Garmin Instinct 2X Solar Tactical Edition XL - GPS watch, black

The Instinct 2X Solar Tactical Edition is a rugged Garmin sports watch in XL size, in a tactical version with a solar panel that recharges the battery. The case is made of resin, and the strap is made of black silicone rubber.

Tactical features and flashlight

The built-in LED flashlight has adjustable intensity, a strobe mode and a red safety light mode, useful after dark without dazzling your eyes. The watch also supports the Applied Ballistics ballistic calculator, available through the Garmin AB Synapse app - this feature requires an additional, paid unlock.

Navigation and health

The watch supports multi-band GNSS reception, which improves positioning accuracy in difficult terrain. A morning report summarizes sleep quality, recovery level and heart rate variability (HRV) status, together with a weather forecast and training suggestions for the day.

Display, battery and durability

The display has a resolution of 176 x 176 pixels and a maximum brightness of up to 500 nits. The lithium-ion battery, supported by the solar panel, lasts up to 40 days in smartwatch mode or up to 60 hours in GPS mode. The case is water resistant to a depth of 100 meters. Thanks to Garmin Pay, the watch also supports contactless payments.
