Garmin adds AMOLED displays to its Instinct Crossover hybrid smartwatches
Blend function and style with illuminated analog watch hands for clear visibility – day and night
OLATHE, Kan., Sept. 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Garmin (NYSE:GRMN) today announced Instinct® Crossover AMOLED, its newest lineup of hybrid smartwatches designed to offer superior readability and timeless style in even the toughest conditions. Featuring mechanical watch hands, the vivid AMOLED display showcases 24/7 health and wellness data, activities and more in stunning detail. Meanwhile, the watch's built-in LED flashlight provides greater visibility in dark environments. And with incredible battery life of up to 14 days in smartwatch mode and 18 days in battery saver mode, users can do more while charging less.
"From a day on the hiking trail to a night on the town, Instinct Crossover AMOLED offers the best of both worlds. With traditional analog hands highlighted on an even brighter display, adventurers can achieve a sophisticated look without sacrificing the durability they need when pursuing their passions." –Susan Lyman, Garmin Vice President of Consumer Sales and Marketing
Bigger and brighter
Instinct Crossover AMOLED combines the classic look of an analog watch with a brilliant, colorful display, all protected by a new scratch-resistant sapphire lens. The watch hands will dynamically move away, making it easier to see data, health stats, smart notifications and more, while the Super-LumiNova® coating ensures users can see the time, even in the dark.
Built for adventure

- RevoDrive™ technology ensures the time stays accurate by automatically detecting and recalibrating misaligned hands in case of impact during an adventure.
- The watch is built to MIL-STD-810 for thermal and shock resistance and includes a dual-layered metal bezel, making it strong enough to endure the toughest adventures.
- With the ability to track in challenging conditions, users can navigate confidently thanks to multi-band GPS with SatIQ™ technology.
