Garmin's Fenix 7X Pro Sapphire Solar stands out as a large, rugged fitness watch with offline maps, basic smartwatch features, and excellent battery life. The 51 mm size is the biggest talking point, with the thickness and weight making it feel oversized for smaller wrists and less comfortable under sleeves or for sleep tracking. Pricing has also been volatile, with coupon codes and checkout discounts sometimes lowering the total, while shipping can be slow. It is a strong fit if you want a big Garmin and do not mind the bulk.

  • The checkout experience reportedly shows no tax when paying with FSA funds through TrueMed.

  • Coupon code FALL reportedly worked and can lower the checkout price further.

  • The watch supports offline maps while offering basic smartwatch features for fitness and health tracking.

  • The battery life reportedly stands out as incredible, and the model is a non-OLED Garmin option.

  • The 51mm size reportedly feels comically large and can be too heavy or uncomfortable for some wrists.

  • Deal pricing reportedly fluctuates after purchase, including brief increases to around $599 before returning to the advertised price.

  • Order fulfillment reportedly takes a long time, with no shipping notice after about two weeks.

  • The watch thickness reportedly makes it difficult to wear with dress sleeves or jackets and can catch on doorways.

Don't think you can actually use an FSA unless it's prescribed by your doctor, which would need a letter for medical necessity

You are correct it does qualify for FSA but it needs to go through your doctor. Good luck if you ever get audited without that recommendation.

They are partners with truemed that will ask you a medical survey. They will then review with a doctor and provide you with medically necessity letter which you can prove your fsa provider.

Here is the link how it works.

Can't beat this for the price if you're looking for a large fitness/health tracker with offline maps and basic smart watch features

A couple of caveats:

This will take a long time to ship. I ordered one 2 weeks ago already (October 6) and I still haven't received a shipping notice. Not sure if your order will get fulfilled or not or how long it will end up taking.

Paying with TrueMed means that you might not be able to pay with your normal credit card for purchase protection, extended warranty, return protection, etc. Yes it's an option to use credit card and reimburse, but it's risky. Because if you do, then you have to go through the manual reimbursement process with your FSA/HSA provider instead and they'll most likely deny it.

They charge 20% restocking fee + return shipping on Garmin. Fenix 7X is a very big watch and it's honestly too big for everyone unless you're fairly overweight or are very muscular. Most endurance athletes are pretty skinny. I bought a 51mm Epix from another deal and it's way too big for my wrist at 16.5cm. I'm actually returning it because it's also too heavy and uncomfortable to wear, plus I can't wear it for sleep tracking because it's very uncomfortable. If it's comfortable for you and you don't care about your watch being oversized, then it might be a good deal.

Because of this I'd probably wait around a bit for another retailer to clearance a Fenix 7 Pro Sapphire or Epix Pro Sapphire 47mm. It has happened before, there were Epix Pro Sapphire 47mm refurb for under $400 during Amazon's early October sale.

Would this be too big for a wrist size of 16.5cm?

51mm is comically large. Not sure why they make these flagship watches so big. If you got a medium to small wrist you should probably not buy this since there is a restocking fee.

Almost bought it until i checked the size. 51 X 51 is the size. Samsung Ultra which is of 46mm itself is kinda big for my wrist. This will be like a wall clock on my hand.

Using your Govx will bring it down a bit lower at checkout.
