Amazon discounts this Fossil Sport smartwatch by $96 for Columbus Day

By

When it comes to smartwatches, the Apple Watch is more often than not the first thing that comes to mind. Fossil may be regarded as a traditional watch brand but that doesn’t mean it can’t keep up with the latest tech trends as the company has every kind of watch for men and women at multiple price points to match customers’ style, desired function, and budget. If you’re after a wearable you can take to the gym, Amazon has a hot deal for Columbus Day that lets you in on $96 worth of savings on the

Fossil Women’s Sport smartwatch.

Usually priced at $275, Ladies everywhere are in for a treat at just $179.

There is no reason to fret if lime green just isn’t your color as the Fossil Sport is available in five other color schemes for only $20 more, and you can always opt to switch out the silicone strap with other 18mm bands. Moreover, you can also make it more you by customizing the watch face with your favorite photo. Those with small wrists will appreciate that Fossil went for a compact design that is 40% lighter than any other model with an aluminum case. Its 1.2-inch digital OLED display boasts a pixel resolution of 390 x 390 pixels fitted into a 41mm case which makes for a colorful screen with limited brightness under direct sunlight but it is no less of an optimal choice for those headed to the gym scoring a 4-out-of-5 star rating on our review.

Since this is a fitness-focused watch, the Fossil Sport not only has an untethered GPS and built-in heart rate monitor to boot but is also swimproof with water resistance to 5 ATM. You are instantly equipped to track distance, fine-tune workouts according to your beats per minute, and keep tabs on steps and calories burned. Activity tracking is facilitated by the Google Fit app along with health coaching and goal-setting in the form of Move minutes and Heart Points.
