Garmin Forerunner 570 and Forerunner 970 now available to purchase globally alongside HRM 600 heart rate monitor
Garmin has now started selling the Forerunner 570 and Forerunner 970 globally, having presented the pair simultaneously last week alongside the HRM 600. Incidentally, the HRM 600 can also be picked up from today, albeit not from third parties like Amazon just yet. For reference, Garmin has priced the HRM 600 at $169.99 for the device's XS-S and M-XL sizes; please see our launch article for technical details.
As for Garmin's latest Forerunner smartwatches, the Forerunner 570 is by far the cheapest of the two at $549.99. Currently, Garmin has stock of all 42 mm and 47 mm finishes, which it offers three in three finishes apiece. The full-colour names for the Forerunner 570 are as follows:
42 mm

- Raspberry Aluminum with Translucent Bone/Mango Band
47 mm
