Garmin Descent™ Mk3i, Dive Computer and Multisport GPS Smartwatch, Air Integration, Black

Product Description:
Discover a deeper connection with the Descent™ Mk3i watch-style dive computer. It features multiple dive modes plus SubWave™ sonar technology for diver-to-diver communication via preset messages (available with software v.15.70 or later). The device also supports monitoring of tank pressures and depth for up to eight networked divers, when paired with the Descent™ T2 transceiver (sold separately). A built-in LED flashlight keeps you going in low-light conditions, above or below water. Purpose-built specifically for divers, the Descent Mk3i dive computer combines a bright 1.4” AMOLED display with scratch-resistant sapphire lens, 200-meter dive-rated case and metal leakproof inductive buttons. DiveView™ maps offer bathymetric depth contours and more than 4,000 dive sites to help you find where to dive and get oriented. Plus, a dive readiness tool, developed by Garmin, shows how lifestyle factors such as sleep, exercise, stress and jet lag can affect your body’s overall preparedness for diving — so, ultimately, you can make better-informed dive plan decisions (data presented is intended to be a close estimation of metrics tracked). This dive computer is designed to help maximize your preparation for the physical and mental challenges of diving. When you’re ashore, built-in sports apps help you stay on top of your fitness, while Garmin Pay™ contactless payments, music storage and smart notifications keep you connected (compatible smartphone required).
Advanced, watch-style dive computer features a stunning 1.4” AMOLED display, scratch-resistant sapphire lens, 51 mm titanium bezel and optional titanium bracelet

Title: chose this over fenix 8
Review: I’ve worn a Garmin watch for more than a decade, starting with the forerunner 920xt, fenix 5, 6, epix 2. the consolidation of all my health stats and activities in one place and the amount of detail is unmatched by any other trackerI chose the descent because I’m getting into diving. at first I thought the fenix 8 was right for me but the air integration is a must. helps you track your air consumption in much more detail (see the reviews for the descent t2 transmitter)the fenix 8 is also limited to recreational depths, and if you remotely think you might want to get into tec diving or deeper depths, you need the descentas someone who also tracks all runs, bike rides, hikes, workouts etc, the descent is the closest thing to the perfect daily companionthe only minor downside is that the screen is not quite as large as dedicated high end dive computers like the shearwaters, but all the functionality is there

Title: Just wow!
Review: For my very first smartwatch I am 100% confident I chose correctly. This thing has soo much built into it, it’s gonna take me a good week to learn it. Taking it diving Sunday. The brightness and color screen alone will outshine my vyper novo. Also picked up the T2 sonar transceiver, I feel excited like a kid with a new toy! Will update after I get it wet. Update: this is the best dive computer I have ever used, clear and easy to read under water, vibration for alerts is awesome, alerted me at 1500psi which my other computer did not, clear color notification when safety stop is cleared, alerts when depending or ascending too fast! Man have I been missing out. If you don’t own this, you should!!! Also super easy to use, I thought it was gonna be a learning process, but I was wrong, extremely user friendly.

Title: Great improvement over Mk2
Review: I had the Mk1, upgraded to the Ml2 then to this when released. The upgraded screen is amazing and they have fixed the issue with accidental button presses.

Review: A dive watch you can wear to work and to the gym. For the price point of a dive watch, it’s nice to be able to use it for more than just diving. This watch offers so much data, customizable algorithm and so far, a totally reliable connection (Even though I still dive with a backup SPG and backup computer). I haven’t had a chance to use the diver to diver messaging yet, but I’m excited for the first time I go diving with someone else who has this watch. The flashlight is surprisingly useful.

Review: Replaced my Suunto D5 with this beast. Absolutely beautiful watch with all around capability for all activities but especially great for diving. I enjoy freediving as well as scuba and this watch really does it all perfectly.
