Garmin Watch Discounts Expected for Black Friday 2025
Several Garmin watch models are anticipated to see significant price reductions during the upcoming Black Friday sales event, offering potential savings for consumers looking to upgrade their wearable technology.
Based on historical sales data and recent product releases, experts predict discounts on the Forerunner 165, Vivoactive 6, Forerunner 265, Forerunner 965, and Epix Pro models. The Forerunner 165, a popular entry-level running watch, is expected to drop by at least $50, while the Forerunner 265 could see savings of $100 or more. The launch of newer models often drives down prices on their predecessors, making this a prime opportunity for buyers.
More advanced models like the Forerunner 965 and Epix Pro, now superseded by newer releases, are also likely candidates for substantial discounts. The Epix Pro has previously been available for between $600 and $650 during sales events. These discounts are particularly noteworthy as Garmin watches are known for their comprehensive sports tracking and training analysis features, appealing to both casual fitness enthusiasts and serious athletes.

The Black Friday sales period typically extends throughout November, giving consumers ample time to find deals. Finding the right wearable can significantly improve fitness tracking and overall health awareness. Consumers can find more information about Garmin products on the official Garmin website.
Retailers are expected to announce specific deals in the coming weeks, and consumers are advised to monitor sales closely to secure the best possible prices.
The best Garmin watches are always prime candidates for discounts during the Black Friday sales, with even quite new models often being reduced.
The Black Friday sales now usually run for several weeks through November, so you shouldn’t have to wait long now for Garmin watch deals to start showing up, and if past years are anything to go by there will be a wide selection of the brand’s wearables on sale.
I’ve been testing and reviewing Garmin watches for a decade, as well as covering big sales periods like Black Friday, so usually I have a good idea of what watches you can expect to see discounted.
There’s no guarantee these deals will appear, but based on my experience, I expect to see deals on these five Garmin watches in particular.
Garmin Forerunner 165
This won’t be the most exciting discount because the Garmin Forerunner 165 is an older watch and almost always on sale, but I expect both the music and non-music model of the entry-level running watch to drop by at least $50 in the Black Friday sales. It’s a great option for new runners, or experienced ones who prefer a smaller, simpler device on their wrist.
Garmin Vivoactive 6
This is one of the newer watches in Garmin’s line-up, but has already dropped by $50 at one point earlier this year, so I’m hoping for the same deal to crop up this Black Friday. The Vivoactive 6 is one of the more affordable Garmin watches and has a smartwatch-style look and great sports tracking.
Garmin Forerunner 265
The launch of the Garmin Forerunner 570 this years means that its predecessor, the Forerunner 265, is a likely candidate for discounts this Black Friday. It’s a brilliant lightweight running and triathlon watch with a bright AMOLED screen, and with luck it will drop by at least $100, a deal that has been available in the past on the Forerunner 265.
Garmin Forerunner 965
With the Garmin Forerunner 970 now sitting at the top of the Forerunner line-up, its predecessor is ripe for discounts, and the Forerunner 965 has been reduced by as much as $100 in past sales. At that price, or maybe even less, it’s the best value sports watch you can get, offering comprehensive sports tracking and training analysis, and offline maps.
Garmin Epix Pro
The Epix Pro has been superseded by both the Garmin Fenix 8 AMOLED and Garmin Fenix 8 Pro at this point, so it’s nearly always reduced somewhere. It’s on sale right now, in fact, but I’d expect its price to drop even lower in the Black Friday sales. It’s been available for $600-$650 in the past, depending on the size you go for.
