New from Garmin is the Tactix Delta Solar smartwatch with Ballistics tactical GPS capabilities. The watch features a solar charging lens and customizable Power Manager modes, allowing the Tactix Delta solar to use the power of the sun to remain mission-ready for weeks. Built to the MIL-STD-810 military standard, the Tactix Delta Solar Edition uses solar charging to extend to the battery life of the watch to up to 21 days indoors and up to 24 days with sufficient sun exposure in smartwatch mode.

The watch has a rugged, sophisticated look and a design to match. It features an always-on 1.4 inch display, scratch-resistant sapphire lens, black DLC-coated steel bezel, black PVD-coated steel rear cover and an all-new military-inspired black tactical nylon QuickFit band with reinforced stitching and exposed black metal hardware. The watch has specialized tactical features such as mapping, music, advanced training and the same smartwatch features from the fenix 6 family, making it perfect for the demands of field-use yet sophisticated enough for everyday wear.

The Tactix Delta Solar Edition with Ballistics incorporates Applied Ballistics Elite software to calculate aiming solutions for long-range shooting. This watch also integrates with selected SIG Sauer Ballistic Data Xchange (BDX) and Terrapin X laser rangefinders for enhanced ballistic information, available right on your wrist.
