We're just minutes away from the potential unveiling of the Apple Watch 9. While I do expect to see deals on the Apple Watch 9 relatively fast, here's one smartwatch deal you don't have to wait for.

For a limited time, Garmin is knocking up to $400 off select devices during its massive birthday sale. If you're looking for the best Garmin watch, the sale includes deals on the Venue, epix, Forerunner, and vivomove series of watches. It's one of the biggest Garmin deals we've seen in months.

Garmin Forerunner 945: was $499 now $349 @ Garmin
The Garmin Forerunner 945 is designed for triathletes, trail runners, and other endurance sports fanatics. The Forerunner 945 offers the same training and recovery metrics as the Forerunner 245 and 745 while adding metrics for tracking heat and altitude, which are important for determining the difficulty of a key workout. In our Forerunner 955 review we said the Editor's Choice watch is great if you need a GPS watch that will go the distance. Note that Amazon has a slightly lower price, but it's sold via a third party merchant.
Price match: $349 @ Best Buy | $338 @ Amazon
