Or $60 if you pay annually instead of monthly - though who knows how long that annual discount will last.

[edit] and there's no buying the watch WITHOUT the Fitbit Ace Pass data plan, the watch setup REQUIRES a data plan.

from the Compatability section of Tech Specs page:

"Requires Wi-Fi and Fitbit Ace Pass data plan for setup."

[edit2]

though I guess you could buy just one month of the data plan, just for setting up the watch.

But the watch's WiFi supports only 2.4GHz.

[edit3]

the annual data plan deal is only good until before Aug 31. see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xzDpo1t02yA&t=275s

Pretty bold for a company known to EOL their products to even offer an annual plan.
Does this include the cellular plan? Then it's probably fine. But if we'd still have to get an additional cellular plan on top of this, then it's silly.
The $10/mo subscription is the data plan.
