  • grumpy middle aged man alert.

    mmm so i want a smartwatch but i dont want a smartwatch..... my trusty Suunto T3C from many a year back is eating batteries and has plenty of battle scars - generally i put on the HR belt once a year for a few months but have basically used it as a digital watch and it (used to) last years on a battery

    i want to replace

    but i dont want a fitness watch that i have to charge every night or get bothered with notifications from everyone every second.

    but actually i'd like to track runs and rides, but just time/speed and maybe HR - i'm assuming wrist HR would do? or perhaps i should stick with/get a newer chest HR.

    digital or analogue face , dont mind

    does anything like this even exist?

    ta.

  • I got a Vivoactive 3 in 2019 and the feeble battery is pretty much my only complaint (that and the accuracy of distance when swimming lengths is a bit suspect, occasionally). I’d get a s/h Fenix if I were looking to get another Garmin, tho.
