The Garmin fenix 6s is perfect for my needs, and if yours are similar you will agree. I use my watch for many different functions-fitness tracking, EMS (things like counting respirations or timing things), like to take it backpacking/hiking/camping, etc. I needed very specific features and did a ton of research before purchasing. The things I was looking for were hard to find in a single watch-waterproof and extremely tough, excellent battery life (I have an overnight shift and cannot use a watch that needs to charge each night), good GPS, "always on" display option, good visibility outdoors/in bright lighting, fitness tracking, heart rate/pulse ox, some app alerts. I am an iPhone user but I did not want or need to text or take/make calls from my watch. I could (if I chose) view texts on it, and I can "accept" a call on my phone via the watch (it simply answers the call on the phone, I cannot hear or speak on the watch itself). If those features are important for you this may not be right for you, but this watch has held up beautifully and meets all of my needs. I did have one issue about a year into owning it where the "vibrate" noise started rattling like something was loose in the case. Garmin replaced it at no cost to me. Highly recommend!
