Red lines on the background of the screen.

When using certain functions of the watch red or white lines appear in the background. In the picture you can see the red lines right in the angle created by the difference in colors. My watch is brand new. Has anyone else had this problem. ¿Should I ask for a replacement?

Hello! This is the "Timer" screen. It is the normal red line that shows when the timer is counting down. 

Thanks for the reply. But i am actually referring to the red lines at the center of the watch. If you zoom the picture you can see them. They are at the angle created by the timer, right on top of the number zero.

I appreciate your time!

Okay, do those lines ever go away or are they always there? Would you be able to show another picture with the lines?

I've had the watch for just a few days and have seen the lines only in the function timer. Most of them disappear as the timer goes through the screen, but they are always there when the timer starts. 

I'm going to try to get more pictures. The lines are there but my phone's camera has trouble getting them.  

My camera is having trouble getting a clearer picture. They look like a problem with the pixels, but as i said they disappear as the timer goes on.

Okay, have you updated the watch since you have received it? I am curious if these lines show up any where else on the device. 

Yes, the watch is updated. I have not seen them in other parts of the device, but I have not used all the different functions it has. As I said, I've had it for just a few days. 

I really appreciate all of the help.

Okay, may I reach out to you via email from Garmin?

Yes, no problem. Thanks!

Great! I sent you an email!
