Meet the Garmin Descent X10: your next dive starts here

There’s a moment on every good dive when the surface feels a long way away and the reef takes over. Your dive data should be easy to check, so you can get back to enjoying the view. That’s where the Garmin Descent™ X10 comes in: a dedicated dive computer with a big, clear display and the essentials for your underwater adventures.

What makes it worth a look

A practical dive companion for reef weekends, freediving sessions and the logbook stories that follow.

Big screen. Clear information. The 2.1″ monochrome MIP display puts large, easy-to-read text front and centre. A depth- or button-activated backlight helps keep your dive information visible.
Up to 50 hours in dive mode A rechargeable battery delivers up to 50 hours in dive mode and up to six months in standby, depending on settings and use.
Three dive profiles Choose single-gas scuba, apnea or gauge to suit your session. Scuba mode supports air and nitrox mixes with 21–40% oxygen.
Keep the story in your logbook Wirelessly upload your dive logs to the Garmin Dive™ app after your dive. Share dives, tag locations and track gear usage from your compatible paired phone.

Pick your profile. Plan your next dive.

The X10 keeps the choice straightforward, with three profiles covering different ways to spend time underwater.

Single-gas scuba

For scuba sessions using air or nitrox. View depth, dive time and no-decompression information on customisable data screens.

Apnea

A dedicated profile for freediving sessions, with depth and time information available at a glance.

Gauge

For divers who need depth and time information in gauge mode, with dive planning and decompression managed separately.

Get to know NDL Aware™

The X10’s NDL Aware depth metrics show in real time how specific changes in depth could affect your no-decompression limit. It’s another way to understand the numbers on your screen as your dive develops.

A splash of colour. Extra protection.

Your dive computer can have a bit of personality, too. Replaceable bezel guards let you customise the X10’s look and help protect the device. Choose Black, Amp Yellow, Aqua or Iris Purple — all sold separately.

Built around dive days

The included hinged silicone band fits over wetsuits, while audible and vibration alerts help draw your attention to key dive information. Prefer your buttons at the top? Flip-screen mode lets you change the orientation.

The X10 also includes backup and rental support modes, plus setup sharing across compatible Descent dive computers. For dive schools, rental mode simplifies resetting device configurations between divers.
