Know before you buy
Yes, the GizzmoVest is specifically engineered to provide a precise, snug fit for both the Garmin Astro 320 and 430 handheld units.
Not at all. The case is designed to accommodate both the standard Garmin extended antennas and many aftermarket antenna options, ensuring your signal remains unobstructed.
The case features a raised-edge design that deeply recesses the screen. This creates a protective buffer that prevents the display from making direct contact with flat surfaces during an impact.
No, the GizzmoVest is not waterproof. While the high-tech composite and rubber-skin material are durable and fully washable, the case itself does not provide a waterproof seal for your GPS device.
Yes, the case is designed to provide full access to the touchscreen and all primary buttons, allowing you to operate your device normally without removing the vest.
Because the material is fully washable, you can simply remove the case from your device and rinse it with water and mild soap. Ensure it is completely dry before reattaching it to your GPS unit.
