Garmin Instinct 3 50 mm, Solar Black with Charcoal Band

Rugged. Solar-Powered. Unlimited Battery Potential.

Instinct 3 is the rugged 50mm GPS smartwatch with a 1.1 inch display, built-in flashlight and unlimited battery life in smartwatch mode with solar charging, assuming all-day wear with 3 hours per day outside in 50,000 lux conditions. With bolted construction, a metal-reinforced bezel and scratch-resistant lens, it can take on your toughest adventures.

5x More Powerful Solar Charging

Featuring a brand new solar layer that increases solar capturing capability significantly compared to the Instinct 2 Solar, this watch removes the reddish tint of older solar layers and keeps the technology purely on the non-screen portions of the watch, despite a reduced surface area.

Built-In LED Flashlight, A First for Instinct Solar

The Instinct 3 brings a built-in flashlight to the Solar edition for the first time, giving you greater visibility and awareness during early morning hikes, late-night walks, or any low-light situation in the outdoors.

Engineered to Military Standards

It's engineered to MIL-STD-810 standards for thermal and shock resistance and is also 10 ATM water-rated, with a metal-reinforced bezel that adds an extra layer of structural toughness to the already rugged Instinct design.

Multi-Band GPS with SatIQ Technology

Navigate confidently with a 3-axis compass, barometric altimeter and multi-band GPS with SatIQ technology, which delivers superior positioning while also optimising battery life, a notable upgrade brought across the entire Instinct 3 lineup.

24/7 Health and Wellness Tracking

Stay connected to your body with heart rate tracking, advanced sleep monitoring, Pulse Ox and more, alongside newly added features like Nap Detection and Sleep Coach that weren't available on the previous Instinct generation.

Garmin Pay and Smart Notifications

Leave your cash and cards at home; Garmin Pay contactless payments let you pay for purchases on the go and breeze through select transit systems, while smart notifications and Connect IQ Store compatibility let you customise the watch when paired with your smartphone.

Safety Features Built for the Outdoors

Includes incident detection during select activities and Assistance, both of which call or send a message with your live location to emergency contacts when paired with your smartphone, giving you an added layer of safety on solo adventures.

Training Load Focus and Multisport Auto Transition

New to the Instinct 3 lineup, Training Load Focus, Training Load Ratio, and Multisport/Triathlon Auto Transition help structured athletes get more out of their training data than any previous Instinct model offered.
