It is available in two case sizes, 45 mm and 50 mm, and offers two display options: a vibrant AMOLED or a sunlight-readable MIP display, with some models incorporating a solar-charging lens for extended power. This device is built to military standards for thermal, shock, and water resistance (10 ATM). Navigation capabilities include a 3-axis compass, barometric altimeter, and multi-band GPS with SatIQ™ technology ensuring accurate positioning while optimizing battery life. For tactical users, it provides dedicated features like stealth mode which halts GPS data storage and wireless communication, jumpmaster activity for high-altitude jumps, and a rucking activity to track loaded movements. A built-in LED flashlight offers illumination in either green or white light. Additionally, it features a preloaded Applied Ballistics® solver for precise long-range shooting calculations (one-time unlock fee required), and a kill switch to wipe all user data for security. Health and wellness monitoring is integrated, along with smart notifications and compatibility with the Connect IQ™ Store. Select models benefit from solar charging, achieving extended or unlimited battery life in smartwatch mode. The watch also supports night vision devices with a dedicated NVG mode and allows for setting and saving projected waypoints. It can display dual grid coordinates for enhanced situational awareness and is available through authorized distributors like Atomic Defense. It ships with a charging/data cable and documentation.
