Epix (Gen 2)

For altitude acclimation or sleep monitoring, a Pulse Ox sensor² uses light beams at wrist to estimate how well body is absorbing oxygen.

The watch constantly samples heart rate³ and will alert if it stays too high or too low. It also helps gauge how hard work is during activities — even while swimming.

See how breathing is throughout the day, during sleep and during breathwork and yoga activities.

Log a 2-minute session to record key stats, including heart rate³, heart rate variability, Pulse Ox², respiration and stress. Then generate a report with those stats to share via the Garmin Connect™ app on compatible smartphone.

Heart rate variability is used to calculate stress level score.

Get a full breakdown of light, deep and REM sleep stages. View it all on a dedicated widget that includes sleep score and insights.

Optimize body’s energy reserves, using heart rate variability, stress, sleep and other data to gauge when to be active or when may need to rest.

Log daily fluid intake as a reminder to stay hydrated. An auto goal for hydration that adjusts based on how much sweat is during activities.

Use preloaded activity profiles for trail running, swimming, running, biking, hiking, rowing, skiing, golfing, surfing, indoor climbing and more.

This watch features easy-to-follow, animated cardio, strength, yoga and Pilates workouts can be viewed on the watch screen. Choose from preloaded animated workouts, or download more from the Garmin Connect^™ online community when paired with a compatible device.

Use this activity profile with different timers to track HIIT workouts, including AMRAP, EMOM, Tabata and custom. Set the number of rounds, work/rest intervals and more.

These free adaptive training plans feature guidance from expert coaches and adapt to the goals. Workouts sync right to watch from Garmin Connect.

Based on running history and overall fitness level, this feature provides an estimate of what pace could be for the distance needed to run. Trend data shows how training is having an impact over time.

A first-of-its-kind PacePro feature helps keep on pace with grade-adjusted guidance as running a course.

Train smarter with VO2 max, an indicator of how can perform. It adjusts for trail running and accounts for changes in performance that could be caused by heat or altitude.

View advanced training metrics that include estimates for running dynamics, VO2 max, recovery advisor and more.

Track and manage exertion — and help avoid overexerting at the start of run or bike.

For training guidance that takes into account fitness level, get daily run and ride recommendations based on current training load and training status.

After each workout, recovery time informs when to be ready for another hard workout. It even accounts for training intensity and factors such as stress, daily activity and sleep.

Track the details of every ride with mountain biking metrics plus specialized Grit^™ and Flow^™ measurements that rate trail difficulty and how smoothly descend, giving a score to beat next time.

Stay always informed. This preloaded profile helps distinguish between skiing and climbing. It shows metrics specific to either ascent or descent.

When paired with the HRM-Pro^™ chest strap (sold separately), the ski power metric helps measure the actual exercise load of cross-country workouts.

This watch works with the Surfline^® widget to give tides, wave height, wind and surf rating for the five nearest locations and also works with the Surfline Sessions^™ app to create videos of every wave ride in front of a Surfline camera.

Access multiple global navigation satellite systems (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo). With the Sapphire editions, get access to multiple frequencies sent by navigation satellites for improved position accuracy in areas where GNSS signals are reflected, weak or typically don't penetrate.

Navigate next trail with ABC sensors, including an altimeter for elevation data, barometer to monitor weather and 3-axis electronic compass.

This widget shows current elevation, acclimated elevation and correlated Pulse Ox², heart rate³ and respiration rate.

Use the ClimbPro ascent planner to see real-time information on current and upcoming climbs, including gradient, distance and elevation gain — as well as descents and flats.
