I wear Apple Watch to track sleep.

Garmin when hiking/backpacking for tracking and navigating. I always wear a mechanical on other wrist as I don’t fully trust anything on buttery and I’m a watch nerd.

That’s the last one I would ever sell. It’s the first mechanical watch I bought myself. It’s been with me for 24 years through good and bad. I ditched the concept of a keeper but this one is the exception 😉

1200m ascent in 3 hours. A bit slow. Got to train more to prepare for longer hike in summer. Don’t worry I’m wearing a proper watch too😁
