Unrivaled Navigation for the African Terrain
Equipped with TopoActive Africa maps and multi-band GNSS, the tactix 8 51mm ensures you never lose your way in remote areas like the Cederberg or the Northern Cape. SatIQ technology automatically selects the best GPS mode to maximize accuracy while preserving the watch's industry-leading battery life.
