This story is part of Amazon Prime Day, CNET’s guide on everything you need to know and how to make sure you get the best deal.
Update, Oct. 15: Amazon’s Prime Day sale officially ended at midnight PT. We’re keeping track of the best Prime Day deals still available, however, and we’ve identified the best Walmart “Big Save” deals, which remain available through the end of today.
Amazon Prime Day has officially ended, but some deals have remained. Rivals of the retail giant, including Best Buy, Target and Walmart, also have some big sales this week. Wearables from tech’s biggest brands Apple and Samsung are included.
Some deals that remain on Amazon include slashed prices on wearables such as the Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 and Garmin running watches. Although there are several great deals to choose from, what you won’t see deep discounts on is the Apple Watch: We’re only seeing price drops between $15 and $30 on some models, but those are really just a continuation of “everyday low prices” that have been typical for weeks.
Keep reading to see the best smartwatch deals we’ve found so far on Amazon. We’ll keep updating this story regularly.

Full disclosure: This is only $15 off — holding a discount that was live before Prime Day — and it’s only on a single color in the lineup. But this is the latest and greatest Apple Watch Series 6, released just last month. We’re only seeing discounts on models with the red and white bands for now.

If you’re looking for a more budget-friendly Apple Watch, the Apple Watch Series 3 is your best bet. It’s swim-proof and comes with GPS tracking and a heart-rate sensor. This, too, is the same discount that’s been found on this model for months. But at $169, you’ll save $30 versus what you’d pay at the Apple Store.

TicWatch
This is the largest discount to date on the vastly improved TicWatch, which magically incorporates both an LCD for long battery life (up to 30 days) and an AMOLED for glorious color when you want it.
Other notable specs include built-in GPS and NFC, full-time heart-rate monitoring, loads of fitness features, sleep-tracking and so on. The watch runs Wear OS by Google.

If you’re looking to upgrade to a touchscreen watch, the Fitbit Versa 2 has much to offer. It has a battery that lasts for days and doubles as a fitness tracker. Originally priced at $180, the Fitbit Versa 2 is down to $128 for Prime Day. That’s the lowest price we’ve seen to date. Just be aware there’s a newer Versa 3 model (although that one isn’t on sale today).

The golf watch comes preloaded with more than 41,000 courses from around the world with a feature that allows manual pin positioning for measuring distances to the front, middle and back of the green. For Prime Day, the watch is $200, so you’ll save $82.
