Garmin had quietly launched five new smartwatches from its MARQ series of luxury wearables. Now, it appears that the company is yet again gearing up for another launch. This time, it appears that its a hybrid smartwatch model, dubbed the Garmin Instinct Crossover.
However, prior to any official announcement, it appears that the upcoming hybrid smartwatch has been leaked. One of the brand’s manufacturers accidentally leaked a new outdoor watch, which was spotted on the manufacturer’s Taiwanese website. THe product page showcases three color options as well, namely Black, Solar – Tactical Edition, and Solar – Graphite. These solar models will feature solar powered batteries, while the tactical edition will offer notable features like night vision and stealth modes.
The watch will sport a display that has a 176 by 176 px resolution and a circular panel. As per the listing, the device can last for up to 28 days on a single full charge on the Smart Watch Mode or up to 30 days, with the solar charging feature. Furthermore, the wearable also supports dual format GPS and can even receive notifications from a connected Android or iOS device. It also supports contactless payment through Garmin Pay.
In many ways, the Instinct Crossover is similar to the regular Instinct smartwatch models. However, the key difference lies in its analogue clock with luminescent physical watch hands situated on top of the display. This is what makes it a hybrid watch, which also features RevoDrive auto-calibration technology that ensures accurate time being displayed in the case of any shocks that the watch might face. The pricing for this model is still unknown, so stick around for more updates.
