Editor's Notes
January 28, 2019:
Mostly focused on running (of course), but made sure to include some watches that have modes for other sports and activities (like swimming, golf, etc.). Made sure to find a good number of options that can be used as an everyday smartwatch, not just a "sports watch." Mostly focused on practical features, but tried to keep aesthetics in mind as well.
