All-in-one dive computer and smartwatch adds a bright AMOLED display for easy reading at any depth plus tools for life in and out of the water
"Whether you're a novice diver or more seasoned, the Descent G2 is designed to grow with you—even into tech diving. And with popular features for life above the water like dive readiness, 24/7 heart rate, advanced sleep monitoring and more, there is no limit as to what this watch can do before, during and after your next dive."
–Dan Bartel, Garmin Vice President of Global Consumer Sales
Dive-ready design
Featuring a 1.2" AMOLED display, the Descent G2 makes it easier to read more data at a glance—even while underwater. Designed with environmental responsibility in mind, 100 percent of the plastic used to make the watch's housing, bezel and buttons come from recycled ocean-bound plastics. The rugged material is complemented by a strong sapphire lens, 100-meter dive-rated case and leakproof buttons. The Descent G2 is also available in two colorways – a popular black and a colorful paloma/shell pink – and is compatible with QuickFit™ bands so divers can easily change their band color to match the style of their gear.
Prepare for the next dive
Using the dive readiness feature on the Descent G2, divers can gain insights into how lifestyle factors like sleep, stress, recent exercise and jet lag can affect their body's overall preparedness to dive. A higher readiness score may suggest it's time to dive in while a lower score may be reason to consider using a higher conservatism setting or choose an easier dive.
