Garmin Fenix 6 Pro Black, $315, free shipping st Bike Closet $314.99

Bike Closet has the Garmin Fenix 6 Pro in Black [bikecloset.com] for $349.99. Adding to cart will save you another 10% bringing it down to $314.99. A few places seem to have the $350 price drop. Bike Closet was the only place I saw with the extra 10% off, saving another $35.

Picked up my non pro from them. No complaints. Shipping is free. Of course there is tax now. At the very least, the Pro adds maps and music to the basic Fenix, two things I didn't need. My only real complain is Im finding Garmin's sleep tracking is a step below Polar's. Have a Grit X, and wearing one on each arm, my sleep stats are consistently better with Polar with about double the rem and deep sleep Garmin is telling me. If the Garmin was accurate, I'd feel like crap every day and should never work out because every day would be a recovery day. 🙄

Basic description.

Add mapping, music, intelligent pace Planning and more to your workouts with the Fenix 6 Pro. Designed for all-day wearability, these rugged devices put advanced training status, running and cycling dynamics and environmentally adjusted Vo2 Max estimates right at your fingertips. Plus, a first-of-its-kind pacepro feature helps keep your pacing strategy on track, providing grade-adjusted guidance as you run a course. You'll have preloaded topo maps and ski maps for more than 2,000 worldwide ski resorts. Other highlights include enhanced wrist heart rate (The data and information provided by these devices is intended to be a close estimation of your activity and metrics tracked, but may not be precisely accurate), smart notifications (when paired with a compatible smartphone), pulse ox (this is not a medical device and is not intended for use in the diagnosis or monitoring of any medical condition) sensing and Garmin Pay contact less payments (not all countries and payment networks are eligible). To maximize on-wrist use time, customizable power Manager modes let you see and control how various settings and sensors impact battery life.

Best thing I did was move away from Fenix recently with a plastic 53g Forerunner 955. Could never sleep with the what heavy 80g+ Fenix despite loving the steel frame look.

It is a tad clunky compared to my 735xt, but I like the style and haven't had issues sleeping. And at the time, I paid $200 for the Fenix 6 from this place. Couldn't touch a 955 for double that early this year,or currently for that matter. So I'll take that trade off.

I'll wait until the 955 has a renewed deal going on before I jump to it. Or maybe the 745 which was still $100 more than the Fenix 6.

I agree with that for sleeping since the 955 is lighter than Fenix but the 955 is no small watch in its own right either compared to most other fitness watches. Side by side my Fenix 3 HR stands just as tall as my 955 but the Fenix is bigger in length and width and has a much wider strap. I do find the 955 easier to move around with while sleeping and it doesn't catch on bedding as easily.

They also have 30% off of all non-discounted electronics with code Fallspecial30.

I'm only seeing a 5% discount ($17.50) in cart. Is there a discount code that drops 10% off?

I believe this model is non-Sapphire glass. So it's not suitable for rugged environments unless you have a protective over on the watchface.

Looks like they changed it. Yesterday, page said additional 10% off. Now says only an additional 5%

Still cheaper than sites charging the same basic price. Unless there are CB sites to be used. Wasn't seeing any though when I searched.

Yeah definitely not a sleeping watch. I can't even use it as a daily driver. I bought the Instinct for that. Fenix is my training watch.

What do you people do in your sleep? I have a Polar Grit X and a Fenix 6. Not the largest wrists either. Have no problem sleeping.

quick FYI:
Grabbed one for an early Xmas&Bday gift for my BIL from recoveryforathletes .com
Same deal for the 6/6X Pro for the same price and 5% off and free shipping, but no tax (at least for CA) Chase paypal 5%CB helps round it out.

That's why they make a titanium model. I don't even feel it on my wrist.

You guys need to hit the gym if complaining about the weight of a watch on your wrist.

Why didn't this deal get better reception? Is the site shady? This is an all-time low for the Fenix 6 Pro.
