Hi guys, I have the Tactix 7 Pro and was wondering if it would be OK to take this diving with me so i don't need to carry an extra watch when traveling. I have a shearwater Perdix for my dive puter but normally wear a dive watch as well (Seiko Orange Monster). The tactix claims to be waterproof to 10ATM which is 110m and I rarely dive over 40m, so In theory it should be fine right?
Cheers
A dive watch/watch for diving has to have a mainumum of 10 ATM and the DIN Norm EN 13319/ISO6425 certification/rating (as the special Garmin dive watches have). So only a 10ATM rating is not enough for…
No, neither fenix nor tactix are approved for scuba diving.

good for :
splashes, rain or snow, showering, swimming, diving into water, snorkeling…
depth underwater is depth underwater.
Well, depth =/= pressure. The ATM rating is all about static pressure. Moving underwater and swiping your arms increases the pressure on your watch dramatically…
No one is claiming that the Fenix etc is a dive watch, only that you can dive with it.
Then you obviously know more than Garmin itself 
Garmin does not say that.
Don’t waste your time!
you are so right
