Any former Marq 2 owners?

How do you find the build quality of F8 compared to Marq 2?

Which version do you have of the both models? 

I have the Marq 2 Aviator and the Fenix 8 47mm Amoled, so effectively the same case size. The Fenix build quality is fine but it does not look as premium as the Marq as one would expect from the price difference. I have a Ti band from my Fenix 6 and a premium leather strap that I bought for the Marq both of which improve the aesthetics of the Fenix significantly.

That's my worry since the Marq 2 Aviator with the hardened titanium band looks gorgeous. 

I'll pop a couple of pictures in here with the 2 bands when I get home this evening.

Thanks! 

How do you find the battery life of F8 compared to Marq 2? 

I get about 15days on a normal set-up with wrist gesture, sleep SpO2 and about 10hrs GPS activities per week. I don't really use the Marq for activities, it normally gets used socially and keeps up with my 24/7 coverage. I normally charge it every 2 weeks.

Thanks for the pics! The screen size difference is substantial indeed. 

It's a shame that the Marq titanium band won't fit the Fenix.

I'm sure that was a conscious decision to preserve the singularity.

Yeah, I haven't seen the 51mm in person but it must be huge.
