Do you have a smart watch?

I scoffed at the Apple Watch until my wife bought me one for our anniversary.

How does it save me?
- I constantly set timers. If I set the dog out, I set a timer. When I'm cooking, I set timers.
- I look at my calendar every morning and set alarms for every meeting that day.
- It gives me a gentle buzz when my iphone is giving me car directions. It knows I'm not listening so that haptic reminder is helpful
- exercise tracking and sleep tracking. It's more important than you think when you're not a diligent person

Do you have a Fitbit, Garmin, Apple, or a different "Smart" watch?

I've considered a fitness watch with heart-rate monitor for when I exercise, but not a smartwatch. My routines are fairly regular and if I have the odd task I might forget I just use my phone alarm for that. How often does it need charging, I wonder?

@PhilDeep I charge it in the 30 minutes I read before bed. Then I charge it again when I shower in the mornings.

I've never had it die on me using that schedule.
