I have a older style garmin (that’s small and has an actual working watch face so it doesn’t look like a fitness tracker). I mainly wear it for the tracking and stress/HRV tracking but the watch bit is handy when I’m in meetings or dealing with public transport or trying to put down the phone. I lived happily without a watch for many years but since I got it I’ve worn it all the time. If it broke I’d probably go without again until I found something I like that fits.
