Garmin Forerunner® 170 Music on sale for $299.99

$50 below where this usually sits.

Most running watches hold their price for months and rarely budge until a new model shows up. The Forerunner 170 Music is the exception this week, with Amazon cutting it to $299.99. That is $50 off the $349.99 list price, and it sits below the $335.23 it has averaged over the last 30 days.

Garmin Forerunner® 170 Music drops to $299.99 - save $50. This is the lowest price on record for the watch, undercutting its previous $305.99 floor and landing $45.08 below the 90-day average of $345.07.

Get This Deal

The 180-day average sits at $346.44, which means this watch has spent most of the year pinned near its list price. For just $299.99, down from its list price of $349.99, you are paying less than at any point since it launched.

What You're Getting

Garmin built this one for runners who want real training tools without a heavy smartwatch. The Garmin Coach plans adapt to your performance and recovery, ranging from beginner run/walk workouts up to higher-volume plans for experienced runners. The quick workout feature lets you build a session on the watch by picking a time and intensity level. Training readiness pulls sleep quality, recovery, training load, and HRV status into a single call on whether you are primed to push or should back off.

Who This Is For

Best for runners stepping up from a basic fitness tracker, or anyone training for a first race who wants GPS pacing and structured plans. The 10-day smartwatch battery and 20-hour GPS runtime cover most training weeks without a nightly charge.

If you already run with a higher-end Forerunner, this is a lateral move, not an upgrade.

Final Verdict

The 14% cut takes this watch to its lowest recorded price, and the adaptive coaching plus training readiness give entry-level runners more than the price suggests. Buyers who want a dependable GPS running watch with music and multi-day battery should move on this one now.
