Get This Price

For just $289.99, down from its list price of $299.99. This is the first meaningful discount since the Forerunner 170 launched. The all-time low matches today's price, and the 90-day average sits at $298.94, so this is a genuine dip below the norm.

What You're Getting

The Forerunner 170 is Garmin's lightest GPS running watch with a bright AMOLED touchscreen and physical button controls. Key specs include built-in GPS for accurate pace and distance, wrist-based heart rate monitoring, and up to 10 days of battery life in smartwatch mode (20 hours in GPS mode).

It ships with personalized daily suggested workouts that adapt to your performance and recovery, plus Garmin Coach training plans ranging from beginner run/walk programs to higher-volume plans for experienced runners. The training readiness feature uses sleep quality, recovery load, and HRV status to tell you when you are primed for a productive workout.

Who This Is For

Best for: new runners who want a dedicated GPS watch without paying for features they will not use. This is the entry point into Garmin's running ecosystem, no music storage, no maps, no multisport modes.

If you just need distance, pace, heart rate, and structured workouts. This does it cleanly. Skip it if you want onboard music, Garmin Pay, or advanced training metrics like running power and stamina.

Final Verdict

At $289.99. This is the price to buy if you are starting structured running and want Garmin's coaching tools in the smallest, most affordable watch they make. The discount is modest, but the product has not seen a lower price since launch.
