If you love hunting for tech clues as much as I do, certification databases are like a treasure map. Just a few weeks ago, we were buzzing over model number A05197, which many of us suspected could be the upcoming Garmin Enduro 4. But right when we thought we had a clear picture, a brand-new listing just popped up today.
A fresh regulatory filing reveals a mysterious Garmin “Outdoor Product” carrying the model number A05240.
The certificate comes straight from PT Garmin Indonesia Distribution, issued on September 10, 2026. Like previous mystery filings, it doesn’t reveal much. It simply lists the brand as Garmin, the country of origin as Taiwan, and places it squarely under the “Outdoor Products” category.
Naturally, digging through other databases like the FCC or SIRIM right now yields nothing. So, what on earth is Garmin cooking up this time? Let’s break down the possibilities.
1. Could it be the Enduro 4 after all?
We already have our eyes on model A05197 for the Enduro 4. But could Garmin be testing a secondary regional variant, or did a completely different version sneak through? Given the massive battery life and rugged build expected from an ultra-runner’s watch, it wouldn’t be shocking to see multiple variants. Still, having two separate model numbers for what looks like the same lineup leaves us scratching our heads.
2. Next-Gen Luxury and Tactical Watches: Marq Gen 3, Quatix 9, or Tactix 9?
With the flagship Fenix 9 freshly launched, we all know it’s only a matter of time before Garmin rolls out its luxury, marine, and tactical derivatives. Devices like the Marq Gen 3, Quatix 9, and Tactix 9 traditionally share the core architecture of the latest Fenix generation. Could A05240 be the first early-stage paperwork for one of these heavy hitters?
3. Or… is it a Cycling Computer like the Edge 1060?
Here is something easy to forget: Garmin actually files its cycling computers—like the Edge series—under the “Outdoor Products” umbrella rather than strict fitness categories. Everyone was expecting Garmin to release the Edge 1060 back in June based on their usual release pattern, but it never showed up. Because of that delay, some people in the community started to doubt if Garmin is actually going to release the Edge 1060 this year at all. Could model A05240 be the surprise device that proves the skeptics wrong?
The Waiting Game Continues
Right now, guessing Garmin’s exact roadmap feels like putting together a puzzle in the dark. Between new watch architectures, potential variants, and cycling tech, model A05240 keeps the mystery alive.
I’m keeping my eyes on other databases for more info, so stay tuned for updates as soon as something drops.
