Oops, Garmin may have unintentionally leaked the existence of new smartwatch
A slips up reveals Garmin may be working on the Marq Gen 3.
Garmin may have accidentally revealed the existence of a new smartwatch, according to references spotted on the company's Spanish-language support pages. The potential new device, dubbed the Marq Gen 3, was discovered by Garmin Rumors, who found mentions of it on support sites for Spain, Chile, and Argentina.
This incident echoes a similar situation earlier this year when Garmin inadvertently disclosed the Cirqa Smart Band, a screenless wearable that competes with WHOOP and Google Fitbit. The leaked information about the Cirqa Smart Band spread widely before the device's official launch in July.
Given Garmin's track record of mishandling unannounced products, the Marq Gen 3 leak is not entirely surprising. The company's Marq Gen 2 launched in 2022, and it's likely that Garmin is working on an upgraded model. However, the implications of this leak are unclear, as Garmin has not officially confirmed any details about the Marq Gen 3.
