In addition to in-flight functionality, D2 Bravo incorporates versatile activity tracking features and multi-sport functions while supporting Smartphone connectivity. With uncompromising details such as a stainless steel bezel and domed sapphire lens, D2 Bravo combines GPS and wearable technology that Garmin is known for and offers a sophisticated new form factor suitable for pilots and aviation enthusiasts alike.
Highlights:
- Thinner, lighter, more evolved GPS pilot watch design
- Features METAR screen for the latest aviation weather information
- Dedicated Direct-to and Nearest buttons enabled by a worldwide airport database
- Scratch-resistant optical sapphire lens and crisp color display
- Baro-adjustable altimeter, HSI, Zulu/UTC time reference, various timers and alerts plus wireless control for VIRB® cameras
High Quality Materials for a Luxury Look and Feel
D2 Bravo features a sapphire lens, complete with a protective stainless steel bezel and glass fiber reinforced housing, offering a sophisticated look that is rugged enough for everyday wear. The new omni-directional stainless steel EXO™ antenna contributes to a slimmer design and when paired with improved GPS technology, provides an even faster GPS fix and accurate position than GPS alone. D2 Bravo boasts a sunlight-readable, high-resolution color display with an LED backlight so data is easily visible in any light. Featuring a longer battery life than its predecessor, D2 Bravo can operate up to six weeks in watch mode and 20 hours in GPS mode.
Smart Phone Connectivity and Alerting Capability
Innovative features within D2 Bravo go further to provide imperative alerts and beneficial weather information. When paired with a compatible smartphone, aviation routine weather reports (METARs) are displayed on the face of D2 Bravo in plain language and are color-coded to indicate visual or instrument meteorological conditions (IMC), giving pilots convenient access to the most up-to-date weather information at a glance. Valuable in pressurized cabins as a back-up cabin pressure monitor and within unpressurized aircraft as a helpful reminder to use oxygen, D2 Bravo uses the built-in altimeter to provide preset altitude alerts, which remind pilots when to use supplemental oxygen at critical altitudes where oxygen may be required. D2 Bravo provides vibrating alerts in 30¬minute intervals to notify the pilot when cabin pressure is at or above 12,500 feet.
Smartphone connectivity is available with D2 Bravo, allowing customers to receive email, text, weather and additional notifications, such as alerts from Garmin Pilot™. This full-featured aviation application available for iOS and Android operating systems, provides pilots with a comprehensive worldwide navigation database. D2 Bravo also supports hundreds of additional applications available through Garmin Connect.
A True Aviator’s Watch
Designed with pilots in mind, a premium brown leather band gives D2 Bravo a bold stylish look suitable for an active lifestyle both inside and outside of the cockpit. D2 Bravo incorporates exclusive direct-to and nearest functions, complete with a worldwide airport database and support for up to 18 languages to meet the needs of pilots around the globe. Pilots can quickly navigate direct-to airports and create Mark on Target waypoints for easy navigation to customized locations. Similar to Garmin portables, customizable data fields display GPS ground speed, GPS track, distance, altitude, estimated time enroute, bearing, glide ratio and more.

More Than Just GPS
Pilots can navigate with confidence using D2 Bravo, which offers a built-in GPS, highly accurate altimeter with an adjustable barometric setting, compass with an HSI and moving map display. Simultaneous display of date and Zulu/UTC time provides pilots with an at a glance view of important information on the analog face of D2 Bravo. Information such as speed, altitude and time enroute are recorded and stored for each flight, so pilots can easily reference recent flight information all within the watch. D2 Bravo also provides altitude alerting to notify pilots when they reach or leave a preselected altitude, helping to ensure the desired altitude is maintained in-flight. Additionally, D2 Bravo features the option to set up vibrating alerts as a reminder to perform time-sensitive operations such as switching fuel tanks while in-flight. D2 Bravo enriches every flying experience by integrating with select Garmin products while in-flight or on the ground. D2 Bravo can remotely control VIRB® Elite and VIRB X so customers can start and stop video, view elapsed time for active video recording and capture high quality still photos – even when video recording is active.
Keep an Eye on the Weather with METARs Reports
For at-a-glance updates on the weather for your departure airport or your destination — the D2 Bravo works wirelessly with your compatible smartphone¹ to bring you a screenful of current meteorological (METARs) information: winds, visibility, precipitation, cloud cover and heights, temperature, dew point, barometric pressure, etc.— all the vital measurements you need for smart pre-flight decision making.
Customizable Displays and Timers
To aid in situational awareness, you can assign customizable data fields to display GPS groundspeed, GPS track, distance from waypoints/airports, estimated time enroute, bearing, glide ratio and other useful flight parameters. There’s also a handy altitude alerting feature that can be set to notify you when reaching or leaving a preselected altitude. The watch can show you local time and Zulu/UTC time. And you can select the stopwatch function for timing approaches or flight legs. The baro-based O2 Altitude alert feature will automatically notify you when you’ve reached an altitude where supplemental oxygen is required. Plus, various other timer functions with vibrating alerts can be set to remind you when it’s time to switch fuel tanks or perform other time-critical tasks.

- Flew with watch on cross country flight. It worked as expected. Received weather before atis would come in. Will work for true and quick back up.
- Pros: Appearance, fit and performance great.
- Cons: Haven't gotten Garmin express to change face yet.
- This is a very high quality watch! It looks like your everyday watch, which is good to not get the wrong attention. It is built very durable, easy to use buttons, display is very clear and easily readable even in bright sun. Purchased for a newly licenced pilot.
- Pros: Durable, clear screen, not flashy.
- Cons: Does not come with set up instructions, must get online.
- Well made. The buttons are confusing. Did not have very good online instructions.
- Pros: Looks great in picturesAdds more functions than D-2
- Cons: Poor functionalityToo big for small wrists.Expensive
- I had the D2 Pilot watch- this blows that one out of the water. I am a watch tech geek and I have had Suunto, Garmin Fenix, Garmin Tactix, and the D2 Pilot watch. This watch is absolutely outstanding and worth the price of purchase. It does seamless navigation, but in addition it does: fitness at the touch of a button (no extra devices to wear), does running, biking, hiking, swimming, diving, etc.. It will sync to your phone and alert you with who is calling, you can read your texts, control your music, read weather, METARs, calendars, notifications, etc.. The face is in color and customizable by color and what information you want shown and in what format you like it. Thus far there are no complaints, only exceeded expectations with this watch. With running all of this in the background all day the battery has hardly changed at all- and the Garmin connect app that runs all of this did not drain my phone either. So if you want a device that gives you aviation navigation to match or beat what is in your aircraft, gives you fitness info, allows you to create your own workouts for running, biking, etc. and record your workouts, analyzes sleep cycles (and knows when asleep to stop the notifications), and it allows you to check your phone less as the information will buzz on your wrist if you have any new data- this is the watch. Again, I love tech, and this is WELL DONE tech. Also- the watch itself is significantly LIGHTER than the D2 pilot and far easier to read in all light conditions. If you want a functional watch- you have it all in one here.
- Pros: All in One device: Nav, fitness, tracking, bluetooth, etc.
- Cons: The price point may make it difficult for some people to justify.
