I’ve been reviewing Garmin watches for years, and I know a good deal when I see one - so trust me when I say this is the best of the Black Friday Garmin deals I’ve seen so far. And if you’re in the market for one of the best Garmin watches (or even one of the best running watches period, for that matter) you’d be mad to pass this up. 

Right now, the Garmin Epix (Gen 2) which usually retails for $799.99, has had its priced slashed by 44% to just $449.00. That’s the same price range as a mid-range watch like the Garmin Venu 3 or Garmin Forerunner 265 – both great value prospects on their own, but the Garmin Epix (Gen 2) blows them right out of the water. At this price, it’s even better value than the Apple Watch Ultra.

The Garmin Epix is essentially the Garmin Fenix 7, which offers best-in-class GPS navigation and fitness tools, and adds an AMOLED screen over the top. This way, you get a lovely smartwatch screen which also happens to display extremely detailed topographical maps. Check out the deal below:
