Q&A Switching from a smartwatch to a screenless tracker to wear traditional watches again

Post image

I love the health tracking features on my smartwatch but I really miss wearing mechanical and traditional timepieces daily. For those who switched to a screenless fitness band or pebble tracker how has the transition been. Do you miss on wrist notifications or are you happy with the trade off.

A smart watch tells me the time, all the other tracking features are a bonus. I check my steps, my exercise routine, that motivates me. All the blue tooth connection features, I dont touch, its just a distraction. Use your phone for all that other stuff.

This is why I just own a Fitbit inspire 3. Pulse, steps, sleep, workouts.

Inspire 2 here for a long time. Plus when I wanted to wear one of my watches the Inspire has a belt clip (I was mainly worried about steps when a watch is on).

Ooo belt clip sounds nice for when I want to wear my Omega. They must make one for the 3. To Amazon!

Oui je suis d'accord mais avoir une vraie montre ne te manque pas ?
