The Descent Mk2S GPS Diving Smartwatch features multiple modes as well as multisport training and smart features. It offers multiple dive modes for single and multiple gas dives (including nitrox and trimix), gauge, apnea, apnea hunt and closed-circuit rebreather.
Customizable Dive Modes
Add additional screens for each dive mode that features the fields you want to see.
Surface Multi-GNSS
Track your entry and exit points with advanced satellite connectivity.
Dive Log
Store and review data for up to 200 dives — and share via the Garmin Dive app.
Compatible With Inreach
Pair with inReach satellite communicators and the inReach dive case (each sold separately).
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 specialized 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-adjusted VO2 max, recovery advisor and more.
Trail Run VO2 Max
Trail run VO2 max tracks your cardiovascular fitness level and adjusts based on trail conditions.
Recovery Advisor
Giving your body time to recover between training sessions is crucial. After each workout, the built-in recovery advisor will let you know how long to rest before another big effort.
Daily Suggested Workouts
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
Easily follow animated workouts for cardio, strength, yoga and Pilates. View workouts right on your watch screen.
Wrist-Based Heart Rate
Optical heart rate 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 Ox 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 stages as well as Pulse Ox and respiration data. View it all on a dedicated widget that includes your stress score and other insights.
Women’s Health Tracking
Use the Garmin Connect app to track your menstrual cycle or pregnancy. Log symptoms, get exercise and nutrition education, and more. See details on your wrist by downloading the Menstrual Cycle Tracking widget and Pregnancy Tracking app from the Connect IQ Store.
Multi-GNSS Support
Access multiple global navigation systems (GPS, GLONASS, and Galileo) to track in more challenging environments than GPS alone.
