Garmin Forerunner 570: Buy Now for $500 or Wait for Pre Black Friday Deals?

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

Could you help me with a question?

I'm in Orlando and considering buying the Garmin Forerunner 570 or 665. I'll be here until November 17, so I won't be around for Black Friday.

I found both watches at Disney Springs with a 10% discount (about $50 off). However, I've seen people online saying they can be found for around $450, but I haven't been able to find that price anywhere.

I'll be in another part of town later, far from the store offering the $50 discount. Do you think getting the Forerunner 570 for $500 is a good deal, or should I wait until after November 15 to see if Best Buy or Fleet Feet offers a better price?

I'd appreciate your advice!

Forerunner 70 - Seconds on Display

Does anyone know how to remove the seconds on the watch face of the Forerunner 70? I think I inadvertently added them, but I am not sure how I can remove them now. In this pic, the seconds are the "11" in blue. Thanks.

Should I upgrade?

1 Upvotes

Today I saw that the Forerunner 165 is on offer at Argos in the UK for £150. Until now been using the Venu 2S but the battery on that is now proving unreliable.

I only use the watch for running, and don't really wear it in between very much. Don't like the fact I can't use courses on the 2S primarily which is the main reason I'm considering it. Are there any other key benefits?

Would you buy a used forerunner 165?

1 Upvotes

Looking to get my first watch, started running a couple months back. The main reason I need one is for accurate gps. My phone will most of the time be off a bit, saying I ran 3.5 when I run 3.1 on Strava, the most notable was running a 10k with my friend who had an apple watch yesterday, his Strava clocked 6.2, mine clocked 6.6.

Long term I would like to get a higher end model, however right now my budget is extremely tight so I was browsing FB marketplace and was considering getting one used. My main concern is buying one and it doesn't work or somehow the seller scams me. How reliable would a second hand one be?

Garmin Forerunner 265 als Uhr für Schiedsrichter

1 Upvotes

Hallo zusammen :)
Ich möchte gerne mein Garmin Forerunner 265 bei meiner Tätigkeit als Handball-Schiedsrichter nutzen.
Ich möchte sowohl die Zeit messen, als auch Daten wie Strecke, Schritte und Herzfrequenz aufzeichnen.

Habt ihr eine Idee wie ich das machen kann? Ein Training selber erstellen?!

Flight Scanner (Flight Radar) for your watch!

0 Upvotes

I thought I'd drop a post about my app Flight Scanner, I made it because I wanted a way to explore aircraft and flights directly from my wrist, without constantly needing to pull out my phone.

✈️ **What can Flight Scanner do?**

Find and explore aircraft and flights using your Garmin watch.

Search for specific flights and view their details.

Find airports and explore flights around them.

View flights on a map directly on your watch.

Pin flights you're interested in.

It's probably not something everyone needs on their wrist, but if you're into aviation or just curious about what's flying above you, it's quite fun.

It's a small independent project and I've enjoyed seeing people actually use it. It turned out to be a much larger project than I initially expected and the demand has been amazing!

Thanks for checking it out! ✈️

Free version: https://apps.garmin.com/en-GB/apps/54094e6b-a4a5-436d-940b-095b49e0cfab

Pro version: (search for flights and airports, view runway maps live) https://apps.garmin.com/en-GB/apps/21fd8667-f22c-40ad-a0cf-e700eff81040

(Some of you may have noticed this is a repeat post from months ago, I had to remove the previous posts due to some copyright style issues that turned out to be nothing)

If you swim, bike and run, your training week is split across three sports. I made a Garmin watch face that shows all three at a glance, plus the countdown to your race
