This all-in-one dive computer and smartwatch is powered by solar charging, offering up to 25 hours of battery life in dive mode and 124 days in smartwatch mode. The eco-friendly design aligns with Garmin’s commitment to environmental responsibility.
“From recreational to technical dives, the Descent Mk3 series and Descent T2 transceiver introduce innovative features, including SubWave sonar enhancements for seamless communication and requesting assistance from the wrist. These premium dive computers, coupled with air integration, DiveView maps, and dive readiness tools, become essential for exploring deeper waters. Simultaneously, our eco-friendly initiative shines with the Descent G1 Solar — Ocean Edition. Crafted from recycled ocean-bound plastics, it transforms materials once at risk into essential components for a sustainable dive experience,” said Mr. Scoppen Lin, Assistant General Manager, Garmin Asia.
