It’s Christmas, go on. Treat yourself.
Well treat yourself AND 4 other friends with this limited edition box set of MARQ watches from Garmin. These will sell fast so grab yours today.
A snip at $10,000.
Alternatively, just comment below on how ridiculously expensive this is. The “limited-edition” means only 100 sets will be made (aka 100 boxes), 100 sets @£10,000 = $1m for Garmin

My favourite kit and nutrition
- Maurten — the race nutrition trusted by elite athletes. Gels and drink mix engineered to be easy on the stomach.
- Garmin 90-degree charging adapter — the small adapter that keeps your charging cable tidy at the stem. Essential for race day.
- Garmin charging puck — the fastest and most reliable way to top up your Garmin before a session.
- Ravemen FR300 — front light that mounts directly under your Garmin or Wahoo head unit. Keeps your bars clean and your beam pointed where it matters.
- Garmin Varia RTL515 — radar rear light that alerts you to vehicles approaching from behind. Pairs with your Edge or Garmin watch.
- Stryd — the footpod that brings running power to your Garmin. The single most useful running upgrade I have made.
- Favero Assioma Pro RS2 — the power meter pedals most serious cyclists end up choosing. Accurate, easy to move between bikes.

Someone in Garmin has the lost the plot! Did not anyone learn when Apple tried this?
i was going to go for the one word answer but that sometimes comes across as being rude
How rude would it be to respond to this limited-edition bargain with a remark along the lines of “there’s one born every minute”? 😀
aaah. that would be funny, not rude 😉
Just be rude
If sales are low for individual watches try offering them in exclusive, premium batch. 😀
kerching
So long as heart rate is accurate, along with GPS and Altimeter, oh, and syncing with Garmin Connect, I’ll take the lot.
and that’s why they’ve all sold out
er
wait a minute
tho seriosuly i think they all will sell out. $1million. jeez i’m in the wrong business
I have so many friends (or will do soon 😉) that I’d better have two sets 😂😂😂
a box set from you would buy my friendship
hey wait a minute.
even a single MARQ would do that 😉
although I’m not sure a reviewer should ever say such a thing…oh well. it’s done now
(jokin people…jeez)
Well, wait… it’s not a complete set. Why the F is the mercenary one missing?
it’s imminently going to be added. I’m lending Garmin a Stanley knife to cut a hole for that one in the presentation box’s foam lining.
or i could have said “there’s no F in mercenary”
either way, there’s no shortage of hilarity here today
LIMITED EDITION? You´re saying I can´t have as many boxes as I´d like?
Not very customer friendly of Garmin!
FINALLY! It had been so stressful to try and match my daily mood with the correct MARQ. Now I can finally have the peace of mind of having the right look every single day. That’s awesome!!!
😉
Aha, I was expecting a single watch with all the funstionalities of the all…
$10k for a line of watches that’ll have the same company support of about a year or so with aged tech in about six months as the rest of their current watches will?
How’s the saying go?
-A fool and their money are easily parted.-
That’s the one.
i hear ya
we all thought the $1000 iphone was madness but now we’re buying even more expensive ones that’ll last 12-24 months before a much needed replacement
madness
