These Garmin Watches Are Still on Sale After Prime Day.
I just checked the date on my Garmin watch, and Prime Day 2026 is officially over. But you’re in luck: Amazon is running some great deals on Garmin watches right now.
As someone who has trained for seven marathons over the past seven years, I can say that the right running watch is a powerful tool. I’ve made great strides in this regard, considering I ran my first few marathons without a watch at all. Now, I always wear my Garmin Forerunner 970 .
Garmin recently released the Forerunner 70 and 170, meaning its older models—which are still excellent—are perfect for Prime Day discounts. Garmin watches have a great reputation in the endurance sports world, and for good reason: they offer detailed data and reliable GPS tracking, typically with several weeks of battery life. Here are the best Garmin deals that caught my eye during this year’s Prime Day sale.
The second generation Garmin Epix Pro is 50% off.
Last week, the Garmin Epix Pro (Gen 2) Sapphire Edition was on sale for 50% off, and now it’s a generous 35% off, bringing the regular price of $999.99 down to $663.36. The reason for this significant discount is that Garmin merged the Epix and Fenix product lines, and this model has been replaced by the Fenix 8 series. However, this watch is still a great value. It tracks sleep and blood oxygen levels, measures VO2 Max, tracks 30 activities, offers a multisport mode, and offers additional features not found on most running-specific watches, such as golf features, tide information, and fishing forecasts.
The Garmin Forerunner line is currently available at a very competitive price.
If the Epix Pro seems overkill to you, then you might want to consider the Forerunner series.

The Garmin Forerunner 55 is now $129, down from $199.99: it’s the most basic of Garmin’s new running watches. Don’t let the word “basic” scare you off. As my colleague Beth Skwarecki reports, this watch was enough to help Sebastian Sawe break the marathon barrier in under two hours earlier this year.

The Garmin Forerunner 165 is now on sale for $199.99, down from $249.99. It’s my favorite entry-level running watch . The music version is also on sale; as always, it’s $50 more than the standard model.

The Garmin Forerunner 265 headphones are now $349.99, down from $449.99. While no longer the latest and greatest, they remain popular among Garmin users. This model is a step up from the entry-level, with dual-band GPS, power meter compatibility, and advanced analytics (such as training status).
Lifehacker favorites Garmin Vivoactive 5 earbuds are $40 off.
Away from the Forerunner line, the Garmin Vivoactive 5 is on sale for $189.99 (regular price $229.99). It’s another Lifehacker favorite and a great choice for most fitness enthusiasts. It’s been replaced by the Vivoactive 6 ($299.99), but the Vivoactive 5 is still a great watch.
