    What I want is a watch that looks just like old fashioned analog watches, does all of the fitness tracking you get from a modern Fitbit, and transmits it to my phone. I don’t want a square watch or a digital display. I want classic beauty with tech under the hood.

      I tried using an analog style watch face on my Apple Watch, but the rectangular digital screen + the need to charge it every single day just wasn’t all that great

      I traded it back in and reverted back to my Citizen Eco Drive (which is solar powered so I never have to worry about charging it) and is visible easily in sunlight

        Yeah? I kind of figure that’s how it’d be for me. I like the idea of how the Apple Watch integrates with iPhone, but I don’t like the way it looks.

      While I wouldn’t call it classy I really like the familiar design of the garmin instinct. It’s definitely a sports watch but as a woman I actually love it so much more than my fitbit versa 2. And I love my fitbit. Now it’s still a digital watch not mechanical but I’m from the generation where they started making tamagochi etc when I was in middle school so it’s pretty nostalgic to have a watch using that tech.
