Gym watch suggestions (run, lift, swim)
Any suggestions for a gym, run, lift, swim watch?
I just want lightweight and a chrono with laps. Easy to push buttons help. Don’t want a huge computer. Thanks

Garmin fenix 5 without a doubt. I just bought it month or so ago. Fantastic watch, waterproof and all functions you could need. I'm very impressed.

Just get a Casio or Timex with decent water resistance. Should be under $30.

Yep. Something cheap, ditgal, and water resistant. If anything happens it's an easy replacement.

I totally forgot about Ironman. They have really easy to push buttons. Thanks for jogging my memory.

Mine is a Casio world time Illuminator.
Robust little watch - super lightweight and has had some serious serious use thrown at it, but it just won’t break. Works for diving too and operating buttons at depth underwater did not cause any issues.

I did get an Ironman for $40. I just wanted a chrono with easy buttons that I could swim in. G-shocks are two hard to press easy while exercising.
