Garmin Quatix 7X—Solar Edition
Description and Application: With Quatix 7X—Solar Edition, the multisport GPS smartwatch with solar charging, you’ll get all the features you need on your boat and the ones you want off it. Do more. Charge less. Solar charging yields up to 37 days of battery life in smartwatch mode. Get a battery boost from the sunlight, so you can go longer between charges. When you own a boat, you want to stay connected. Quatix 7 is your answer. Touch or tap, it’s up to you. Use traditional buttons or the new touchscreen interface. No matter where you go, know where you are with coastal charts and inland maps. Off the grid or at your local spot, text messages and smart notifications will be able to find you.
Staff Perspective: There is so much that can be accomplished with this smartwatch, and who would have thought that there are indeed fishing and fitness applications that you’ll find very useful—like dropping a waypoint while using LakeVÜ G3 Maps. And the thing charges by being in the sun—talk about cool. There are a number of bands to choose from and two face sizes: 47mm and 51mm. I like that while providing countless useful applications, it also looks good while serving you well. This is a cool watch all anglers ought to be outfitted with.
Cost: $999.99
