    Product Description

    Why just carry out the mission? Own it with Instinct® 2 Solar – Tactical Edition. This rugged GPS smartwatch is built to U.S. military standard (MIL-STD-810), is water-rated to 100 meters and features solar charging, which gives you unlimited battery life in smartwatch mode (assuming all-day wear with 3 hours per day outside in 50,000 lux conditions). Dedicated tactical features, such as night vision goggle compatibility, waypoint projection and dual-position GPS format, keep you mission ready. Stealth mode lets you go dark by disabling wireless communication and data sharing. Multiple global navigation satellite systems (GPS, GLONASS and Galileo) help you track in more challenging environments than with GPS alone. All-day health monitoring lets you keep track of your general wellness — helping you to stay ready for anything (this device is intended to give an estimation of your activity and metrics; it is not a medical device).

    Awesome watch!
    5 Stars
    Awesome watch!
    I have had the watch for 2 weeks now with zero complaints. It does everything I need in a watch and then some. It does a great job of monitoring heart rate and counting steps, and lots of other things I am still learning, like HRV and pulse ox. There are plenty of faces to choose from, and they are all customizable, so that I can have just the data I want on there. For example, the one I am using shows me time, date, weather, battery, heart rate, and steps. The watch itself is very easy to operate, and very easy to see, indoors or outside in sunlight. Battery life is outstanding. Have not charged it since it's initial charging 2 weeks ago, and it shows still 9 days left, and that is with using GPS on average 45 minutes a day while recording my afternoon walk, and recording my morning workout as well (non-GPS workout). and the app is really great! Very easy to use, and find the information I want to see. I can find connections and challanges from the app, and best of all, I don't have to pay for a premium membership (Like some othe fitness apps) to use all of the features. Garmin figures that owning their products is enough, and hey do not nickle and dime you to death. Thank you Garmin! This is my first Garmin, and I believe I will probbaly be a Garmin guy from now on.
