    Today is Amazon Prime Day, which is basically an excuse for the equivalent of Black Friday/Cyber Monday sales to happen in July for one day…and in this case, one vendor.

    It technically started last night US time (9PM EST), but it continues through till today.  It’s technically for Amazon Prime members only, though I suspect that’s most of America.  But the good news is that it’s also not just an American thing.  Rather – Amazon Prime day extends to other Amazon countries, including those European ones.

    With the goal of keeping this post short and tidy, I’m just going to get right into the deals.  Keep in mind that in almost all cases availability is limited, both in time and quantity.  Like, sometimes just a few minutes or at most a few hours.  You’ll want to jump on a deal you like.

    If you find a Amazon Prime Day deal that’s not listed below that’s sport-tech related, feel free to drop it in the comments!  Or, if you’ve got questions on deals, that’s a good place too.

    US Deals:

    These are from the Amazon US store, but do remember that as of late Amazon.com (US) actually has reasonable international shipping options (they used to suck), so for some purchases it may be worthwhile looking at the numbers.

    Apple Watch Stainless Steal Accessory Band: Starts at 11:15AM EST (unknown discount)

    Fitbit Blaze Smartwatch: Normally $200, now $140

    Fitbit Charge HR replaceable bands: There’s actually a lot of these on Prime Day, this starts at 1:55PM EST

    Fossil Smartwatches: 40% Off all models

    Gamin Fenix 3 GPS Watch: Normally about $499, now $315

    Garmin Fenix 3 Sapphire GPS Watch with leather band: Normally $599, now $399.

    Garmin Fenix 3HR GPS Watch (with optical HR): Normally $550, now $384

    GoPro Hero Session Bundle: Normally $200, now $149

    Polar M200 GPS watch (with optical HR): Normally $149, now $99.

    Polar M400 GPS watch: Normally $169, now $119. Solid deal.

    Scosche Rhythm dual ANT+/BLE HR optical sensor: Normally $79, now $69 – my favorite optical HR sensor.

    Wahoo TICKR HR Strap: 20% off, normally $50, now $40 (deal temporarily ended, scheduled to reappear later today)

    Wahoo TICKR X HR Strap: Normally $79, now $59-$63 depending on hour (I use this strap a ton)

    Wahoo RPM & SPEED dual ANT+/BLE sensors: Scheduled for later today (unknown discount)

    Also of note in the random category, for those that wonder what automated camera I use for my Facebook Live sessions, it’s the Mevo camera which goes on sale at 1:05PM EST (unknown price).  Just today they released a firmware update which adds 4K recording and 1080p streaming to YouTube/Facebook. Woot!

    European Deals:

    I’ll try and find these across the different sites, but sometimes it’s tricky.  Do keep in mind that in most cases you can order on any Amazon Europe site to any other European country.  For example even though I live in France, I can order from Amazon Italy or Amazon UK.  Occasionally there are limitations, but not usually.

    Deal redirecting you to wrong page (geo-redirection)? No problem, just use these country links and then search for the product name: UK based here! Canada! Germany! France! Spain! Italy!

    DJI Mavic Drone Sorta-Combo Pack: Down to 1099EUR, normally 1,293EUR (Amazon France) – it’s a solid deal, and what I use (Amazon France and Amazon Germany). Note this is not the normal combo pack, but a variation on that theme with 2 batteries instead of three, and not the car charger (but does have the charging hub). It’s not clear if it has the carrying bag.

    Do note that for European Amazon pricing, sometimes the ‘normally’ price isn’t super accurate, as that’s the list price that’s never usually used in Europe.  But I’m not going to try and track all the street prices everywhere across all these countries – so, your mileage may vary.

    With that – thanks for reading, and thanks for supporting the site via the links above!  Also, if you plan to purchase anything else on Amazon today (like, a car), using the link at the top (the big Amazon Prime picture) helps the site out, no matter what you purchase after that point.
