smart watch with second hand

I use my apple watch, you can change the faces.. there are many choices and you can switch out watch faces and pick one with a second hand. I love it! Plus everything from my phone is right there at my fingertips!

This is what I do too. I can't wear a "regular" watch as I have to change batteries at least every month, I went with the Apple Watch as I have an iPhone and they sync seamlessly. It also has a pedometer on it so you would be wearing one item.

I use a Fitbit Charge HR. I've had it for almost 3 years and I love it. It doesn't have the second hand, but I love everything it does. I also don't see the smart watch as being necessity because I wouldn't use the apps. Also I have poor eyesight and the screen on my phone is easier to use than a smart watch. I've had this Fitbit since I've had a galaxy s5 and now I have an iPhone (which I hate) and it's still great. If you're thinking about a smartwatch for an android I would suggest the Samsung Gear or one of the ones Motorola has. Be aware that these also would work best with the device of the same brand. If you just want a fitness band look into Fitbit or Nike. My personal faves are the Fitbit charge 2 and the Fitbit Alta (more stylish).

For me it's a matter of using all the apps the watch comes with or just needing a fitness band for steps, time, and heart rate. If I need something with a second hand I just use another watch. Sounds like a lot, but it works for me lol. Hope this helps!
