Garmin Is NOT the Best Value Freediving Watch

If you're new to freediving or upgrading from your first watch, this is the video you’ve been waiting for.

I'm comparing the Suunto D4, Garmin Descent MK3i, and Atmos Mission 2—and making a strong case for why the Atmos is the best bang-for-your-buck freediving computer on the market right now.

Yes, the Garmin does everything under the sun (and moon), but at nearly a quarter of the price, the Atmos delivers nearly the same amount of features, plus an additional feature Garmin does not have.
