If you spend a lot of time on the water, go on a lot of outdoor adventures, or just want a smartwatch that can handle your spontaneous lifestyle, Garmin's marine watches are as good as it gets. The only problem? They're expensive. Like, four-figure expensive.

That's a 50% discount or $550 in savings. It's also the lowest price we've tracked for this model.) But you'd better hurry: This is an Amazon Lightning Deal, and you only have a few hours left to grab it before the timer expires and the price goes back up.

This watch is designed specifically for boating and marine use. It connects with compatible Garmin chartplotters and lets you remotely control features like chart zoom, your Fusion stereo, and autopilot right from your wrist. You also get tide data right on the watch face, plus built-in alarms to notify you of an anchor drag or imminent tide changes.

Even if you aren't on a boat, it works as a full-featured multi-sport watch on land. It comes with a scratch-resistant Power Sapphire lens that uses solar charging to extend your battery life, along with both traditional physical buttons and a touchscreen interface so you can still navigate menus with wet hands or gloves.
