This watch boasts a crisp, 1.3-inch always-on AMOLED display on a watch band that looks more like a real timepiece than what we've come to expect from smartwatches. But it doesn't skimp on the features, if that's something you're concerned about. Its sapphire display and titanium bezel go well with the low-profile watch band, and you've got plenty of fitness and normal smartphone-centric options to choose from when wearing this watch.

It offers 24/7 heart rate, stress, respiration, pulse ox, and sleep monitoring options, as well as built-in sports and fitness apps to keep track of your fitness journey. Plus, it uses the Garmin Coach system to offer assistance with training plans, as well as TopoActive mapping and SkiView maps at over 2,000 ski resorts for all kinds of winter activities.

There's plenty to love about this smart timepiece, especially as it's $500 off right now. If you're serious about tracking workouts and the like but want a reliable watch that can handle it all for you, don't miss out on what will likely be a limited-time deal at Walmart ahead of Black Friday.
