Garmin said on the 24th it will launch a limited-edition diving watch, the Descent G2 Barrel Deep Blue Edition, in partnership with watersports brand Barrel.
The new product features a dedicated Wave watch face that graphically expresses the motion of waves. The watch band is designed in an azure color inspired by the sea, which deepens as the depth increases.
The Descent G2 combines diving functions with the utility of a smartwatch. Its 1.2-inch touch AMOLED display makes it easy to check key data underwater. It boosts durability with a sapphire lens, a 10ATM (100m) diving-rated case, and leakproof buttons. The housing, bezel, and buttons use material made entirely from recycled ocean plastic.
The limited-edition package includes the Descent G2, a swim cap with both companies' logos, and a 40% discount coupon for Barrel neoprene products. The price is 1.039 million won.
Sales will start first at the Barrel online mall and the Seongsu flagship store on the 24th, and expand to the Garmin Korea online mall, the Naver brand store, and Garmin brand shops nationwide on the 31st.
