Overview & What’s in the Box

Official Garmin USB-C charging/data cable (0.5 m) designed to recharge compatible Garmin watches quickly and reliably. This compact cable connects your watch to any USB-C power source or computer for charging and data sync. Manufacturer part number 010-13278-01 and product number 660398 identify this genuine Garmin accessory. The cable ships in a compact package (2.75" x 0.75" x 6.75") and weighs just 0.1 lb, making it ideal for travel, race kits, or a tidy desk setup. Note: USB-C AC adapter is sold separately — plug the cable into any USB-C wall charger or laptop to recharge your device.

Technology & Construction

This Garmin cable pairs a USB-C plug with the Garmin watch charging interface and supports both power delivery for charging and data transfer for syncing activities. The cord is 0.5 meters (about 19.7 inches), a practical length that keeps your device close to the power source without excess slack that tangles or catches on equipment. Built for everyday carry, the cable features a flexible, protective jacket and reinforced, molded connector housings with integrated strain relief at both ends. The construction reduces stress at connection points and delivers consistent, reliable contact against Garmin's watch charging pins for fast, uninterrupted recharges.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this cable charge all Garmin watches?

This cable charges Garmin models that use a USB-C charging interface. Some older Garmin watches use proprietary pin chargers — check your watch manual or the Garmin product page to confirm USB-C compatibility before buying.

Can I use this cable for data transfer to my computer?

Yes. The cable supports USB-C data connectivity so you can sync workouts and transfer files when connected to a computer, in addition to charging your device.

Is the USB-C adapter included?

No. The cable includes only the 0.5 m cord and connectors. Use any USB-C wall adapter or a USB-C port on your laptop or power bank to charge your device.

What about durability and travel use?

The cable features reinforced molded connector housings and integrated strain relief to withstand daily plugging and packing. Its short length and light weight make it a convenient spare for travel or stashing in a kit bag.

Is this cable water-resistant or waterproof?

The cable’s connectors and jacket are designed for normal indoor and outdoor use but the cable itself is not a sealed waterproof assembly. Avoid submerging connectors and wipe dry if exposed to heavy moisture.

Can I use a longer USB-C cable instead?

Yes — a longer cable will work if it’s compatible with Garmin’s charging interface and supports USB-C power/data. Keep in mind longer cables can be bulkier and may charge slightly slower depending on cable gauge and power source.

Buying Guide

When choosing a charging cable for a Garmin watch, prioritize official or manufacturer-specified cables to ensure proper connector fit and safe charging. Decide on a length that matches how and where you’ll charge — 0.5 m is ideal for travel, race kits, and laptop syncing without excess slack. Also check the power source: pair this cable with a USB-C wall adapter or power bank rated for your device for faster, more reliable recharge times. Avoid inexpensive, unknown-brand chargers that may not provide stable power or can cause slow charging.
