    Withings, Garmin and Casio have them in very different styles, plus a lot of Chinese ones which names I don’t remember.

    Literally months of battery time, up to unlimited for the solar ones.

      As someone with a Garmin Instinct Solar, the unlimited battery is really dependent on your habits. You really need to be exposed to the sun for long periods on a daily basis for it to noticeably charge via solar. Still though the idea of a watch that you never need to charge is really neat.

        I’m sure it’ll charge from the dim light of my screens just fine /s
