Good price for a great multi-sports watch. The price for the 46mm, non-music version in slate gray is $299.00: https://www.amazon.com/Garmin-For...B09WTP57Z5

With the release of the Forerunner 265 it is possible that this model will go even lower. But maybe not!

Full retail is $350, so a 14% discount? Not that slick. I've seen $320 for the 255 Music, which was still not great, but more of a deal.

Yeah, I hear ya. ...Garmin... I don't have access to Blue365 so this is pretty much as good as it gets for me. I run with my phone and am not interested in music on my watch.

I think this is the best price you are going to find right now. The Instinct 2 deal at Costco is probably a better value but it is missing a few things that are runner specific. Also for some the screen is a deal breaker.

They just might. Garmin's lineup is getting pretty dense. I have a theory that Garmin will move the price point on the 255 down $50 to make the bump for AMOLED consistent across the 265 and the 965. However the battery on my 45 is fading so I went with this deal now.
