Post by: Redaktion on March 04, 2022, 14:41:48
Garmin has unveiled the Descent G1 and Descent G1 Solar aimed at divers. However, the pair should work just as well as regular smartwatches thanks to their support for Garmin's suite of exercise modes, its Connect IQ Store and Garmin Pay. The Garmin Descent G1 series starts at US$549.99 and is available in four colours.

10 ATM isnt exactly divers watch, last time I checked you could snorkel with it and swim in pool.
20 ATM was minimum where one could position it as divers watch and 30 ATM the preferred.

The author is not entirely  correct, this watch is not rated at  10 ATM, it is Dive rated to 100 meters.
