Good for you, now you just have an ugly watch!

I didn’t get it to be pretty, I got it to track my heart rate and give me medication reminders. 👍

I think the beautiful colorful screens and many faces of smart watches are often more attractive than another plain looking standard watch. That timex is ugly

Sticking it in the charger while I shower isn’t hard. 🤷‍♂️

Mfs really be like “ohh but you gotta charge it once every day or two” ok and? The things are tiny it takes like half an hour to charge my apple watch se once a day, and that’s after 2-3 years of daily usage so it’s battery isn’t exactly happy anymore

That's the biggest issue of smartwatches IMO. They will all end up in a landfill after approximately 5 years while you'll be able to give that Timex (or your F91W that costs less than a pizza) to your grandkids.

It will just end up being sold by a thief.
