Garmin Instinct 2 Solar

Ideal for pursuing your many sport passions and showcasing a trendy style, the Garmin Instinct 2 Solar watch quickly becomes an essential. Versatile and robust, it accompanies your every desire.

The Elevate Gen 4 heart rate monitor tracks your heart rate to inform you about the intensity of your sessions and your stress levels. A recovery manager and the Body Battery are present to optimize your energy expenditure. The efforts made during your days and the quality of your sleep are analyzed to indicate the best times for training or rest.

Keep track of your achievements and visualize your results thanks to the directly integrated activities such as running, cycling, or swimming. Essential for your outdoor adventures, an altimeter, a barometer, and a compass provide vital information.

Three satellite navigation systems are included for unmatched precision, even in remote environments. Create and share your routes and take advantage of recommendations from other explorers. Safety features allow you to contact your loved ones if an incident is detected, and TracBack guides you back to your starting point.

Simplify your life and easily make contactless purchases with Garmin Pay. You won?t miss any notifications regarding your SMS, emails, and all your alerts. Water-resistant up to 100 meters, your new ally stays by your side underwater and proves resistant to extreme temperatures and shocks.

The Power Glass lens paves the way for solar charging for exceptional autonomy. Expect 48 hours with active GPS and potentially unlimited battery life for smartwatch and Expedition modes with strong sunlight exposure.
