The Samsung Galaxy Watch Active is geared toward those leading an active lifestyle. It automatically tracks up to six exercises and is capable of tracking up to 39 more and monitoring sleep and stress. The watch syncs with your phone and Galaxy Buds and is compatible with Android and iOS.

Smartwatches are one of the most popular tech items around. With so many different brands and types of smartwatches, it can be difficult to know if you are getting a deal or not. Amazon has Buy Now which makes getting a deal on a smartwatch a no-brainer.

The Samsung Galaxy Watch Active is built to military standards and is water and dust resistant. The water resistance is a great feature for swimmers as you can wear it swimming and it will track your laps. Dust resistance is great for running or any other outdoor activities.

As with other smartwatches, the Samsung Galaxy Watch Active has the main features of your smartphone: Calendar, text messages, calling, etc. What sets this watch apart from its competitors is the fact that it is designed to compete with other fitness wearables. Thus, the ability of this watch automatically switches into sleep mode or automatically begins tracking activity is a major plus.

Many users have noted that they miss the rotating bezel that is a main feature of the Samsung Galaxy Watch but that is notably missing from the Active model. Because the user interface is designed to be used with that rotating bezel, its absence on this model is noticeable. However, if you’ve never owned a Samsung Galaxy Watch and are looking for a great smartwatch that doubles as an activity tracker, you will not miss the rotating bezel.

The Samsung Galaxy Watch Active is also significantly smaller than the Samsung Galaxy Watch which most users seem to like. It is reportedly more comfortable to sleep with and many users report forgetting that it is even there. This is a plus for an item that you will be wearing around the clock.

Luxury watch brand Movado has a smart watch — it’s over $350 below retail price today
A Movado Bold Motion smart watch with a metal band, seen from the side, has a small circular Jomashop watermark.

Smart watches are fascinating ways to track our sleep, health, and fitness and make an interesting use of the wrist slot on our body in a world where the time is more available than ever. But we can criticize even the best smartwatches for looking a bit too techy. That is, if you want something that looks more traditional and fear looking too health-conscious, a smartwatch is seemingly not for you.

Fortunately, we're seeing an increasing interest in hybrid smartwatches — watches that use old world style with modern day tech. And, sometimes, they get a pretty good sale. Take the Movado Bold Motion in stainless steel that we're now seeing on Jomashop. It retails for $795, but they're selling it for just $442. That's a discount of $353, or around 44% off. Tap the button below to see and buy the watch or keep reading to learn about all of its details.

A smartwatch that’s determined to improve your golf game is $100 off today
A trio of Garmin Approach S62 smart watches.

Most smartwatches are made to help you understand your body's performance in a wide variety of sports and activities. Many of the best smartwatches brag about the number of sports modes, giving numbers like "150" or "400+" to show the wide range of activities you can do with the watch. But, truth be told, we all know that a jack of all trades can easily be mistaken for a master of none.

That's why we think you'll be interested in this deal on the Garmin Approach S62. It's a GPS golf watch that acts as a virtual caddie and constant companion during your golf game while also tracking steps and giving you a good look at your overall fitness. It's usually $500, but you can get one on Amazon for just $400 today, saving you $100. This deal is likely somewhat related to the watch being discontinued for newer models by Garmin, so be sure to buy it now if you want it — this deal could very well sell out.
