Garmin's Third-Gen MARQ Watches Start at $2,500 With LTE Calls

Olathe, Kan. – October 13, 2026 -- Garmin's third-generation MARQ collection is available now, with six luxury tool watches starting at a suggested retail price of $2,500 and offering up to 18 days of battery life in smartwatch mode.

The lineup includes the MARQ Adventurer, Athlete, Aviator, Commander, Diver and Golfer. Each has its own bezel, strap or bracelet, plus an exclusive, customizable watch face collection. Faces are inspired by classic timepieces such as the World Timer, Panda and Flieger.

Titanium, sapphire and the biggest MARQ display yet

The watches use Grade-5 titanium and a sapphire lens. The screen is a 1.4-inch borderless AMOLED, the largest on any MARQ so far. Bezels are ceramic with inlaid designs unique to each model.

Maps and inReach connectivity work without a phone

Preloaded TopoActive maps cover the world and support address search. When connected to LTE, wearers can make calls from the watch. The new Garmin Locate feature lets loved ones see a live location in the Garmin Messenger app. Text and voice messages and weather forecasts run over satellite or LTE. An SOS message reaches the 24/7-staffed Garmin Response coordination center. An active plan is required, and LTE coverage is not available in all regions.

A built-in speaker and microphone allow voice commands. With a paired phone, the watch can use the phone's virtual assistant to answer text messages. An LED flashlight with microlensing optics provides uniform light in dim conditions.

An ECG app and daily reports track health

The ECG app analyzes heart rhythm recordings for signs of atrial fibrillation. It is not available in all regions and is intended for adults aged 22 and over. The watches also track stress, sleep, Pulse Ox and HRV. A morning report shows overnight recovery. An evening report outlines how much sleep the wearer needs, plus tomorrow's workout, weather and events.
