Garmin Descent Mk2i, Watch-style Dive Computer with Air Integration, Multisport Training/Smart Features, Titanium with Black Band

I bought this watch as I am developing the mid life problem that is short-sightedness and could no longer read the dial of my dive watch. up to now I had 3 watches - a day watch, Dive computer and a fitness tracker for sport. When I saw this I took the plunge to try to combine all 3. I am very impressed. After purchase it arrived quickly and well packaged. Initially I was disapointed withthe brightness of the display but once you realise it is an LCD rather than OLED and is not effected by sunlight then you don't worry - I have never had a problem reading the face ion all lighting conditions even in 10m murky water. It transpired it was a US import despite being sold direct from Amazon and came with the americain maps installed - Amazon Customer Services refunded the £50 required to download the European maps from Garmin. As a dive watch - I am afraid I can not report on the decompression or dive planning as I am a freediver but for this it is great and I particularly like the haptic feedback alarm. For other sports it has a pulse oxymiter (does not work through a wetsuit!) and a wrist based HRM built in however I found this to be wildly inaccurate when running - it seems to pick up on cadence rather than HR if doing a hard run. I have pared it with a Garmin Tri HRM which sorts out that problem - I have not yet tried this when diving but it says it will record your stats & transmit them to the watch when out of the water. Overall I am delighted with the watch on all fronts, it meets all my needs and excedes them. Yes it is pricy, but it has replaced 2 watches and a dive computer - oh & I forgot the 28day rechargable battery life (depending on activity). I will be taking it Skiing in January and it can download all the world's ski resort maps! We wil see how good that is.

I'm genuinely amazed by this watch. I've been using a WearOs smartwatch for a couple of years now, and was worried about missing some functionality when switching to Garmin. I must say I've been pleasantly surprised, as for the moment I see no drawbacks. Battery life is spectacular, worout tracking is also very good and detailed. The only OOB functionality I'm not too happy about is sleep tracking. I've found it to be a tad inconsistent and it usually underreports the amount of time I've slept. On major annoyance is that if I set and alarm for say, 6:30AM and then snooze it and continue sleeping, the extra sleep will not be counted. Regarding its main use: it's a stellar diving computer, easy to see underwater and lots of comprehensive data & customization. We're in fact looking to buy an MK2s for my partner.

I had purchased this as a backup dive computer for a recent trip after my older computer used as backup finally failed. I quickly moved this to my primary computer because of its attractive watch face and the information it provides. Dove this watch in Cayman Brac and was impressed with the detailed dive log that included the location on a map of where the dive took place. Diving with Nitrox mix was no problem with this watch. Several days into diving our dive day was cancelled due to high winds and small craft warnings. As an avid cyclist, I opted to take one of the resort's complimentary bicycles (the old one-spd coast-brake models) on a ride from one end of the island to the other. Using my phone and my RidewithGPS App, I was able to download a local ride map from the island to my phone and then import it to the Mk2. This saved me a number of wrong turns down deadend roads while giving me a moving map of my ride along with distance and other data. Upon completing the ride, I had again a record of that ride on my Garmin Connect App, including a map overview of the route and lots of fitness data regarding the ride. I rate the sleep monitor down on this because it's really not practical for wearing during sleep due to the large size and weight of the watch (at least for me). I was so impressed with the performance of this watch, that I ordered a full suite of Garmin products to fully monitor my fitness and exercise data upon my return home. I'll be giving my thoughts on those products when I use them. I have received the first of them today - the Vivosmart 5, which I bought primarily for my indoor cycle trainer and for sleep monitoring because it is lightweight and sleek. I highly recommend this diving computer and multi-fitness watch.

Used this on a number of casual (air, 25m max) dives and so far I am impressed. It's a good dive computer with better connectivity and export features than some of the Mares devices I had used before. Having a GPS on the dive computer is nice for entry/exit points and the APNEA functionality work well. Display is easy to read at the surface and in the water. It's also a good smart watch. I am/was mostly an Apple Watch user and Garmin's product is impressive. Flexibility of custom watch faces is far ahead of Apple, some tracking features are more precise and most alerts from an iPhone show up fine. Garming's apps are a bit of a mess (you need 3 separate ones) but they are functional. Watch UI for configuring the watch and the apps is terrible and the logic of what the different buttons do is hard to fathom, but you don't need it that much. Battery life is amazing and for me runs at about 2 weeks. Overall, this is a great dive/smart watch hybrid. For a normal day at work, I'll continue to use the apple watch but for outdoor activities and vacation this is now my main watch.
