I've been relatively happy with my Garmin 920xt for the last four years, but looking to upgrade. What are the favorite Smart Watches on the market today?
I am primarily interested for pool and open water training (and events), and it would be great to be able to incorporate a heart rate monitor and a water-temperature gauge into the actual watch.
It would be nice if it worked well for calculating kicking and one-arm (off arm) drill distances to get a better handle on TOTAL session distances.
Connectivity to social fitness platforms would be fantastic.
Any recommendations?
I haven't tested it in the pool (thank you, COVID-19). It does seem accurate as far as HR goes. The main screen (open water swimming) shows time and distance, but I think you can scroll to HR. It buzzes and chirps every 500yds. I have been having some issues with it accurately tracking my in-water distance, but I'm going to play around with it - I wonder if it's confused when I switch strokes.
