If you’re trying to set yourself up for a healthier 2026 or finish the year strong with your 2025 fitness goals complete, a smart wearable device like a watch or ring can help you. If you’ve been considering this, you might be looking at offers from Apple, Samsung or Google. However, many people forget how powerful Garmin smartwatches can be. These watches can be a significant investment, but they’re well worth it, especially if you can find a deal like this one.
The Garmin Fenix 8 smartwatch normally sells for $1,200, which is a pretty steep price tag. This $350 discount brings the price down to a record-low price of $850. It’s still expensive, but it’s never been at a lower price and probably won’t be again for the rest of the year.
This Garmin watch has tons of useful high-end features. It has a built-in microphone and speaker, an LED flashlight and Garmin’s signature GPS. It also includes 24/7 health and fitness trackers for tons of metrics, including heart rate, sleep and more. Garmin’s watches are a bit on the premium side, but the company accepts HSA and FSA dollars, which can help make the purchase a little easier.
CNET’s former expert reviewer Lexy Savvides was most impressed by the battery life of this model. “Its battery life runs rings around these smartwatches as it can last almost a month on a single charge,” she wrote. A battery that lasts almost a month is practically unheard of, making this well worth the purchase.

Why this deal matters
Garmin makes fantastic smartwatches, but they usually come with a big price tag. Thanks to this $350 discount, you can snatch one up at a record-low price. Keep in mind, this deal is only for the titanium model with the pebble gray band. The titanium with the yellow/graphite band option is $100 more. This is also the 51mm size, as the other sizes have already sold out. We assume this one will go soon as well, so grab one now if you’re interested.
