Fitness watch that isn’t bulky?
I have tiny wrists and I loooove my garmin Venu 3S! The face being a circle is much more delicate looking in my opinion compared to when I had an Apple Watch

Bye Fitbit Sense 2, hello Garmin Venu 3s
Unfortunately my decade or so of Fitbit watches is coming to an end. I have nothing really negative to say about Fitbit itself. I don't. Just... Google.
My wife and I both used to own the Sense 2, and hers lasted for just about 2 years and mine died a few weeks ago. Her battery died. Didn't last mo

Garmin watch
I had a venu 3s which worked well with the pacing apps someone has created on the garmin app store, I think it’s recommended a quite a lot on the sub. I really liked mine but had to return due to my skin reacting to the watch backing so gonna try it again in the future when I’m hopefully a bit bette

Fitness watch that isn’t bulky?
I agree! I’ve worn Fitbit, Apple Watch, and now have Venu 3s on my tiny wrist. It’s the only one where I forget I have it on and it doesn’t catch when I throw my shirt on. It does steps, heart rate, and calorie tracking. But my favorite things are ability to play music, establish workout routines, a

Devices: switching from Visible to … Garmin?
I have never had the visible band (app on its own didn’t work for me) but had a Garmin Venu 3s. It was good for tracking things but unfortunately I had an allergic reaction to the case so I had to return it. I have very sensitive skin and react to most metals. Since you have an Apple Watch already,

Garmin venu 3s
Going from an Apple Watch to the garmin venu 3s and I’m overwhelmed (in a good way!) with all the things the garmin can do! Just curious what settings everyone uses to track their workout and what your watch face display is since there are so many options.

Garmin watch
I also have a Venu 3s and find it great with the Pacing watch face. I also reacted to the it. I have very sensitive skin and generally react to anything which can be reacted to. 🙃 But I solved for this by Wearing it looser so it can sit in different places across the day. With the silicone strap, it

Garmin watch
I have the venu 3s because I like the smaller face. Plus it had newer sensors than the latest vivoactive at the time I purchased it. There isn't anything helpful for pacing on the Venu that isn't also available on the vivoactive, so either one of them will do the job. I do love my venu and if/when i

Best watch for small wrist
I have the venu 3s and I think the watch face looks proportional on my small wrist, but I have yet to find a silicone band that isn’t stupidly big on me Edit: forgot the s!

Running watch for small wrists
I have the same wrist size but went with the Venu 3s because its only 41mm. That watch doesnt meet your needs but Im more comfortable with the smaller size and would recommend. My main complaint is the height of the watch - I catch it on walls just walking through hallways because it sticks out more
