THE DIVE COMPUTER FOR BOTH YOUR WORLDS

This is the smaller, watch-style dive computer that features multiple modes as well as multisport training and smart features.

 

Choose from multiple dive modes for your underwater adventure.

Battery life doesn’t limit you. Up to 7 days in smartwatch mode.

Measure your performance, and track your stats above water.

More sports apps, such as golfing and skiing, mean more ways to play.

This smart dive computer features Garmin Pay™ contactless payments1, music storage and notifications2.

Share and review dives in the Garmin Dive™ app3.

DIVE MODES

Get multiple dive modes for single and multiple gas dives (including nitrox and trimix), gauge, apnea, apnea hunt and closed-circuit rebreather.

CUSTOMISABLE DIVE MODES

Add additional screens for each dive mode that feature the fields you want to see.

SURFACE MULTI-GNSS

Track your entry and exit4 points with advanced satellite connectivity.

DIVE LOG

Store and review data for up to 200 dives — and share via the Garmin Dive app.

INREACH® COMPATIBLE

Pair with inReach satellite communicators5 and the inReach dive case.

SPORTS APPS

Use preloaded activity profiles for trail running, swimming, running, biking, hiking, rowing, skiing, golfing and more.

SURF-READY FEATURES

Get ready to catch some waves. Use the Surfline Sessions™ app on your compatible smartphone with your paired Descent Mk2S dive computer to create a video of every wave you ride in front of your Surfline® camera. Watch the videos later to see how you did.

BACKCOUNTRY SKI

Stay informed when you’re in the snow. This preloaded profile can distinguish between skiing and climbing. It automatically shows metrics specific to either ascent or descent.

XC Ski Dynamics

When paired with the HRM-Pro™ chest strap (sold separately), the ski power metric helps measure the actual exercise load of cross-country workouts.

MTB DYNAMICS

Track the details of every ride with mountain biking metrics plus specialised grit and flow measurements that rate trail difficulty and how smoothly you descend, giving you a score to beat next time.

PERFORMANCE METRICS

View advanced training metrics that include running dynamics, heat and altitude acclimation-adjusted VO2 max, recovery advisor and more6.

TRAIL RUN VO2 MAX

Trail run VO2 max tracks your cardiovascular fitness level and adjusts based on trail conditions.

For training guidance that takes you and your fitness level into account, get daily run and ride suggestions based on your current training load and status.

ANIMATED WORKOUTS

WRIST-BASED HEART RATE

Optical heart rate6 technology gauges activity intensity as well as Heart Rate Variability to calculate your stress level. It also tracks underwater without a heart rate strap.

PULSE OX SENSOR

For altitude acclimation or sleep monitoring, a Pulse Ox7 sensor uses light beams at your wrist to gauge how well your body is absorbing oxygen.

ALL DAY RESPIRATION

Track how you’re breathing throughout the day, during sleep and during breathwork and activities such as yoga.

ADVANCED SLEEP MONITORING

Get a full breakdown of your light, deep and REM sleep stages6 as well as Pulse Ox7 and respiration data. View it all on a dedicated widget that includes your stress score and other insights.
