Tap title to read story
Garmin’s newest MARQ Gen3 watch arrives with a premium 1.4‑inch AMOLED display, offering three‑color LED lighting and LTE connectivity for calling and texting. The model also introduces real‑time ClimbPro without a pre‑loaded course, a first for Garmin and the broader smartwatch market.
Users can track running, cycling, diving, and gym workouts, while the watch’s satellite messaging supports communication in remote areas. The device’s design includes a borderless ceramic bezel and a full‑grain Italian leather strap, positioning it as a high‑end, lifestyle‑oriented timepiece rather than a traditional watch.
The Gen3’s launch follows a series of annual updates: the Epix Pro, Fenix 8, Fenix 8 Pro, and Fenix 9. Compared to the 2022 MARQ Gen2, the new model adds LTE, satellite messaging, and a brighter display. Garmin’s media event in Mallorca highlighted the watch’s capabilities, and reviewers note
