Is there such a thing as a pretty smart watch.

[Imtoooldforallthis]

I like the idea of a smart watch but to get the full benefit I feel I would need to wear it all the time and I don't really like the sporty look. Would need to work with my android phone.

Thought you meant one that wasn't MENSA material, but wasn't completely dull either.😀

Garmin Lily

I have the Fitbit Luxe which I love and think it looks stylish. I'm not a fan of the chunky/sporty styles either.

I got my OH a withings watch that I’m quite jealous of!

Kronaby or withings both have good hybrid smart watch options that look more like real watches than fitness trackers

I have a Fitbit Luxe, don't love it but it is a huge improvement on DH's garmin

Skagen hybrid are worth a look

Thanks for the recommendations I will have a look.

I've got a fossil one, looks like a normal watch

I have had two fossil smartwatches, they both stopped charging after a year. They replaced the first one for me, they didn’t replace the second (they were asking for information that I just couldn’t find so not all their fault). They were lovely watches, and this was maybe 4 or 5 years ago so hopefully they’ve fixed any issues, but as people are recommending them I thought I’d share my experience.

I have a Suunto Peak 5 in heather, which I love and wear with almost anything, but it does still look like a smartwatch, so might not be quite right for you:

Garmin Viviactive 3s, it looks like a normal watch and you can replace the rubber strap with a nicer one.

I also have a Garmin vivo active (4s) I changed the band to a prettier one than the rubber, I have quite a few bands I swap in and out.

I'm also on my third Fossil smart watch, as the first two broke.

The first one was replaced for free, but the second lasted just long enough (around 2-3 years) that they wouldn't do anything, except offer a paid for repair that would have nearly cost as much as a new watch so I took the latter option.

If/when the current one breaks, I'll have a look around to see what else is on offer and might try a Withings if there's nothing else available of the type I want, ie a normal watch battery with a decent life as I CBA taking it off every few days or whatever to charge it.

I have a Fitbit luxe and love it, bought lots of different coloured metal straps off of eBay and can change to match my other jewellery.

Olivia Burton watches are lovely.,

I managed to buy a fossil watch of vinted for £35 so will update when it arrives.

You can get various ones in this series

I've got a Garmin Vivoactive with rose gold trim and I think it looks quite pretty. Not as pretty as the leather watch I used to wear but it's not bad.

I wear Fitbits currently a Fitbit Charge 5. The straps they come with are horrible so I buy prettier ones on Ebay or Amazon. I've also had some handmade straps that look like beaded bracelets from an Etsy supplier.
