There are some fantastic Black Friday Garmin deals around this year, but not all the offers are quite what they seem. We often hear news stories about products being more expensive on Black Friday than they were earlier in the year, and sadly that's the case with a few of this year's Garmin watch deals at Amazon.
Amazon's offers this year are generally good, but its discounts on the Tacticx 7 series aren't as good as they look. Although $200 off the list price sounds great at first, all of these watches (the standard, Pro and Pro Ballistics Edition) have been cheaper before. In fact, the Ballistics Edition was over $100 less in July.
It's not all bad news though, and Amazon does have some genuinely great deals on Garmin tech, including the entire Fenix 7 series. Below I've listed three of the best deals from this year's Black Friday sale, or you can check out my full list of the best Black Friday Garmin deals for more options.
Garmin deals to avoid
Amazon has knocked $200 off the Garmin Tactix 7 series for Black Friday 2023, but its deals were more generous earlier in the year. If you really want a Tactix (they're great watches after all), I recommend sitting tight and waiting for prices to drop lower.
Garmin deals to grab
There are some genuinely great deals at Amazon this Black Friday and if you're looking for a watch similar to the Tactix 7, these Fenix 7 variants are all similar, and have never been cheaper before.
