Garmin Descent G1 Solar Dive Watch
The Garmin Descent G1 Solar is a compact, watch-style dive computer that's just as at home on the boat, the beach or the trail as it is on the reef. This black version packs a proper dive feature set – single and multi-gas diving with nitrox and trimix, gauge, apnea, apnea hunt and closed-circuit rebreather modes – into a rugged case with a sapphire lens, a 100 m water rating and MIL-STD-810 toughness.
Solar charging makes a real difference on a dive trip. You get up to 25 hours in dive mode, up to 124 days in smartwatch mode with solar and up to 39 hours in GPS mode with solar, so you're not hunting for a charger every night. On the surface, multi-GNSS marks your entry and exit points, and the 3-axis compass helps you navigate once you're under. After the dive, up to 200 dives are stored on the watch and you can review and share them in the Garmin Dive™ app.
Out of the water, it's a full Garmin smartwatch. You get 30+ sports apps, wrist-based heart rate, sleep and recovery tracking, Body Battery™ energy monitoring, smart notifications and Garmin Pay™ – one device for both worlds.
Features:
- Multiple dive modes — single gas and multi-gas (including nitrox and trimix), gauge, apnea, apnea hunt and closed-circuit rebreather.
- Customisable dive screens — add extra screens to each dive mode with the data fields you actually want to see.
- Solar charging — up to 25 hours in dive mode, up to 124 days in smartwatch mode and up to 39 hours in GPS mode when solar charging.
- Surface multi-GNSS — marks your surface entry and exit points so you can find that site again.
- 3-axis dive compass — built-in compass for underwater navigation.
- 200-dive logbook — upload, review and share your dives in the Garmin Dive™ app.
- Tough build — sapphire lens, 100 m water rating and MIL-STD-810 rated construction, with silicone QuickFit® bands.
- High-contrast display — easy-to-read monochrome screen, above and below the surface.
- inReach® compatible — pairs with inReach satellite communicators and the inReach dive case (each sold separately).
- Tides and surf — tide data and Surfline® conditions (tide, wave height, wind and surf rating) for the five nearest surf spots when paired with your smartphone.
- Training and health tools — 30+ sports apps, wrist-based heart rate, training status, recovery time, fitness age, daily suggested workouts, sleep score, all-day respiration, Body Battery™, intensity minutes, hydration and women's health tracking.
- Smart features — smart notifications, incident detection and live location sharing (when paired with your phone), Garmin Pay™ contactless payments and the Connect IQ™ Store.
