The Apple Watch Series 5 is the best overall smartwatch you can buy right now. If you want something less pricey but still functional and chic, though, you might want to look into Fossil’s lineup of wearables. Amazon is currently holding a

sale on the Fossil Men’s Gen 4 Explorist HR

which lets you in on up to 35% discount.

A variety of style combinations are enjoying discounts at the moment, but the best sale price we’ve seen is for the blue/brown and rose gold/black variants with leather straps. Instead of $350, you can get one today for only $179. Whether you’re looking for a gift or just want to style up your everyday look, don’t pass up the chance to grab the Fossil Explorist HR smartwatch for less than $200.

Steering away from the boxy, techie profile of most smartwatches, Fossil designed the Explorist HR to look like a classic mechanical watch. It flaunts an understated, masculine tone coupled with a luxe build quality that you’ll be proud to show off. The watch works well with casual and formal outfits, but you can always play around with the watch faces and even personalize it with your Instagram or Facebook photos. You’ll never run out of styling options.

Pairing this smartwatch will enable real-time notifications. It will alert you on calls, text messages, weather, apps, and more through a gentle buzz. You can also use it to control your music, manage your calendar, and set custom goals and alarm. The Fossil Explorist HR smartwatch is compatible with both Android (O.S 4.4 and later) and iPhones (iOS 9.3 and up), but the experience can be different. Android users enjoy greater battery life and can respond to messages and answer calls directly from the watch. iOS users, on the other hand, will have to put up with quicker battery draining and non-interactive notifications.

The Fossil Explorist HR is far from being a full-fledged activity tracker, but it has a few fitness-related tricks up its sleeves. It can monitor your running distance through the untethered GPS and can also measure your heart rate automatically during a workout session. For further fitness coaching and recommendations, you may opt to download the Google Fit app.

Dress up your wrist with the fashion and functionality of the Fossil Men’s Gen 4 Explorist HR. Both the blue/brown and rose gold/black models with

leather bands are discounted

on Amazon for only $179.

You shouldn’t have to spend a ton of money to own a great TV. We’re being realistic about this, too, because what we’re not saying is premium and flagship TVs should be less expensive. TV prices have actually come down quite a bit over the last few years, but some of the largest-sized sets can still be pretty expensive. Fortunately, companies like Insignia have got you covered. We came across the following offer while looking through Amazon deals:
