Garmin Forerunner 935

This watch does everything. It records runs, bikes, swims, hikes, all with great fidelity. The heart rate monitor is surprisingly accurate (matches chest heart rate monitor readings to a very good degree). The battery life is impressive, having been able to record all-day long bike rides or multi-day hikes. The degree of customizability is incredible, and there are things I am still learning about this watch after years of use. You can get phone notifications, controls music, check your calendar, the weather, as you would expect from a smartwatch. But there are also apps that offer additional functions. The one thing this watch lacks is built in topo maps.

Experience

I got this watch to track and record triathlon activities, but it has done so much more for me over the years. Activity tracking is very good, with ability to use GPS, GLONASS, and GALILEO to accurately pinpoint positions. It has struggled somewhat in open water swims, but has been great for runs, bikes, and hikes. I check the weather every morning on this watch and use it to field incoming phone notifications. The battery life has been stellar even after years of use.
