Reliable and life saver if no other navigation source is available Screen readability is difficult in a strange way. Visible in direct sunlight, yet, poorly visible in most normal lighting conditions. Garmin Pilot integration works well and simple. I have added waypoints in Garmin Pilot and they become easily transferred and available in D2. Flight plans easily transfer to D2 from Garmin Pilot. Plans can be created in D2 directly if you dont mind taking the time. Nearest function and Direct To functions work perfect even to waypoints that I have created and imported from GarminPilot. Many users of the next model D2 Bravo watch indicated major lack of features that are available and function well in the D2. Very unwise of Garmin I think. I am glad knowing i have additional reliable navigation source.Read full review

I am a student pilot and this watch is a great aid to flying. For one thing UTC time is plainly displayed which is great for inflight flight plan updates and planning. It has a bunch of features ranging from navigation to all kinds of info such as compass, heading, altitude, ground speed and more. A little tricky learning to use all the features but worth it. You can also link it to gopilot on your ipad.

First off seller was excellent but the D2 itself is a great backup for another Garmin product installed in my aircraft.It is I must admit a little harder to use than a 795 but does provide another quick way to get closest airport info. The D2's major drawback is battery life if you intend to use it as a daily watch as well as a GPS.Not going to work out well I am afraid also if you neglect to switch back to watch only mode after flying time keeping will end sooner than you think.Overall biggest thing is to memorize functions and you will have a great GPS avionics backup Capt Pat
The D2 Pilot GPS watch is a great back up system to whatever the primary navigation system is in your airplane. If all else fails, you could reasonably expect to navigate to the nearest or any other airport within the range of the airplane.
