I'm a techie and have developed a new thing for smart watches...#DontJudge. I'm curious to know what folks use and why.

I rely on A Fitbit flex 2 for daily tracking, but my main watch is a Galaxy watch so I'm active on Samsung health as well. Samsung doesn't have the community that exists on Fitbit. I use a Garmin to track all my cycling data and would wear an Apple watch while riding as well ..till it fell mid-ride and cracked.

    I use my Galaxy watch and that's it...

    I prefer it over the fitbit which seems to over track workouts and activities imho...

    The only thing I don't like about this watch is that I cannot really track workouts done on my bowflex max trainer which tells me I burn twice what the watch says when I track as an elliptical or stepper

    I think Garmin makes the best strictly fitness watch by far... especially for running or cycling.

    Garmin fenix 5X. The only watch I wear.
    I swim a lot. It takes swimming the best. Rugged too. An apple watch wouldn't survive what might Garmin has been through.

    Garmin forerunner 35. I cycle quite a bit as well and the data is helpful!
