Not in the market for a smart watch, but noted: don't buy Fitbit.
I see some love in this thread for Garmin... Any other good options?
Fitbit was doomed the second Google bought it. It will slowly get less supported and eventually canceled. It's a shame because I liked Fitbit and I'd hate for smartwatches to end up in the duopoly we have with phones.
As soon as they removed the challenge social feature, we bailed.
A great trick for Garmin watches is that they make some high end models with sapphire glass. Get one of those used and you have top of the line stuff for a reasonable price, yet the glass never scratches so it will look like new...
