Simple as that. I had one but it stopped working and I never got a new one. I want to start tracking things better while I am trying to get back into shape and want to be able to match the data up with how I feel, what I ate, drank, etc.. to better understand how things impact me directly.

Anyone here have a watch and use it for stuff like that? Also, I don't have any interest in Apple since I don't own any apple products. I know some people that love their apple watch but I just don't see a reason to get one when I don't have anything else apple.

Interesting. I like the 10 days without a charge and that sounds pretty damn extensive. I don't have a dog but if I do in the future I would not mind having a feature like that. I am planning to move somewhere with a hell of a lot more space and a dog might be in our future.

I have a Garmin Instinct 2, before that a cheap Garmin that was kind of gay looking. they are tough devices, I wore my old one working, out got covered in mortar, taken out on stand up jet skis, taken out snowboarding. it wouldn't die, the silicone wrist band wore through before before it died.

instinct 2 has a lot of health tracking that works great. it also has a built in barometer, altimeter, and compass today is very accurate, enough for navigation by degrees.

The Garmin watches are the most focused on health and utility and they are built strong. I had a two year replacement policy on my last one and I couldn't break it.

For the dog thing to work you have to have an appropriate collar and remote. The collar talks to the remote up to 9 miles and the remote talks to the watch. I run the Alpha 300i with a TT15 mini collar. I think it's something like 8 or 9 collars I can track at once. I only have one bird dog though so I haven't messed with that.

Thanks for the extra info. I do appreciate it. Should I need it in the future that will make my research a lot easier.
