If you’re looking for something more affordable, Garmin is also offering discounts for its Instinct Solar range. It features a two-window monochrome display and has a rugged exterior that’s built to US MIL-STD 810 standards. It also supports solar charging as the name suggests. As a smartwatch, it can last up to 24 days on a single charge and Garmin claims that you can stretch it for another 30 days if it is charged via solar 3 hours per day with certain conditions. In terms of GPS usage, it can last up to 30 hours and you could gain up to 8 hours extra through solar charging.

The tactical version of the Instinct Solar.

The Instinct Solar Tactical variant features the same specs as the Instinct Solar with two additional tactical features – stealth mode and night vision mode. Stealth mode cuts off all GPS positioning and wireless connectivity while Night Vision will adjust the screen brightness so that it is visible with night vision goggles on.

The Forerunner 245 series features a 1.2-inch display with 240 x 240 pixels.

The standard Forerunner 245 can last up to 7 days in smartwatch mode and it offers up to 24 hours of GPS usage.
