Not all Garmin watches are created equally, and for long adventures in the backcountry, you'll want something rugged, weather-resistant, and with a long battery life. Enter the new Garmin Instinct 3 Solar, which you can currently pick up for only $349.99 at Amazon. That's a healthy savings of $50 off the regular list price for this tough watch, which only came out in January and has already earned itself a 4.2-star rating from customers.
The Garmin Instinct 3 was built with the wilderness in mind and is built with a super tough metal-reinforced bezel for expeditions that take you up against ice and rock, plus it's got that all-important built-in flashlight for navigating on the trails after dark.
Speaking of navigation, a 3-axis compass, barometric altimeter, and multi-band GPS with SatIQ technology deliver superior positioning when you're trying to find your way in the wild. These features also optimize battery life, which is one of the big stories with the Instinct 3 Solar. Thanks to solar charging, this watch can go three weeks without needing to be plugged into an outlet, making it ideal for thru-hiking and travel.
This deal applies to the Solar edition with 45mm case, but stocks are flying off the shelves, so don't delay.
