>Android wear does not support a permanently on screen all the time and I would totally buy a cheap device like that just for navigating.

Buy a Pebble? I have been using a Pebble 2 SE for over a year and one of the primary use cases is so I can navigate on motorcycle.

I leave phone in my pocket. I set the route, maps sends a notification before turns and the watch picks it up. Works in full sunlight and I shake it at night to light it up.

Gets 5-6 days of battery life, I think I paid $40 for mine.
