The Gear List: Score a GPS watch for up to $200 off for Garmin’s birthday sale

To mark the company's birthday, Garmin is cutting prices and offering free shipping on some of our favorite GPS watches.

Welcome to The Gear List, a semi-regular series where we spotlight the best discounts and deals on tactical gear, outdoor equipment, and everything in between.

Anyone who’s spent more than a day in uniform or on a backcountry trail knows that Garmin is one of the biggest names in the outdoor industry. The company’s GPS watches and handheld GPS units enjoy a cult-like following among service members, athletes, backpackers, hunters, and travel junkies alike. Right now, Garmin is offering some of its biggest sellers at a discount to celebrate the company’s birthday. As people who don’t need much of an excuse to party, I’m sure we can all get down with saving some money in honor of the occasion.

Need a versatile GPS watch to handle everything from workouts to land nav and incoming texts? The fenix 6 Pro Solar can do all that and then some. Want a smartwatch that can up your game when you’re fighting for freedom (against middle-schoolers in your favorite video game)? Allow me to introduce the Instinct Esports Edition. Finally, if you just need a solid fitness watch to help you set a personal best score on your annual fitness test, the Forerunner 45 has you covered and won’t weigh you down.

These discounts last through Friday, Sept. 16, so don’t wait to buy the Garmin watch you’ve had your eye on. I expect these to start selling out before then.

These prices were valid at press time, but prices can change and deals do expire.
