    Garmin Descent vs. Suunto Dive Watches

    @roland You should read forum Descent Mk1 - Garmin Forums Briefly: MK1 sold in Europe has mainly European maps, while MK1 purchased anywhere outside the EU does not have EU maps installed.

    Garmin Descent vs. Suunto Dive Watches

    Of course, AI is very useful function, especially for those of you who dive with your own equipment. For me that I travel (sometimes even in very distant places) and renting equipment there, AI is not crucial at all, because rented equipment is not equipped with AI transmitters. For me, Descent...

    Garmin Descent MK1 - Wish List, Reliability and other MK1 related things.

    As recreational and free diver I'm still extremely satisfied with Descent MK1. I do not have any problems at all with it: the depth sensor works as expected (last used diving modes is activated automatically at 1.2 m depth), UW compass is fixed and I do not have any problems in other sports...

    Garmin Descent vs. Suunto Dive Watches

    @marshallkarp As far as I know, all Garmin watches are compliant to IPX standard, only Garmin Descent MK1 is compliant to EN13319 standard which, in opposed to the IPX standard, allows the use of all functions (especially the push of buttons) even deep underwater. That's why I'm sure that only...

    Garmin Descent vs. Suunto Dive Watches

    Just check User Manuals for both, Descent MK1 and Fenix 5x, and read this https://www.dcrainmaker.com/2017/10/garmins-descent-mk1-diving-gps.html/ you will find that there are no such differences between the two devices.

    Garmin entering the dive industry?

    Here Connect IQ | Garmin is everything you can "put" on Descent MK1! Yesterday I (finally!) got mine Silver Sapphire Descent MK1 with Black Band! It is incredible watch - really true all-in-one instrument in the size of the watch!

    Garmin Descent vs. Suunto Dive Watches

    It certainly paid off to me, because I now have the same watch/instrument for all the sports that you can imagine and (which is incredibly amazing) also for diving. The only minus of Descent MK1 is lack of air integration.

    Reply #31 DC Rainmaker October 31, 2017 at 10:47 am #31 Yup, everything else is there, including maps that vary based on region. Think of this as a Fenix 5XU (where U stands for Underwater). Reply #37 & #38 Filip October 31, 2017 at 10:27 am #37 great source of info about this watch, have...

    It would be very useful if the Garmin Descent Mk1 had at least such settings as the Suunto D4i Novo (in freedive mode), and at least one user-configurable data screen.
