A Dive Computer Built for Adventure

It’s more than just a dive computer—it's a multi-sport powerhouse equipped with multi-GNSS (GPS, GLONASS, and Galileo) support, so you can mark your surface entry and exit points, ensuring you never lose track of where you started or ended your dive.
Whether you’re a recreational diver exploring vibrant coral reefs, a technical diver requiring precise metrics, or a freediver testing your limits, the Descent™ G2 has got you covered. It supports a variety of diving modes, including Recreational Scuba, Technical Scuba, Freediving, and Pool Apnea, each with customisable settings to suit your specific needs. The customisable dive alerts allow you to set up to 40 alerts based on depth, time, or decompression limits to ensure safety while diving.
Sustainable Design for the Eco-Conscious Diver
Garmin has made a strong commitment to sustainability with the Descent™ G2. The housing, bezel, and buttons are made from 100% recycled ocean-bound plastics, helping to reduce plastic waste in our oceans. This eco-friendly construction doesn’t compromise on performance or durability, with a sapphire crystal lens providing superior scratch resistance and clarity.
Health and Fitness Tracking Beyond the Dive
The Descent™ G2 isn’t just for diving—it’s a complete health and fitness tracking tool that’s perfect for daily wear. The watch continuously monitors key metrics like 24/7 wrist-based heart rate, Pulse Ox (available in select regions), and Body Battery™ energy monitoring, providing you with detailed insights into your overall health. Sleep tracking and VO2 max measurement help you assess how well your body is recovering and adapting to training, while the Dive Readiness feature evaluates how prepared you are for your next dive based on your recent sleep, stress levels, and exercise.
In addition to health metrics, you can track activities like running, cycling, swimming, hiking, and more with built-in sports apps. For fitness enthusiasts, this dive computer doubles as a daily fitness tracker, helping you monitor your progress on land and sea.
