A Ukrainian retailer’s listing has surfaced, suggesting Garmin is preparing a screenless fitness band dubbed the Cirqa. The device adopts a minimalist fabric strap, offers no display, and promises continuous monitoring of heart rate, sleep, steps and calories. At a rumored price near $510, it would eclipse any current model in the category.

Screenless trackers have gained traction after Google launched the Fitbit Air, a $100‑priced band with up to a week of battery life. Whoop continues its subscription‑based approach, charging $199‑$359 annually for similar data. Garmin’s entry, if priced as listed, would sit well above both competitors, forcing buyers to weigh premium hardware against service fees.

Consumers skeptical of a $510 passive tracker may demand features beyond basic metrics, such as advanced stress analysis or longer battery endurance. Garmin has yet to detail any differentiators that justify the steep tag. Until official specs arrive, the Cirqa remains a pricey curiosity in a market increasingly defined by affordability. A soft band may also improve comfort during sleep and workouts.
