If you're ready to level up your smartwatch game while you save some dough, check out this time deal on a high-performance Garmin smartwatch.
Right now, Amazon is selling Garmin epix Pro (Gen 2) Sapphire Edition High-Performance Smartwatches for $610. That's 45% off the original list price of $1,100. Plus, you can earn 10% back if you use your Prime Visa card on the purchase. That's $61 in additional savings.
You can also grab the same Garmin smartwatch at Walmart for the same low price of $610. The item qualifies for free shipping at both retailers.
The 51mm watch is available in Carbon Gray DLC Titanium with a Black Band. My two favorite features include the smartwatch's long battery life and its LED flashlight. But the watch is packed with many more features.
Garmin says, "All day, every day—the epix Pro-Sapphire Edition smartwatch helps you conquer every hour. Designed for larger wrists, this ultimate high-performance smartwatch features a stunning AMOLED display. Go longer between charges with up to weeks of battery life in smartwatch mode. Rise to any challenge with advanced training features; hill score measures your climbing performance over time, and real-time stamina updates gauge your stamina potential. The bright LED flashlight provides convenient illumination when you need it. Prioritize your mental and physical wellness with 24/7 health monitoring features such as advanced sleep tracking, HRV status and more (data presented is intended to be a close estimation of metrics tracked). Navigate with preloaded TopoActive maps and ski resort maps; download even more regions for global adventures. Gain superior positioning accuracy in any environment while optimizing battery life, thanks to multi-band and multi-GNSS with SatIQ technology."
There are over 700 ratings for this smartwatch on Amazon and Walmart. The average rating is 4.7 stars out of five.
One five-star reviewer says, "Buy once, cry once. Upgraded from Fenix 3 and Apple Watch. Light years better than both."
Another happy buyer says, "This watch is amazing. I debated for a while ordering it as it is definitely expensive, but it’s worth the price depending on your needs. I upgraded from an Apple Watch, and the difference is night and day. I use this for training, and I record everything, and it shows me every little detail, even details I didn’t even realize I wanted (Torch!), and more. The battery life is also amazing ... I use this with Music and GPS every day, and the battery lasts me 10 days easily. The Apple Watch wouldn’t even last a day."
A third reviewer says, "Kids got it for me for Father's Day. I like hiking and wanted one. But hiking info is just a start. This thing is loaded with info. Best watch I've ever had."

Here's what more happy buyers had to say about this Garmin smartwatch:
"Love my watch. I wear this watch 24/7 and track steps, floors climbed, and other amazing features. I highly recommend this watch and brand."
"This is my first ever Garmin Watch. So far, I am incredibly impressed! It is so nice, I am hesitant to get it dirty and am afraid to scratch it. However, it is incredibly durable, and I am amazed at how accurate the rep count is and how comfortable the watch is. There is so much customization and features available! I know I will never be able to utilize up to 10 percent of the watch's potential, but I will certainly try and continue to build myself with it."
"I'm amazed how tough and indestructible this watch is. I'm super rough with everything, and my watch still looks brand new. And it works well. I love the battery life."
If you're looking for an upgrade in the smartwatch department, a Garmin epix Pro could be for you. It also makes a great gift, so keep it in mind if you have any birthdays, anniversaries, or graduations on the horizon. You could even get an early start on that Christmas list, too.
