Heartbeat watches!
I've found myself very intrigued by the style of doctors watches, or watches with heartbeat tracks. Ones similar to how a tachometer is styled, along the outer dial or as an external bezel part. If you guys know of any other watches with this design I'd love to hear of them! Only so far I've been able find the Vario 1918 medic, and the speed master.

Really interesting piece! I will absolutely add this one to my list, thank you!
If you're not opposed to vintage watches, there's the Seiko 6139-6020 Doctor's Chronograph
(Not my watch)
Longines makes one in their heritage line.

Not super opposed to vintage, especially If they look as interesting as this one
I own a Zeppelin. Great German built quality. Quartz so it is accurate and didn't break the bank.
I have this by Gigandet
I'm in the medical field, and while I'll never use that scale on a watch, I think it's real cool. The Vario is actually the first watch I saw with it, and I've spent a little time looking for others. Unfortunately there don't seem to be a ton of them around, and many are too expensive for me to wear at work.

Boldr has a line with pulsation and respiration meters

Boldr Venture Field Medic. No hands on experience, so I can’t give any opinion. It’s quartz (if that matters).
Pulsometer watches were quite common in the early days of chronographs.
I have some modern references as well as some vintages ones...
Dude, WC is hitting all of my notes right now.
I'm desperately searching for a watch with breguet numerals and a chrono with a pulsations meter instead of the usual tachymeter.
The ones in the race:
And one that's a literal grail that's unreachable in this beautiful patek that went for like USD 350k or something
Where I think I've landed is this....Breguet numerals AND a pulsations scale!

Maybe not EXACTLY what you are looking for, but used by rescue pilots. Perfect hard use, Sinn tool watch for EMT/ER, or medical field professionals in general, if you are wanting a more tactical/tool vibe. YMMV.
Also seen some PJ's rocking them too.
I am a Omega fan and have this one.
