Quatix 7X - Solar Edition
Marine GPS smartwatch with Solar ChargingPLOT YOUR PARADISE ON THE WATER AND BEYOND
With quatix® 7X – Solar Edition, the multisport GPS smartwatch with solar charging, you’ll get all the features you need on your boat and the ones you want off it.
Do more. Charge less. Solar charging yields up to 37 days of battery life in smartwatch mode2.
Get a battery boost from the sunlight, so you can go longer between charges.
When you own a boat, you want to stay connected. quatix 7 is your answer.
Touch or tap, it’s up to you. Use traditional buttons or the new touchscreen interface.
No matter where you go, know where you are with coastal charts and inland maps.
Off the grid or at your local spot, text messages and smart notifications1 will be able to find you.
SOLAR CHARGED BATTERY
Get up to 28 days of battery life in smartwatch mode with an additional 9 days when solar charging2 — and up to 89 hours in GPS mode with an additional 33 hours when solar charging6.
