This is a solid deal if the Vivoactive will work for you. I had a couple issues with my Epix Gen 2 47mm: It is big, and while I usually love that, I can't sleep with it on because it's bulky. And... It tore up my dress shirt sleeve cuffs. I've really liked having the Vivoactive and haven't missed much of anything. It is much more comfortable to sleep in, solid battery life, overall does everything I need. Although it doesn't look quite as premium, it is discreet and basically goes unnoticed, which I'm fine with. I also did 5 runs wearing both and the distances were both extremely consistent and within a percent of each other and HR with a couple percent. Very happy with mine and this price is great.
just want to point out the best value in any Garmin will always be when they hit "factory refurbished" because they are virtually new, often completely unused
so unless you are giving as a gift, wait for it (will be under $200)
my only problem with the vivoactive line is I really want all five buttons as a runner which means either fenix or forerunner only (so you never have to look at the screen and can even turn touchscreen off during the activity so you don't get phantom scrolling)
imho the minimum best deal would be a Forerunner 265 as a factory refurb (or 255 if you insist on MIP display but why as AMOLED is amazing)
