The warranty is a year. Nevertheless, Garmin does allow their support folks to extend this. It would take some time, but it might be worth another call. It may or may not work. You could also ask to elevate it to a supervisor.

I purchased the Garmin Forerunner 405 a year and a half ago. Needless to say it was the worst purchase of my life. I bought my Garmin 405 for $350 with the heart rate monitor, and it recently had some battery issues. I called support services, and they were very rude, and told me that I need to send it in to get fixed for $90! Apparently, after I sent my watch in to get fixed, I would be given another competely different watch that was restored, which only came with a 90 day warranty. Do not buy this watch!
