The setup of the Instinct 3 range mirrors the Garmin Fenix 8 range, which also has solar, AMOLED and a cheaper E model. The Instinct 3 is likely to draw some customers away from the flagship Fenix 8, which is much more expensive, though does offer some key upgrades including offline maps.

The Instinct series are Garmin's range of super-tough sports watches and this third model has a new AMOLED display. That screen will apparently give you up to 24 days of battery life, which should last you for most trips – including those where you get hopelessly lost.

Suitable for multi-day hikes and long camping trips, Garmin claimes this sports watch has up to 24 days of battery life in smartwatch mode, and nine days in always-on mode. Available in the 45mm and 50mm sizes,
