I fully expect this to be an “I don’t think there’s any good replacement” scenario, but I’d love to hear some options. I also know that this isn’t a good time to really make expensive purchases, and I don’t plan to make the purchase, but I’d like to hear people’s thoughts and bits of knowledge on smartwatches, or fitness-tracking watches / wearables.

So what’s your non-US, non-CN (yeah I have more than just a non-US constraint) option? Anything good out there?

I know there might be a revive of the Pebble but it’s not great for fitness tracking, and there’s no plan to go in that direction for now. And it might still be a US product.

    I wanted to avoid Garmins new paywall model. The avoidance of sending money to the US is a bonus. Changed 645 for Suunto Race S. Tip - you can download the Suunto app and use it for an activity or two to see what it does - obv you don’t get much data. There is ecosystem shock when you change from Connect (not connect plus because fuck Garmin) but you get over it. Maps are amazing.
