I’ve been testing Garmin watches for over 10 years, and one piece of advice I give almost anyone looking to buy one is to consider older models. New Garmins cost a lot of money, and older watches that have most of the same features are much more likely to appear in sales.
There is a limit to that, though, and going back two generations to a watch like the Garmin Forerunner 255 does mean that you will be missing out on a lot of new features and design upgrades.
