IPGfor Garmin Descent Mk3i (Case Dimention:51 mm) Hydrogel Screen Protector (2 Units) Invisible HD Clear Film Anti Scratch Guard-Smooth/Self-Healing/Bubble for Mk3i/51 mm

Given how hard it is to install screen protectors in general, I didn't mess around with this one. I left the Garmin (Garmin Descent MK3i) factory screen guard on and the device in the box until I was ready to put on this protector to avoid any contamination that might prevent it from sticking properly. I followed the instructions exactly, and then let the screen protector dry in place for 48 hours before messing with the watch again.So far its has held up very well. I'm a scuba instructor, and this screen protector has stood up to a month of regular use on the boat and in the water without issue. You can tell it's on there (just like any screen protector), but it doesn't have any excess glare or dullness. Overall I'd buy again.

This is the second screen protector I’ve bought for my Garmin Mk3i after I scratched the face. This went on easily and the instructions were very easy to follow. I was skeptical, but this protector held up to a week of 4 dives a day in Bonaire. I’m going to buy this for all of my devices. Hands down the best protector I’ve ever used. The package that was sent was for a different model, but worked with my watch model. I let the protector set over night and waited a week before I took it on a dive.

These are a no brainer. Garmin’s are expensive and built to last, but nobody wants to see scratches on the screen. Easy to put on and had no bubbles.

Sticks for a week or so before it started to shift to the side and bubble up. I didn’t even get to dive with it yet so I can’t speak for how it holds up in water but it did not last long before that. It peeled right off and wasn’t sticky. Total waste of money and I can’t return them.

Since there are no reviews for this I figured I would write one.Seems like the MK3 is something of a niche product because there are very few screen protectors available for it. That also explains why these cost twice what they should. These are the flexible plastic kind - because there aren't any hard glass ones available, which is unfortunate.It doesn't seem quite as good as the flexible plastic Super Shieldz screen protectors I purchased for my Garmin 965 (not as clear) but it stays on and is of decent quality.

Yes it is pricey. The sheer number of functions that can be performed with this watch makes it easier to part with the cash. Battery life is very good too. If you take diving seriously, then it is either this one or the Shearwater.

I was skeptical when I bought this. I am pretty rough on a watch and expected this to not last. I am happy to report that so far this has taken multiple dings and hits and showed the damage on the surface. But after a day it was flat as normal and did not show any damage.

The shield installs really easily and looks good on the watch, actually made the screen glossier and nicer. The problem is that the Garmin charger damages it relatively quickly with normal use and you have to replace it frequently or find a way to “protect the shield” while charging.
