Lead the charge

Navigate the outdoors with superior positioning accuracy, thanks to multi-band GPS with SatIQ technology plus built-in sensors for the 3-axis compass, gyroscope and barometric altimeter.

Applied Ballistics solver

The preloaded Applied Ballistics solver gives you access to aiming solutions for long-range shooting in the field.

Recreational diving

With a 40-meter dive rating, you’re ready to go to greater depths than ever with support for scuba and apnea dive activities.

Built-in flashlight

To help guide your way in low-light conditions, a built-in multicolor LED flashlight provides quick access to a bright, steady beam in either green or white light. In NVG mode, white is disabled, and the green flashlight becomes dimmable.

Night vision capability

Whether viewed under NODs or operating in the dark, NVG mode allows for stealthy operation with controls to further dim brightness and black out the display to reduce detectability.

Stealth mode

While keeping the watch operational, stealth mode stops storing and sharing your GPS position and disables wireless connectivity and communication.

Access aviation weather, including NEXRAD radar, METARs and TAFs, to see winds, visibility, barometric pressure and more1.
