In the fall of 2023, I was running hard up a hill in Portugal. Reaching the top of the scrub, I was greeted by a stunning view of a pure azure sea. But I was slightly distracted from the view: I was reviewing the Coros Pace 3 running watch, and I was amazed at how such a good fitness tracker could be so cheap.
It's just gotten even cheaper. Right now you can get the Coros Pace 3 for $199 at Amazon US (was $249) and £199 at Amazon UK (was £219).
Today's best Coros Pace 3 Black Friday deals
Coros Pace 3 (nylon band): was US$249 now US$199 at AmazonRead moreRead less▼US deal: Save $50 on the Coros Pace 3. It's an excellent fitness tool, with up to 23 days of battery life thanks to its low-power MIP screen (which is being slowly phased out these days), accurate GPS and route planner in the corresponding Coros app. It's super-light too, to the point you'll forget you're wearing it.

View DealIn my Coros Pace 3 review, I said "this light running watch is better value than many Garmins" and two years on, I stand by that statement. I even said I'd be setting an alert for this watch in the Black Friday deals earlier this month, and lo and behold, it's come up.
It's long-lasting with an outstanding battery life, handles swim-tracking and stroke counts perfectly well (I tested it, again, in Portugal, where it held up in my stroke-counting tests). My one gripe is that it's a training watch, not a smartwatch: if you're expecting to take calls on-wrist or handle any more than basic notifications, you'll be disappointed and may prefer a Garmin. But at this price, it's hard to have any complaints.
Still not sure? We've picked out some similarly-priced Garmin alternatives below.
More Black Friday Garmin watch deals
Garmin Forerunner 165: was US$249 now US$199.99 at AmazonRead moreRead less▼US deal: While I personally don't think the 165 is as good a deal as the Coros Pace 3, it's still a great deal at this price if you want an AMOLED smart/training watch hybrid. It features lots of advanced running features like race-adaptive training plans. The training plan on your watch will automatically adjust depending on your performance – for example, if you're doing better than expected, it'll recommend longer distances or faster runs. How cool is that?

Garmin Vivoactive 5: was US$249.99 now US$199.99 at Best BuyRead moreRead less▼US deal: The Garmin Vivoactive 5 is ideal for joggers, cyclists and gym-goers looking for a cheaper Garmin watch that can also act as an Apple Watch alternative. It's very light and comfortable to wear, has great fitness tracking features, and is more suitable for slimmer wrists and office-wear than big, chunky adventure watches.

Garmin Forerunner 165: was £249 now £169.99 at ArgosRead moreRead less▼UK deal: The Garmin Forerunner 165 is slightly cheaper than the Coros at this price, so you're going to have to weigh up whether you'd rather an AMOLED screen and Garmin's smart training plans over Coros' incredible battery life.

A good gift for hikers and outdoorsy people.
