Garmin, a Malaysia-based company, has proudly introduced to the market its most luxurious smartwatch to date. The new models are part of the MARQ Carbon collection, which boasts a unique design using 130 layers of Fused Carbon FiberTM. These high-end smartwatches have been created to provide an unmatched blend of features that are specifically tailored to cater the needs of avid sportspeople.

Scoppen Lin, Garmin Asia's Assistant General Manager, states that the name MARQ has symbolized refined style and superlative design over the years. We are very excited to continue this tradition with the MARQ Carbon collection. Apart from offering an opulent design through the beautiful carbon fiber case, the collection integrates exceptional features, smartwatch capabilities and more into this truly unique tool watch. This collection is designed to support individuals in pursuing their passions.

The collection offers two models, the MARQ Athlete and MARQ Golfer. Each model is crafted with a 46mm watch case made from Fused Carbon Fiber, making these watches the lightest in the MARQ range. The unique construction process ensures each watch boasts a distinct case design, making every piece unique.

Designed as the ultimate multisport utility, the MARQ Athlete can monitor various sports such as running, swimming, hiking, rowing, indoor climbing, and more. It can also track various workouts like cardio, strength exercises, yoga and Pilates. The watch also gauges advanced metrics such as endurance and hill scores to help athletes assess their performance. A unique training readiness score analyzes sleep quality, recovery period, training load, and more to indicate if it’s the right day for intense training or a day for relaxing.

Additionally, the MARQ Athlete offers advanced training features for runners such as PacePro and Garmin Coach, daily workout suggestions, and a race widget to prepare for their races. The other model, the MARQ Golfer, comes equipped with courses from more than 43,000 locations worldwide to support golfers in enhancing their games. The Virtual Caddie offers club suggestions based on wind conditions, swing data, and elevation. Golfers can also view the slope direction on select courses with an active Garmin Golf membership. These features provide a detailed view of each hole being played.

The luxurious touch of the MARC Carbon Collection does not end with the sports features. Each watch boasts an AMOLED touchscreen display for a bright and clear display, protected by a domed sapphire lens from scratches. The carefully designed watch bracelets and straps cater to each customer's preferences and are available in materials like perforated FKM leather, jacquard-weave nylon or silicone. Each MARQ watch promises up to 16 days of battery life on a single charge, providing peace of mind during outdoor adventures. It also includes a inductive magnetic charger that fully replenishes the battery in roughly one hour.
