Overview

What it does well
- Real dive credentials. 150-meter depth rating, 20ATM and sonar communication between watches underwater: features normally found on dedicated dive instruments.
- The toughest sealing here. 20ATM + IP68 + IP69 together.
- Expedition, golf and trail modes on top of the usual sport tracking, with dual-band GNSS and offline maps.
- Flagship hardware: 1.5-inch LTPO AMOLED at 3,500 nits, titanium, sapphire, ECG, HRV, SpO2 and temperature sensing.

- The EUR 601 price is retailer-sourced (marked approximate in our data); availability and official local pricing vary by market.
