Great to see Garmin continuing to invest in the MARQ line with the new Damascus stainless steel version

As a huge fan of both the GEN one and GEN two MARQs, very happy to see new materials versions released.

Suggests there’s a significant enough market to continue to support this line, which is a question I and others who love the product have worried about. 

Also good news to see new versions released 2+ years after the first MARQ 2 was introduced, which suggest ongoing support for at least a few more years of the GEN 2 edition.

As a knife nerd, I’ve seen Damascus steel take off and become quite popular even if some critics disparage it as trendy and so on. I personally like the way they designed this.

Yes, stainless steel adds a lot more weight to the watch. But let’s be honest: if you’re buying a MARQ, you’re not just buying an athletic tool, but also a lifestyle product. So making it heavier is fine in my opinion.

Bravo Garmin!
