I've been using a polar watch for years, it's perfect. I currently have an ignite 3, it looks much better on a skinny woman's wrist than any garmin. I use the H10 HRM for training, it's flawless. It's European and much cheaper than the garmin.

I asked Polar about Flow redesign

That's great to hear! I hat a Fitbit versa, which i actually loved. But they changed the app and a lo of functionality got lost. After it was bought by Google it went further down the drain.

I asked Polar about Flow redesign

We had Fitbit about 10 years ago. At the time my wife wanted a step tracker. They were fine for that. When we tried using them for workouts (various cardo) the heart rate was off and the watch wasn't keeping up. I had an old Polar FT4 with chest strap that worked better. That's when I suggested we m

Sportwatch

The only Polar watches in that price range are the Ignite 3, Pacer Pro and Pacer, and the Unite, and that is during their current sale. Given what you say you would use it for, the Ignite 3 is probably your best bet. It’s a current watch, unlike the others that are pretty dated. You can have a look
