Very good price for the Garmin Fenix 6 as it’s usually around the $899-$999 price. Can’t seem to find it cheaper anywhere else.
You can stack this with the 15% cashback ($20 Cap) at ShopBack to bring it down to $479

So am interested in a decent sports watch. I'm using a Fitbit Versa 2 at the moment and even though it supports music there is an issue with the Bluetooth and Airpods where the sound just cuts out all the time (known issue for 2 years, no fix in sight).
So my usage would be running (3 times a week ~4kms for now), light weight work (3 days a week), walking (maybe 1 day a week).
I'm also keen on the 6X price at the moment from JB but wondering if that watch was overkill for me.
So with discounts (Coles Him Cards and Rewards Gateway thru my work, options are):
Garmin 6 - $450
Garmin 6X Sapphie - $615
Which one would you guys go?
I guess it all depends on your preferred size.
I have a Fenix 3 non Sapphire and it is still in great condition after 3.5 years of mountain bike, beach, abseiling etc. It has got micro scratches but considering what this has been through I am quite happy I did not spend the extra $$$ for sapphire.
In addition to the size difference and sapphire (non-scratch), you also need to take into account the feature difference. The 6 does not have music, no garmin pay, no maps.
If these don't matter then 6 is better with the lower cost. For your workload the Garmin Forerunner 245 or 945 might be better suited since you do get music and pay on those for less. The 6 comes into its own when you add hiking and other activities.
I personally am in the same boat as you (5k runs x 3 times a week). Been using a Garmin vivosmart band for the last year that I bought on FB for $100 since it gave most of the features. Been waiting for a good Fenix or Forerunner deal all this time and just bought the 6X just because of the insane deal.
Cheers mate, definitely want music so the 6 is a no goer
Wow I am sooo tempted but my almost 4yo Fenix 3 is still going strong!
My almost 3yr old forerunner 645 is looking old…
The discounted Fenix 6 pro is looking good too.
I know…. I have a bad feeling I am going to buy it.
Hopefully it will be OOS before I manage to get it :D
Saw these other deals for Rebel -
Do you know whether those prices will be as of tomorrow? Just looking online, only a select few have 50% discount.
Great price. Could not find the 6s pro
