Garmin is celebrating 35 years of business today, and to celebrate, the company is offering discounts on a wide range of its products. That includes many of its watches, which are some of the best fitness wearables around for your tracking health and fitness, and a few bike computers (plus other cycling tools). There are also savings across other categories like golf, fishing, hunting, dog sports, and more, should those interest you.
The best Garmin watches for tracking your fitness
No matter how you like to get movement in, the best Garmin watches will help you take your fitness to the next level.
Most of these discounts reflect the lowest prices we've ever seen on these Garmin devices.
Deals on Garmin Forerunner watches
Save on multiple models of running watches
The Garmin Forerunner lineup is the way to go for those mostly focused on running. While these devices can track plenty of workouts beyond running, they offer running-specific features to help you get the most out of your training. Three models are discounted during the Garmin Birthday Sale, offering something for entry-level and budget-focused runners to serious pros.
The Forerunner 965 is at the lowest price we've ever seen, bringing it to the same price as the typical cost of the Forerunner 265 (which is also on sale). That's a fantastic deal for one of the best running watches around. Should you only want the basics, the Forerunner 55 is also on sale for the lowest price we've seen.
