A whopping 33% saving on the Quatix 7, a watch I’d buy full price? Yes indeed! What a great deal for Black Friday.
\nI\u2019m a huge fan of wearable tech, though I haven\u2019t always been. I was a sceptic until I tried some smart watches and the Quatix 7 was a real game changer for me.
\nYou see, what I really need is a personal assistant to guide my day and keep me on track. But I can\u2019t actually afford a real human to body double me all day every day, so the Quatix 7 is the next best thing. At $399 that\u2019s much cheaper than a personal assistant and you\u2019ll only need to charge it every couple of weeks!

\nThe Quatix 7 is a fantastic piece of kit for anyone who loves sport and specifically sport that involves being on and around water. But it is an all round genius wearable that allows a huge range of monitoring activities, including your health as well as practical functions to control and interact with marine tech.

I\u2019d buy this at full price, so 19% off is a really decent deal for this high level model.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve had my Quatix 7 for over a year now and before that a Quatix 6, as with most of the best Garmin watches, it enables you to connect to your phone for call alerts, message notifications, to control music playback, for contactless payments, for map navigation.
\nAs someone with ADHD I need reminding to drink water and reminders for all of my meetings and appointments. I need to see certain messages that pop in and I need about 6 alarms to wake me up in a morning, but quietly by gently buzzing my wrist.
\nI can reject phone calls that come in directly from my Quatix 7 (because who answers a phone first ring these days?) and I can track every kind of activity I do. Coastal rowing is a passion, alongside road cycling and obviously sailing too, each one has specific metrics it can track and share via Strava.
\nBut the Quatix 7 can also track my dance moves, so when I\u2019m dopa-mining with some 70s disco to help me build up the resilience for my next boring task that my brain absolutely refuses to engage with (taxes anyone?) well, it tracks that too and gives me little mini rewards as the day goes on.
\nI have two boats and I live in two time zones. It handles that superbly and when the barometer drops too quickly, it gives me a heads up warning of a storm coming. It always has the tides for multiple regions just a glance away too. So I\u2019m never left guessing.
\nI might have a brain the size of a small planet, but I do forget where I park my van at the airport, so a dropped pin and the return navigation GPS feature is also pretty neat. The MOB feature is also excellent for helping navigate back to a person or pet in the water (thankfully I\u2019ve not needed this for anything other than training).
\nIf you love boats, go sailing, do any kind of sporting activity, need help managing your ADHD traits or are on the autistic spectrum, a genius smart watch like this can be an absolute game changer for you.
\nFor the next few days I\u2019m keeping a very close eye on the Black Friday deals and will let you all know when more great Black Friday Garmin watch deals arrive.
