Although i have just received this pouch, i'm sure over time it will give a little. Tight fit, but still offers access to buttons on face of garmin map 76CS
 Fantastic Case for Garmin GPSMAP 76CS August 15, 2005

I ordered this product for my new Garmin 76CS and while waiting for the shipping I pondered the scenario that perhaps the case was only useful for "storage" given that the design of the case completely covers the quad helix antenna that is on this particular unit. Given the sensitivity of the antenna, i.e., you lose reception when you place your hand over the front case of the unit-I reasoned that the case would more than likely shield some if not all satellite reception...rendering it useless for protecting the unit while in use. FORTUNATELY I WAS WRONG!!! I am getting very strong satellite reception with the case on the GPS unit; however, this may not be the case with other models, due to the nature of each antenna.
As far as longevity goes, the case is made out of neoprene (which I have had bad luck with in thinner layers) but the material is much thicker than what I was expecting so this is a plus. My only concern is the seam (threads) on the clear vinyl map/button Window and the neoprene material itself, as this would probably be the most likely place to rip. Only time will tell. Until then I am very pleased with this case from Gilsson Technologies!!!
