Images that may show a pre-production version of the long-awaited Garmin Instinct 3 sports watch have appeared online. The photos are intriguing, suggesting a big departure from the Instinct 2's design, but it's worth taking them with a pinch of salt because their origin is impossible to verify; the pictures are now circulating widely, but were first posted on Reddit by a user who claimed to have found them "in some Telegram channel".
The images, which you can see embedded below, show a watch that keeps the solid build and monochrome memory-in-pixel display of previous Instinct watches, but has a busier look with a chunkier appearance and visible screws on the lugs. It's an unusual look, which led the original poster to call it an "ugly Fenix 6's baby".
