If you found this review useful you can become a DCR Supporter/Member and help support the site. Once I wrap up this review I’ll (extra) carefully pack these back up and ship them back to them with all the extra insurance boxes checked. Oh, and lastly, I’ve been using a media loaner from Garmin (two units actually). If you’ve already seen my hands-on post a few months back, then you can skip over this next overview section. But we’ll get back to that a bit later.įirst, let’s go through an overview of the whole series. And just like that camera gear, these watches will be mostly obsolete in 3-5 years. Whether or not one feels said look is worth that price is a different question, the reality is that people are buying these watches just like I buy expensive camera gear. Instead, buying something like the MARQ series is because you want the look of it. Seriously, all of it (and has better battery life). After all, the new Garmin FR945 at $599 contains every single bit of software functionality as the MARQ Athlete.
Now, before we get too far into things one has to realize that when you’re talking watches into the thousands of dollars – it’s not about the features anymore. But more importantly, more time than most reviews to dive into the good…and then the less than awesome, of using the unit.
I’ve got more MARQ data than I know what to do with. All-in, there’s five different MARQ units, representing each of Garmin’s core business segments (Aviation, Outdoors, Fitness, Marine, and Automotive).įor the majority of those five months the MARQ has been on my left wrist. Though the Athlete variant that this review is focused on will set you back ‘only’ $1,500. What are the general monitoring, reporting, recordkeeping and verification requirements of this part?Īuthorization and responsibilities of the designated representative.It’s been nearly five months since Garmin first announced their high-end MARQ series watches, which top out at $2,500 for the Driver edition.
