Received this as a Christmas Gift and used this on our voyage to Charleston. Connected flawlessly with my triple marine screens!

There’s a lot to like, but where have all the sail

I got this to replace a Quatix 7. The screen is better, the battery life is really good, but selecting various modes is more complex and all the sailing functions seem to have been replaced by diving functions.
As a sailor who doesn’t dive it’s somewhat of a disappointment.

Great hardware and build quality but…

I finally grew tired of dealing with the software. I love Garmin products but this just isn’t in my favorite list.

Great features but still lacking flexibility.

I bought it 3 months ago and this is the second watch. The first one stopped working and was replaced by Garmin.
Not as intuitive as IWatch. Garmin wins due to navegation features or those of us with boats.
I am not a golfer but I cannot remove golf and golf maps from my garmin!
Would I recommend? Only if you own a boat. I am a bike enthusiast and I prefer Apple over this one.
Too thick and bulky
Expensive for what it does.
Hopefully in a years term Garmin will come up with a better watch. Tip for Garmin, please use AI to help design a better watch and to add AI features on it.

I’m enjoying the new features and interaction with the quatix 8 compared to my quatix 6 solar

Generous gift
on May 5, 2026
Posted by: Gift
This watch was a generous gift from a client. I was letting them know that it would be a great watch for a yacht owner friend. In turn, they gave me one for appreciation and a birthday gift. I’ve had it for about a month now. Previously, I had an Apple Watch. I like the functionality of it But I didn't love that I had to charge it so often . As a boat captain sometimes I'm on the water for more than 12 hours And my watch wouldn't last one whole shift. With the features of this watch obviously for what I do is amazing plus the long battery life and all the other features es That Garmin connects to with vessels is a plus I'm really enjoying this watch .
