Why fitness-focused shoppers are choosing Garmin watches second-hand

Regardless of whether you’re sticking to your new year’s resolutions, or if they’ve been put on the back burner a bit, there is no time like the present to prioritise your health – and reward yourself with some amazing tech, at the same time. In our fast-paced, data-driven lifestyle, it’s easy to track everything from your steps to sleep to your training stats.
Here’s why buying a Garmin watch (second-hand) from Cash Converters should be the first thing you do. It will keep you on time, on track – and be a fraction of the cost of buying it brand new.
Data-driven lifestyles
If you’re wanting to make healthier choices, a Garmin watch takes the guesswork out of everything. You can track the basics or go down to the granular detail in your health journey with tools and insights to understand your body better. All Garmin watches are sleek and modern, taking you from day to night, exercise to the office, and more. If you feel like you have workouts sorted and only want to use your Garmin watch for meditation, mindful breathing and hydration, that’s an option too.
It’s all about performance
Depending on the Garmin watch that you get and the features that it has, you’ll have access to Body Battery Energy Monitoring™, where you can monitor your energy levels throughout the day. It also tracks stress and you get a sleep score every night. There are also advanced fitness features. Plus, if you pair up your Garmin watch with your Android or Apple smartphone, you receive smart notifications (emails, texts and alerts) to your watch, to keep you up to date on-the-go. There’s even contactless payments and music storage, plus days of battery storage before you need to recharge your Garmin watch. What does that all mean? It’s easier for you to make changes to what you eat, your sleep schedule and how to deal with your stress triggers.
Live life outdoors
With a growing focus on our health, plus our amazing weather in South Africa, there’s no limit to the outdoor sports and hobbies that you can be a part of to better yourself: everything from running, cycling, hiking and swimming to padel, soccer, cricket… even rock climbing. The list is endless. So, get going on your health goals, while the going is good and have added peace of mind. On most Garmin watches, there’s also a safety and tracking option. If your watch senses that an incident has occurred, it will send a message with your live location to up to three of your emergency contacts. Or if you feel unsafe, you can do this manually. What are you waiting for?
