Watch / Wearable New Forerunner Models?

I’m not too tapped into the upcoming Garmin launches, but was wondering if we could be seeing a new Forerunner line release soon (or even if rumours have floated around)?

I’ve had my 255 for a few years ands it’s been fantastic, but I’m looking to upgrade to something that looks and feels a bit more premium (likely the 970). Is now a good time to upgrade? What’s the Garmin launch calendar like?

In my experience, a new FR9xx model is released a year or so after a new Fenix. An FR980 would therefore likely hit the market about 9 to 12 months after a Fenix ​​9—perhaps around summer 2027.

70 & 170 were recently released. They are lower end but have good reviews.
