part of the furniture.

Raised it with FB and they are sending a replacement, no questions asked... It will arrive before the week is out.
