Garmin’s Quatix 7X Solar watch is packed with features that’ll make your time on the water all the more enjoyable. From the autopilot mode for easy navigation to its waypoint marking, you’ll never feel more in control.

 

While the bulk of Garmin’s smartwatches look pretty clunky, it does offer a few that are sleek, looking more like timepieces that you can actually wear out to an event and have them look elegant. The Quatix is one such model that delivers, looking sharp as ever, while still providing all the features you’d expect from a Garmin.

Of course, this model comes in with a price tag that’s well above what you’d expect, costing an eye-watering $1,100. Luckily, if you’ve got your heart set on this model, we’re happy to share that Prime Day has now dropped a serious discount, knocking $500 off for a very limited time.

One of the best looking Garmin smartwatches

Sure, this Garmin smartwatch looks good, but it’s also built with a purpose. Not only can it handle the usual stuff Garmin smartwatches are known for, but you also get features that cater to those that go boating. Yes, the Quatix series can connect with boats equipped with compatible hardware, and you can even take control of the boat from your watch if needed.

As you can imagine, that’s quite impressive, and shocking. All the boats metrics come straight to the watch, including but not limited to water depth, engine RPMs, wind, and more. The watch can even keep you aware of your location with access to BlueChart g3 coastal charts and LakeVü g3 inland maps.

In addition, the watch can provide access to Topo maps, maps for golf courses, ski resorts, and keep your position in check with no matter where you are. It really is built for all types of scenarios. The best part is that battery life is quite good with up to 28 days just from the internal battery. You can even squeeze out more use when charging from solar, with the watch reaching up to an additional nine days of use in total.

The Quatix also has a wide range of sensors to keep track of your health and wellness metrics. It can also keep you connected with your messages and calls with notifications to the wrist. Of course, that might seem quite basic when compared to all the other stuff it can do. But to say the least, this watch is absolutely impressive.

It’s high price tag is worth it if you can squeeze everything out of it. But thanks to the steep discount, you really won’t have to. The $500 price point is more than fair, and the watch delivers by going above and beyond what you’d expect.
