Thanks Bob. As much as I love my titanium MK2I, I may have to upgrade to the MK3i for the AMOLED display
Having issues with my mk3i wait out
I heard that from more than one Mk2i owner..
I ordered mine last week, can’t wait!
Which size? 51mm? I dont know which choose 😂
@@victorquinones8723 Only the 51mm has the light. Bob C
I chose the 51mm because of the light and my older eyes. @@victorquinones8723
So glad I didn’t buy the MK2 a few weeks ago
Yep, I was tempted when they offered the rebate!
Hi Bob, 3 questions for the future reviews: 1) How many independent depth alarms we can set during freediving with MK3 43mm? (I freedive to approx -80m and so need at least 4 independent alarms). 2) Is it possible to use stop-watch in freediving mode (to control how long my buddy is down there)? 3) Is there any summary of locations covered in "Dive view maps"? Many thanks :)
before i sell my mk2i, isnt the mk3 screen smaller than the mk2i? thanks bob!
The Mk3i is called a 51mm unit and there is the Mk3i 43mm unit, no longer is there a Mk2s. Thee 43mm does not have the light the 51mm. I have a Mk3i 51mm coming to do some real comparisons with the Mkk2i.
It wouldbe nice to see the 43mm beside 51mm on someone's arm to judge the size difference, especially the thickness

@@DiversSupplyYT thanks. Been looking everywhere!
@@pan0ptica We've got them..
The watch the interviewer is wearing 😂
Do you folks know what that watch is that I'm wearing ?? Bob C
@@DiversSupplyYT looks like Seiko
@@DiversSupplyYT doxa
Still looking to find out why Garmin didn’t choose to go with solar on the Descent Mk3s like every other Garmin model update. Seems like a step down to me. I get the solar isn’t a huge increase to battery boost…
I'd think the power vs space requirement be a factor and maybe the screen type might keep that from happening..
@@DiversSupplyYT ty for the reply… guess I’d rather kept MIPS and got solar over AMOLED. Having a Mk2i… the flashlight and solar was the only thing I felt I was missing from the Garmin lineup.
and the touch screen! @@jasonbocek
Just bought MK2I less than 2 months and mk3 came out……
No worries the Mk2i is still a killer of a Dive Computer and multi function unit. Bob C
I can hear the Garmin Sonar transmitters. Underwater it's terrible
what does it sound like?
How does this compare with Rolex Submariner and/or Omega Seamaster 300?
I assume it is totally different concept.
Hey Someone ! Yes those pieces are Dive Watches and the Mk3i is a Multi-function unit. Yes it is a dive watch, dive computer, multi-activity tracker like biking, walking, swimming, and square-dancing.. (just kidding about that one).
It tracks sleep and so much more.
@@DiversSupplyYT Thanks! 😉👍
DLC 51mm ... i go big because I need the real estate and I already dive with magnifiers ( bi focal) so smaller is STUPIDER for me ... the reason I did not buy a MK2i for ( idiot ) was the Super garbage can Trash super Scratch surface ... I did get a standard Mk2... STAINLESS... 52MM because I liked having a watch I could wear... unlike a CASIO GSHOCK for 1600.00 black CLOWN watch... now with the MK3.... I can get stainless sin the girl sized 43mm ... OR a MK3i in GHETTO boi Bronze.... because ( I have seen the SUPER CLOWN SCRATCH and CHIP DLC plating BS on the MK2 )
OK and all that ! Regards Bob C
