Brand new VA4 stuck on triangle on first boot

Hi, I just received my VA4, charged it, and there was this triangle.

Restarted (power button for ca 15 sec), no go. Same triangle.

Google like crazy, no solution worked.

Plugged in to computer with and without Garmin Express (computers sees an unknown device, that's it). Express does not find the watch.

Holding the button for 30, 45 sec, 60 sec

Holding both buttons and releasing power after start, when releasing the second button it's like the device reconnects to the computer (connect on power on, stays connected, reconnects on button release).

Is there a way to enter some kind of diagnosis on this watch, found a couple of videos, one is on VA3.

edit: tried power on letting go at triangle, and quickly press and hold second button. Tried holding power button and quickly press and hold second after triangle.

I've filed a warranty issue, but I rather try to get this working.

Update: I gave up. I saw that Amazon could send a new one directly, and I have 30 days to return the faulty one. Will be much quicker! And I've read Garmin can send you a refurbished one in return.
