You don't have to wait for Prime Day to get a great deal on a running watch – the feature-packed Garmin Forerunner 255 has just dropped to a record low price of £245.11 at Amazon, and you don't need to be a Prime member to get it.
I test a lot of sports watches, and the Forerunner 255 ranks up there with the best. When I reviewed it, I called it "an excellent watch if you want to take your training to the next level," with its excellent GPS accuracy and daily workout suggestions standing out as particular highlights. My colleague Matt Kollat at T3.com agreed, calling it "an important milestone in multisport watch evolution" and awarding it a full five stars.
