Looking at getting a Garmin Fenix 5X and wondered if there are any good places with deals on.
Cheers

Keep an eye on hotdealsuk, blacks seem to do very good, but short lived deals.

I can find one for 10% but not 15%, any hints?

CTC or National Trust memberships gets you a 15% Cotswold discount but only off of the full price.
It’s getting close to Black Friday so there’s a chance Garmin themselves will do something. I got a virb a few years ago for 30% off.

might be worth ringing up customer services, they are quite helful when I got them to price match after buying.

Yeah looking at the Garmin Vivoactive 3, whichever code i try only gives 10% off @ Cotswold outdoor, may be a restriction on electronics?

If you fancy an expensive item try joining the British Triathlon Federation; check the membership details but if they still include it they used to offer 25% off the Garmin website. Actually worked out at great value for an item for me a few years ago. You also save the £5 per triathlon entry for the BTF day race rate - if that is your thing!

I e-mailed cotswold and got the following response:

The supplier, Garmin, has requested that we only allow for a 10% discount on their products which means that unfortunately we’ll be unable to apply your full discount at this time. Under the product details states ‘No further offers or discounts apply’ to make customers aware that actually no discount should actually be applied, however we wanted to give the 10% leeway to our customers as a gesture of good will.

Got my garmin 735xt from Blacks as they price match and beat by 10% off. So if you find it somewhere else, look on Blacks website if it’s there call Blacks and ask for their price match deal, but item must be identical (colour, HR strap, accessories etc etc). Saved me about £60

There are lots of Vivoactive 3 watches on ebay listed as new but unboxed in the UK, a good £50 cheaper than anywhere else. I can't understand why a seller would have 10+ of these watches new but without boxes, seems dodgy.

Would love a Vivoactive 3 but def wouldn't buy one unboxed from eBay! Def dodgy.

Really pleased with mine but there again it did come boxed from Amazon.

I can wholeheartedly recommend them.

I've had the original VA and now on the VA HR, i'm looking for the 3 though as it just looks more like a normal watch which is my only gripe about the VAHR.
