Get your hands on the Garmin Forerunner 745 while it’s down to its lowest price ever
SAVE $ 230: As of Dec. 6, the Garmin Forerunner 745 smartwatch is on sale for just $ 269.99 at Amazon, down from $ 499.99. That’s not only 46% in savings, but also its lowest price ever.
Trying to select a smartwatch from the overly saturated market is overwhelming enough to make a grown man cry. There’s health and fitness-based trackers, all-rounders like the Apple Watch, sports-focused smartwatches, and everything in between. It helps if you’re able to narrow down your options based on your needs. Runners and triathletes, for example, should go with a smartwatch specifically built to keep track of pace, distance, routes, and other metrics with a battery life that can handle your training schedule.
The Garmin Forerunner watches are exactly that — and as of Dec. 6, one of their top models, the Garmin Forerunner 745, is on sale for just $ 269.99 at Amazon. While Amazon has its list price at $ 399.99, the smartwatch actually goes for $ 499.99 at Garmin’s own website. That would make this a 46% price drop from its MSRP and its lowest price to date. Even better, all four color options are in stock and on sale. Choose from black, red, tropic (a vibrant shade of turquoise), or whitestone.
The Forerunner 745 is our favorite running watch for a few reasons. It offers specialized running metrics like cadence, stride length, ground contact time, balance, and training status. Not to mention, it features stats like VO2 max, training load, intensity minutes, body battery, and blood oxygen saturation to help you train when you’re actually feeling your best. If you feel drained, chances are your stats will prove it to you. We also love that Garmin smartwatches, the Forerunner 745 included, have truly impressive battery life (up to one week in smartwatch mode, six hours straight in GPS mode with music playing). As an owner of a Garmin smartwatch myself, I can vouch for this spec. The Apple Watch could never.
