I got rid of mine because of the battery as well. The benefits didn't outweigh the extra mental overhead of having one more thing to manage daily.

Except for times when I want to capture health data, or when I'm exercising, I wear nothing. After all, I always have my phone with me, so I always know what time it is.

But when I want to wear a watch, my Garmin Venu SQ2 provides nearly as good activity and health tracking as the Apple watch, plus more sports tracking features... and its battery lasts days. It's also lighter and cheaper, so if I break it I won't be as upset.

I think I’m misreading this - you exercise naked?

[michaelteter]

Haha. Read it however you like. Yoga is the only single person sport I can imagine doing naked... running and weight lifting seems like a huge risk.

I wouldn’t do martial arts with a device tied to my wrist. The likelihood of an injury is too high, as an example.
