Just got an email from Garmin that despite ordering the Marq 2 Athlete on release day it’s been pushed back until December.

I just started a Facebook Group "GARMIN MARQ 2" to discuss all relates to the new Garmin Marq 2. I know we can do it here as well, but not always logged in into Garmin forum. Hope we can get a community going, to respectfully discuss all related to a watch that we all know is really too expensive, but we wanted it anyway ... because we like the finer things in life!
I believe you. What can be done short of cancelling the order? Do not want to wait for Amazon to get it.
What can be done short of cancelling the order?
Be patient. Initial shipments of most new Garmin offerings are usually delayed. There may be a few shipped by air from Taiwan at time of introduction, but the bulk of the new product inventory is shipped by boat. This takes time - especially with current supply chain issues.
In all fairness to Garmin, it is often very hard to predict exact arrival times for ocean shipments until the products actually clear incoming customs. Most of the delays are beyond Garmin's control, so frustrating for everyone.
Keep your place in line by not cancelling your order, and you will still be one of the first to get your new watch.
HTH
I was unaware of those details, thanks. I am not thinking of cancelling, but by early January, who knows?
Thanks, I think I will keep my order. More and more I see lots of delays with more than just watches.
The delays are actually a lack of truckers available at the ports to finish the final carriage of the container to the destination. Containers wind up sitting at the port for days or even weeks. Been dealing with this at my day job for the last 2 years.
Wow mine finally shipped today.
When did you place your order?
i placed it on the 16th. It's for the Athlete, and I'm in the northeast NY
I placed my order under 3 weeks later, and my status form says 5-8 weeks.
