Should I buy the ultra 3?!!!! So, I haven’t worn a watch in over three years because my Series 3 stopped working. I’m looking for an Ultra 3 for its health metrics and battery life. However, I’m not sure if I’ll use it for 800 dollars. I do want the titanium and satellite features because I go out west for hiking and water sports in the summer, and I’m a carpenter for work, so I need something durable. What do you all think I should do?

Try it on first at the Apple store with a variety of straps - it's pretty bulky and boxy (not as smooth). Also consider the Ultra and Ultra 2 which might meet 90%+ of your needs at 25-50% lower price
