Garmin Descent™ Mk3i, Watch-Style Dive Computer, 51mm, Black | Subwave Sonar Networking, Multiple Dive Modes, Dive Focused Design, Dive Readiness Tool, Built-In Flashlight, Dive Log

I recently took the Mk3i with me to the Philippines for diving, and it exceeded my expectations. The battery life is outstanding, and it performed flawlessly during my SCUBA dives. I paired it with the wireless air pod for my tank, which allowed me to monitor my air supply or track a less experienced diver—an excellent safety feature, even though the pods are a bit pricey. I opted for the larger model with a built-in flashlight, which I initially thought I wouldn’t use but now rely on all the time. The red light mode is especially useful for staying visible when walking on dark streets at night. With so many features packed into this watch, it’s a top-tier dive computer and more. The only small downside is that the buttons can be too easily pressed, but it's not a deal-breaker. If you can invest in it, I highly recommend it for its versatility, durability, and safety-enhancing features.

Excellent daily watch. Works great for dives.

Nice product

I've worn a Garmin watch for more than a decade, starting with the forerunner 920xt, fenix 5, 6, epix 2. the consolidation of all my health stats and activities in one place and the amount of detail is unmatched by any other tracker I chose the descent because I'm getting into diving. at first I thought the fenix 8 was right for me but the air integration is a must. helps you track your air consumption in much more detail (see the reviews for the descent t2 transmitter) the fenix 8 is also limited to recreational depths, and if you remotely think you might want to get into tec diving or deeper depths, you need the descent as someone who also tracks all runs, bike rides, hikes, workouts etc, the descent is the closest thing to the perfect daily companion the only minor downside is that the screen is not quite as large as dedicated high end dive computers like the shearwaters, but all the functionality is there

The watch is great. Has so many features I’ll probably never use. But the diving portion paired with the t2 was exactly what I was looking for.

The Garmin mk3i 51 mm is my go to watch for fitness training and scuba diving. I've tested the watch for a month. Gym workouts several times a week, and multiple dives to around 85 feet. It's very durable in both. With a minor scratch on the glass. I recommend putting a screen protector on it when you first get the watch. Value for the money? Yes if you are in need of a fitness tracker and dive computer. You get the best of both worlds. 100% yes! Buy this watch if you are very active in and out of the water. You'll never use all it has to offer, but you'll have room to grow and change your outdoor life style.

great battery life, great functionality, my new everyday watch

I have a Garmin Descent Mk3i with the sapphire face. My previous Garmin — a Fenix 5 Sapphire — survived from 2017 to 2024 without a single scratch. That watch went through workouts, travel, field time, abuse, and life in general like it was forged in Mount Doom. The new Descent Mk3i? It survived scuba diving and an overseas military deployment… only to pick up TWO scratches in one week inside my own house. Inside. My. House. Apparently the deadliest operating environment for modern “sapphire” is whatever’s happening between my kitchen and living room. What the heck happened to Garmin’s sapphire quality control? Did they switch suppliers to Kramerica Industries? Great Watch otherwise.

Un muy buen equipo para bucear, si no te gustan los relojes grandes... este no es para ti . es grande pero es muy bueno.

Awesome product. It has all the features my fenix has and can be used for diving. Can’t wait to use it for OW.

Orologio acquistato principalmente per le immersioni, molto preciso e configurabile, ma per usarlo appieno va letto gran pparte del libretto uso e manutenzione (180 pag.) E' stato sostituito ad un sunto ocea, che però nella parte subacquea risultava più versatile, spece nella parte no deco e risalite. Ha un design molto bello, da tenere conto che il 51 mm è molto grande e si fa fatica a volte a gestirlo. Viene fornito con un cinturino più lungo per agevolare il fissaggio in muta. Batteria dura circa 10 giorni.

Great computer. It is a big step up from my MK2i. It has a much brighter screen which makes reading the gauges easier at depth. Add it all the other features and it is the perfect watch for anyone out there.

Buena computadora de buceo, la utilizo como compu de respaldo y me arroja los mismos tiempos de fondo que mi Teric. Le compré un protector de plástico y eso la ha protegido muchísimo de golpes en el bisel. La carátula y datos durante el buceo son muy visibles, es fácil cambiar de gas o que muestre otros datos apretando un botón. Gracias a las apps de Garmin también puedes cambiar la carátula del modo reloj y personalizar casi cada valor. Es un juguete caro, espero que el uso diario no afecte al sensor de profundidad. Después de un mes de uso y 5 buceos, lo recomiendo
