Description

Introducing the Garmin Tactix 8 Solar Smart Watch - 51mm, Applied Ballistics Elite Solver. A top-tier tactical GPS smartwatch designed to endure and perform under demanding conditions. Featuring a bright 1.4-inch solar charged display, a robust titanium bezel, and a scratch-resistant Power Sapphire lens, this device meets U.S. military standards for thermal, shock, and water resistance. This rugged construction, combined with its advanced tactical features, makes it an ideal tool for users requiring high levels of durability and functionality in challenging environments. The enhanced graphical interface provides clear and accessible information, ensuring that users can quickly and easily access the data they need.

Designed for those in command, the Tactix 8 Solar includes dedicated tactical features like a jumpmaster activity, waypoint projection, dual-position GPS format, stealth mode, and a kill switch. It supports compatibility with night vision goggles and a dedicated rucking activity profile, providing essential tools for a range of tactical operations. The preloaded Applied Ballistics Elite solver offers advanced aiming solutions for long-range shooting, enhancing its capabilities for users in the field. The built-in multicolour LED flashlight offers a bright and steady beam in white or green, and the NVG mode enables stealth operation by dimming the display and reducing detectability. Stealth mode allows users to maintain the operational capabilities of the watch while stopping the storage and sharing of GPS position and disabling wireless connectivity.

The device supports recreational diving with a 40-meter dive rating and offers support for scuba and apnoea activities. Navigation is further enhanced through features like projected waypoints, direct-to navigation using the aeronautical database, and access to weather reports, including NEXRAD radar and METARs.
