Whether you’re heading out on a tough trail or taking a plunge in a cold water swim, you need a watch that’s durable and isn’t going to crumble at the first hurdle— the Garmin Instinct 2X Solar is that watch. Built to US military standards for water, thermal and shock resistance, it’s ready to take on any adventure and right now it’s got $100 off at Amazon.

Other adventure-ready features include a built-in LED flashlight, ABC sensors, trackback routing, and not forgetting its sun-powered face, which only needs three hours of direct sunlight exposure per day for infinite battery life (when in smartwatch mode).

But the Instinct X2 Solar is more than just a rugged outdoor watch, it’s a fully-fledged multisport watch too. It’s packed with several sport modes— from indoor climbing to skiing, obstacle racing, HIIT and more— keeps on top of all your health metrics, has Garmin Pay and you can get all your texts and calls delivered straight to your wrist with smart notifications.

You can also snap it up at this price in a range of different colours too, including Flame Red, Moss and Whitestone. If we were you, we wouldn’t sit on this one too long.
