Aviator (Gen 2) Watch 010-02648-01

The Watch

A master of extreme-condition watchmaking, Garmin has carved out a top spot among the world's finest watchmakers. True to its adventurer spirit, the American brand now delivers its take on the modern smartwatch: the MARQ Aviator Gen 2 010-02648-01, designed for pilots and aviation enthusiasts. It presents itself in an elegant round case crafted entirely from grade 5 titanium - a lightweight, corrosion-resistant, hypoallergenic, acid-resistant, and antimagnetic material that was a natural choice for this timepiece. Its 46mm diameter (crown excluded) provides an expansive dial opening, making information easy to read at a glance. The case measures 15mm thick. It features a ceramic bezel with a 24-hour scale. The watch's flanks house a total of 5 pushers for all adjustments. The caseback is firmly secured by 4 screws, where the heart rate sensor is also visible.

The Dial

To take full advantage of everything this technological marvel has to offer, this watch features an Amoled touchscreen dial with a generous 30.40mm diameter opening. It delivers an impressive resolution of 390 x 390 pixels. The always-on display keeps information at your fingertips at all times - without compromising battery life.

The Strap

To keep up with you in any condition, this model comes with two straps featuring a micro-adjustment system for a perfect fit.

The first is a robust titanium bracelet reinforced with 3 links. The finishing is equally impressive, with alternating polished and brushed facets. A sturdy deployant clasp engraved with the brand name keeps it securely in place.

The second strap is crafted in black silicone. It brings a sporty yet refined look with an exceptionally comfortable feel on the wrist. A pin buckle serves as the clasp.

Water Resistance

With 100-meter water resistance - that's 10 ATM in watchmaking terms - this bold-looking timepiece handles everything from black-tie events to water activities. Wear it in the shower, the bath, or even for a vigorous swim. That said, our team of watch experts wants to be clear: this model is not designed for scuba diving (freediving or tank diving) or high-pressure water jets. Remember: shower, bath, and swimming only - and never operate the pushers or crown while submerged.
