Wearing one right now. I am very sensitive to weight on my wrist and it doesn't cause me any problems.

Still using mine. Still good for notifications and music controls, the only things I actually care about on a smartwatch.

I've considered Garmin watches a few times -- a week or more of battery life would be great for bike touring, for instance. But it's hard to justify a chonkier watch when the Round is still working great after almost a decade.

Mine stopped charging and broke years ago. :(

I couldn't find a smartwatch I like since.

Nothing can replace the Round completely, as far as I can tell.

Garmin's smaller Instinct model looks pretty good (the 2S Solar will likely replace my Round if/when it dies).

I'm also intrigued by the Bangle.js 2 (https://shop.espruino.com/banglejs2). The touch screen makes me a little nervous -- I'd prefer buttons, especially for outdoor activities -- but an open source OS is a very cool thing. Design seems a lot like the Pebble Time.

But I do get your frustration. You might be best off with a simple watch like the Timex Weekender (https://www.timex.com/browse/collections/weekender/shop-all-...) or just no watch at all.
