Merry Christmas Eve guys. Wanted to have a good video for you guys today that wasn’t about the world drama. 🇺🇸🇺🇸. I also thought something to show the wife for a last minute Christmas gift for yourself. 😂😂. Thanks for watching and hope you guys have a great day with your family.
Can you make a weapon light for 1911s just like how you make glock weapons lights. I am just asking because I do not what to buy a surefire light and have my money going to anti 2A politicians. Also i am not a glock guy i thank glock just feel like a toy gun. That's why I like 1911s over glocks.
Garmin Tactix Delta also has this smart watch with a ballistics calculator for anyone who may benefit in long range shooting. It is a jump in price but a very nice option!
I've worked in Naval Aviation for some time and have had the tactix delta solar with me since it released last year, amazing watch, put it through its paces and its incredibly durable though I've managed to scratch the bezel and back up quite a bit. Battery life is amazing, viewablility with the MIP transflective display is excellent outdoors but not so much indoors and the features to this watch are endless, still finding new things over a year into owning this device, truly the best watch for the military, LEO, survivalist worlds. And the kill switch takes about 3 1/2 minutes to fully reset the device but a note is a data recovery specialist may be able to recover any lost data as long as it hadn't been overwritten.
as a precautionary side note DO NOT CHARGE IT UNTIL ITS LESS THAN 50% it will kill your battery early ask me how i know. also the silicone bands don't last more than a year the titanium one is a great replacement for it from my experience.
@@b4ds33d are you stuck in time where nickel-cadmium batteries with memory effect are still in use? Or you are implying that modern Garmin watches use those instead of lithium ones?
Very nice. I converged on getting the gshock GWG2000, although less featured, its a standalone w solar that meets my needs. Nice to see they're improving battery life. Thanks for sharing and Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas brother! Hope ya'll have an amazing and safe time with all your family. Cherish this Christmas even more, it could be our last time we can celebrate it with our society intact the way it currently is. GOD BLESS.
Not being a tech savvy kind of guy, this video opened my eyes to a new world of tech! I never knew something like this existed. Yeah, I lead a rather sheltered life here in rural Minnesota. We don't even have internet here! Thank goodness for 4G coverage or I'd be totally isolated! It looks like something that would take some time to learn, but it all seems useful. Just when you thought you had it all...
If you have contact with Garmin, one thing I would like to see, being a single father of an autistic child, is to be able to track a Garmin watch with a Garmin Rino 750. But also communicate with the watch and a Garmin radio. Make it so you can set radio and watch to track only that watch or up to 5.
I’ve been through 4 watches this calendar year and 6 in the last 16 months. I’m a tactical athlete (wannabe ) and I train very rough. Samsung, 3 Fitbit and 3 Chinese they all last about the same none has made it past 4 months.
The Garmin instinct original would be cheap enough to try it out, lots of good smart features still. Seen some people in reviews just toss them against rocks for fun.
I remember the hunk of plastic on my wrist called the g shock back in the day. It took one day in the field to stop working. I leave all electronics at home now.
One thing I hate about smartwatches and digital watches is that they can be easily effected by an EMP or any form of electronic warfare so if I was in the military I would wear the garmin tactix delta and a Rolex or seiko with a automatic movement just in case
Yeah, I usually prefer wearing a Rolex because it CAN be used in a pinch, to get out of a jam, because they’re universally known for their value. Problem is, in some 3rd world countries where I work, wearing a Rolex actually draws WAY too much attention and very negative attention. For example, I was recently working in Argentina and Uruguay and there are loads of criminal groups actively searching for people wearing Rolex watches and they target you for them - NOT something I want in my work. I want to blend in and fit in. Even my Garmin watch can have more of a “tactical” appearance than I like to wear. Looking like an operator is NOT advantageous unless you are ACTUALLY utilizing/needing the features in a watch line that. I love my Applied Balistics features watch for shooting but it’s not a great option if you’re working outside the US and don’t want to be noticed. These days, I wear a Luminox watch or a Hamilton field watch when I’m in 2nd and 3rd world countries. They don’t draw unwanted attention and are plenty of value for emergency trades. Rolex is for Europe, Saudi, UAE, Singapore, Japan, etc. Garmin is for training purposes. JMO
When I was like 10 or 11 or so I really wanted a Apple Watch so I called my cousin up and said I wanted a Apple Watch and how to convince my mom to get me one but long story short he is in the navy and told me that digital or analog watches were better and that they were more durable and lasted longer and told me to get a g shock so I got a g shock and absolutely loved it and now I have a garmin instinct solar which is almost as durable as a g shock and it’s not like a Apple Watch where it always needs a phone or phone tower it can basically work on its own
The best tactical watch....is the one that you know how to use. Functions without a computer and offers reasonable ease of use. One thats proven in combat. I've gotta try that thing.
This is above my "boomer" tech level of "intuitive" understanding. That being said. I have a few questions. How does it "see" the GPS satellites? Is the antenna in the watch? Is it connected to the cellular phone network? 4G, or worse, 5G? Are there any built in Comms? Is the watch approved for use by AD military personnel. I think the Apple Watch activity info was revealing the PT tracks and locations of deployed AD several years ago. I believe it was banned? I don't know if it was hacked or considered a "feature" by the Chinese military? Probably stupid questions but my enquiring mind wants to know. Can real time blood glucose be added to it to track during PT? Body temp? HR? EKG? EEG?
There is a GPS receiver (no transmission) with antenna in the watch. No connection with 4G or 5G directly, but does communicate through your phone via Bluetooth. There’s also built in Wi-Fi and ANT+ support. I can’t say what the military stance on it is, but I do know they do issue some harm in watches. It does not do glucose levels, body temperature or EEG/EKG. It does have an HR sensor with the ability to record HRV, which allows it to provide some very handy biometrics like “body battery”, recovery, sleep ratings, stress, etc. it also has an SpO2 sensor. All sensors are configurable. It really is a great watch.
These watches are allowed for active duty, but any devices that utilize Bluetooth, GPS, or data services (so cell phones, GPS devices, this Garmin watch, and similar smart watches) are NOT authorized in classified environments/some team/hq rooms. For 90% of the military, it’s allowed.
👍👍 Been using the samsung galaxy 46 watch for over a year, after waiting a year after they came out. Is my first smartwatch. Wish I would have gotten it sooner. Watch mode only can last 40 days on a charge. Otherwise it last a week in full smart mode. Also samsung bezel rotates which is a bonus. Its not a survival or tacticool watch, but it does everything for my needs and more. If and when i decide on a new watch, the garmin may be runner up.
8.15 What wachface is this one? I wonder what Garmin will release for TAC in new Fenix 7 line. I hope they integrate diving functionality into new TAC version. Like Tactix Echo Diver or so.....
Buddy it seems it does not have weather Data if u chose other watch faces? I've tried numerous times it's also solar watch which should be using GPS. I turned on location but I leave my phone at home any thoughts?
Merry Blessed Christmas to You and your family. Very interesting watch this would have a perfect watch for my Dad to have gave him for Christmas if was still here he passed away in 2016. This would have been a watch he would totally have loved. Very impressed with all the features this watch has. Been alot of technology thought put in making of this watch. Thanks, for sharing this with us. Have a great Christmas day!!
I really would've liked to see a direct comparison with the Instinct. I watched both your videos on the Instinct and Tactix, but what do you personally think about the two compared against each other? What would be better for a survivalist? Obviously the Tactix has extra features, but the Instinct should have better battery life and outdoor readability, right? Which would you recommend?
That was my question. 👍 Thanks for asking. I like the sapphire glass, but I am really wondering if this watch is really worth double the price of the Instinct 2 Solar Tactical.
G'day mate, yeah A LOT to like and thanks for showing it. Actually less expensive than I expected too. Don't mean to be negative, however; I will say though, one could easily become too reliant on it, much the same as a mobile phone. Cheers Duke.
Hi! I have a question about the clock. When training "running" and "walking" on the same route, the clock shows a different distance. The difference is one kilometer. It shows 3.5 km when walking, 4.5km when running. What am I doing wrong?
@@TurreTuntematon Who's mum? You should get a Degree in Electronics and Electricity and buy yourself a Rolex. I did !! I have a stick, but I'm taking up Mig Welding to build a Rock Crowler with 37'' stickies !!! Jeep Unlimited can't go everywhere.
BUT CAN YOU MAKE OR TAKE CALLS ON IT??? 🤣🤣🤣 I ACTUALLY LOVE IT; HOWEVER, HOW MUCH IS IT??? I WOULD MOST DEFINITELY PURCHASE THIS WATCH OVER AN APPLE PRODUCT ANY DAY OF THE WEEK!!! AS FAR AS I’M CONCERNED, THERE IS NO EQUAL TO THIS GARMIN TACTICAL WATCH, AFTER WATCHING YOUR ENTIRE TALKING POINTS YOU HAVE CONVINCED ME TO PURCHASE ONE OF THESE BAD BOYS WELL BEFORE I SAW ALL THE WATCHES FULL CAPABILITIES!!! WOW!!! GARMIN IS CURRENTLY SELLING THE TOP-OF-THE-LINE MODEL FOR USD $749.99 WHILE AMAZON IS CURRENTLY SELLING THE EXACT SAME MODEL FOR USD $1,089.99!!! WAY TO GO BEZO!!!
I stated in the video that it has stealth mode to defend against this. Operators running theirs overseas in this mode. Who have a higher probability of risk than a common person without issue.
JACK, Thank you for showing this watch, and for All the other really great products you've shown and offered over the years. But, I mostly wanted to take this opportunity to wish you and your family and truly Blessed CHRISTMAS Brother, and thank you for your honesty, and wise and GODLY advice, and Being someone who we can count on! God bless and keep you in HIS WILL ALWAYS JACK, MARANATHA... Walter, ☝️🤟🌄🔜🙏LUKE 21
When it comes to watches specifically, electronic watches that are battery operated, they only remain visible in working order, when brand new to me, for 15 to 30 minutes TOPS ! ! ! Then, I can set it down walk 5 or more feet away, and it will resume functioning properly, only to fade away as I approach closer than 5 to 6 feet. Only type of watch that continues to function as intended, is the analog style self winding watch. I carry an analog Compass, and a self-winding divers watch. Challenge right now is, finding a new self-winding Diving watch, since my old one has finally ceased to operate. Any suggestions???
can you put postcode in this as well to navigate also what health information does it give as well ? also is this one Garmin Tactix Delta or the solar version and which one would you go for ? does it link with os and android so work with both ? thanks
Nice watch BUT I don’t know if I’d trust wristbands that just “snap on & off” like that..? That looks pretty chintzy to me..and sure, I’m SURE and assuming no doubt they’ve TESTED their durability, etc., it still doesn’t seem real quality-like ON A HIGH-END watch like this. Scared to even know what the price is!?
If James Bond had that watch, he would have a 1000x better watch than his Omega, that is, until it ran out of battery power. I never saw Bond on a two-week-plus extended mission in the field anyway. He always had a hotel room and charger handy.
The Fenix 7x with Applied Ballistics is a much better watch, imo, because of the touch screen feature. Also. I believe it gets slightly better battery life. Touch screen is a major improvement and worth EVERY penny of the additional cost.
@@tcasex I can respect that, that is a rough and crazy sport, you mountain bikers are hamburger but I still can't get used to the "huge" watch craze. Thanks for the input and Merry Christmas
@@BlackScoutSurvival Thanks. I have a bad habit of putting them in my back pocket. Looks like they could be robust enough to handle my arse when I sit on them. lol
Is there a huge amount of difference between the tactix delta and fenix? I'm in Australia and we haven't had a wide spread release of the tactix but most of those features appear on my fenix
Not really. The Tactix Delta is essentially a Fenix 6X with a few features that might be useful to military personnel like stealth mode or night vision mode. You can also get a sapphire solar lens. With the 6x you can get sapphire or solar but not both. In that sense it's almost like a 6.5x so to speak. The Fenix 7X has the sapphire solar option. There are a couple other small things but if you don't have a reason to use those features then the Fenix 6X or 7X are better options.

What do you think about the Instinct tactical?
It’s great. We sell it on our website. And we just did a video on that one a few weeks back.
Where is Jerry rig to test this one?
I like the shades. What kind are they?
Oakley.
@@BlackScoutSurvival Thanks. I have a bad habit of putting them in my back pocket. Looks like they could be robust enough to handle my arse when I sit on them. lol
Bahia Del Sol ha! Fellow Tampa Bay friend?
If the grid goes down will GPS satellite's still be working?
Lol. Are satellites connected to the grid? There’s your answer.
Is there a huge amount of difference between the tactix delta and fenix? I'm in Australia and we haven't had a wide spread release of the tactix but most of those features appear on my fenix
Not really. The Tactix Delta is essentially a Fenix 6X with a few features that might be useful to military personnel like stealth mode or night vision mode. You can also get a sapphire solar lens. With the 6x you can get sapphire or solar but not both. In that sense it's almost like a 6.5x so to speak. The Fenix 7X has the sapphire solar option. There are a couple other small things but if you don't have a reason to use those features then the Fenix 6X or 7X are better options.
What watch face is that you’re using?
Where did u get the watch band
So this can be used for turn by turn navigation without being tethered to phone?
Yes that’s correct
@@BlackScoutSurvival
That's cool, thanks!
I would like something with less features for more around the $200 mark. GPS and solar maybe
Standby. We will be doing a variety of reviews in all ranges.
@@BlackScoutSurvival I appreciate it brother, great content glad to see a fellow Marine who puts out knowledge
The Garmin Instinct
would be in your ballpark.
@@longdongvondiqenbaum right up my alley, much appreciated!
