NanaDC Badass Rating: 5/5

• I've put the Garmin Fenix 3 HR through its paces over the last year, wearing it every single day for road running, trail runs, mountain biking, and rock climbing, among other activities. Despite its size, the watch is surprisingly comfortable to wear during runs and tracks my distance and GPS accurately. What's even more impressive is how well it performs on the treadmill, where it tracks speed, distance, stride, and cadence with incredible accuracy.
• The Fenix 3 HR is an incredibly durable and worry-proof watch that has exceeded my expectations. I've knocked it into walls, crashed my mountain bike, and exposed it to UV rays, yet the sapphire glass and silicon watch band have remained in perfect condition. What's more, it can withstand temperature variations, from near-zero degrees on snow bike rides to 870 degrees in the sauna and steam room.

Rip Curl Search GPS 2: Premium Value

As an avid surfer, looking for an upgrade to my digital watch collection, I'm thrilled to introduce the Rip Curl Search GPS 2!

It's got everything the modern surfer could want in a watch: durable polyurethane straps [R], a reliable analog-quartz movement, and of course waterproofing so you don't have to worry about it taking any damage after a wipeout.

The advanced GPS tracking technology makes this watch almost too good to be true. With just one glance, you can check out the tide tracking as well as a stopwatch and timer.

You can also see your top speeds and distance traveled during a surf session. But that's not all—the Rip Curl Surfing Timepiece has a display with enhanced low light visibility so it's easy to read while slashing through the waves.

Featuring a 45mm case diameter and stylish black color, this watch is comfortable and easy-to-use, even for those with bigger wrists. The rechargeable battery keeps its charge for up to 24 hours of active wear, and with a water resistance rating of up to 15m, you can use it for indoor sports as well as outdoor activities like swimming and snorkeling. When diving deeper than 15m, however, it will no longer be waterproof due to the pressure.

But that's not all—the Rip Curl allows you to connect to the Rip Curl Search App on your Android phone or Apple device and analyze your surf session in amazing detail. Through the app you can track your location maps, access detailed graphics, and even share images with friends. You can also make payments directly in-app for an added convenience.

When paired with a compatible Apple Watch or UAT Band such as Dawn Patrol or SearchGPS 3/4, you get access to special Surfline Sessions and so much more! Obviously there's a bigger investment upfront due to the price tag, but it all pays off when you go deep into what this stylish surfing chronometer offers.

Plus it's totally worth it when you consider the potential damage (and money) saved by owning such an intuitively designed watch–fully waterproof up to 15m so you don't have to worry about sandy environments ruining its performance!

If there's any drawback at all it might be related to software/firmware issues or user error–more rare than hardware issues but still possible. If you weren't careful with documentation or GPS settings when pairing the watch with compatible devices then that might be something that needs troubleshooting as well–fortunately at least it won't cost any more money!

Otherwise, this is one of my favorite watches ever—it may not be for everyone due its size (45mm) but for surfers with bigger wrists or a giant bag clip it might just be perfect!

The low-profile design is simple and slick enough that it looks great no matter where you go–and since there's a wireless connectivity option built in (which doubles as a tracker!) you never have to worry about keeping track of where each wave took you.

The surf report is also a nice touch, providing up-to-date tidal data, swell direction, wind conditions, and the state of the tide. It's like having a personal surf coach on my wrist.

Are you looking for a manly, durable watch with substantial offerings? Do you want a chunkier model with some extra waterproof activities? Are you a Prime Member? Then Casio’s G-Shock Frogman is for you!

This Casio offering has a heavy, chunky case size of 51.3 x 48.2 mm, with a weight of 150g (for the titanium case). The case and bezel material are pure titanium and the steel band features an offset lug for improved comfort on the wrist.

The construction is solid and water-resistant up to 200m, so feel free to take it to the beach or fishing without worrying about it getting wet.

NanaDC Badass Rating: 5/5

• As a G-Shock enthusiast, I know that the frogmen line is legendary for a reason. The a-symmetrical design and iso certification make it one-of-a-kind in the G-Shock family. The metal screw-back case with a resin protective bezel is a signature feature that sets the frogmen apart from other G-Shock models. Even though other G-Shock models have moved away from metal construction, frogmen have stayed true to their roots.
• When I first got my hands on the newest generation frogman, I was blown away by its construction. The DLC coated stainless steel case gives it a premium feel and adds to its durability. The extra-thick sapphire crystal on the front provides an unparalleled level of protection, making it perfect for everyday wear. The carbon fiber strap insert ensures that the strap won't break easily.

Apple Watch Series 5

The Apple Watch Series 5 is the latest in a long line of iconic smartwatches from Apple. It's an incremental upgrade that packs in more features than ever before. But is it worth the investment? Let’s take a look.

The design of the Watch Series 5 is sleek and stylish. It comes with a variety of bands—from the classic Milanese Loop to the chic Modern Buckle—so you can personalize it to fit your own style. And, just like all other Apple smartwatches, it comes in three stylish materials: aluminum, titanium, and ceramic.

No matter what model you choose, you’ll get the same Retina display with new Always-On technology. This means you won’t have to tap or flick your wrist to wake up the screen—it’s always on and ready for viewing.

Its LTPO OLED technology is bright and vivid, even when seen in direct sunlight, so you can check the time and notifications without having to squint.

The processor that powers this watch is incredibly fast, making applications and programs load quickly, as well as switching between them almost instantly.

Plus, its watchOS 6 offers plenty of options to customize your experience—from switching up your Watch Face to adding ‘Complications’ (small widgets) to Infograph Modular designs featuring Meridian and an ambient light sensor.

Of course, many things make this smartwatch stand out—not least its health features. From sleep tracking and heart rate monitoring to ECG tests and Cycle Tracking for women—this smartwatch has it all covered.

You can also take advantage of its Water-Resistance features, Connectivity via Bluetooth or WiFi, and GPS capabilities for running or cycling outside. In addition, you can access the App Store for apps from app developers specializing in health data.

When it comes to battery life, this smartwatch holds its own against most rival smartwatches with Always-On Displays. You can expect around 18 hours of battery life in general use (depending on settings). That's enough for an entire day without having to recharge (which only takes a few minutes).

At the end of the day, there's no denying that the Apple Watch Series 5 is pricey—but it's worth it if you're looking for an all-in-one device that can help track your fitness goals while also alerting you to important medical-grade health issues and period flow symptoms in real time.

With plenty of customizable options, plus a wide range of third party apps available on the App Store—such as Facebook and Calculator—the Watch Series 5 really packs a punch!

I have never seen this level of innovation in a smartwatch before, and it truly sets the Apple Watch apart from its competitors.
• I am in awe of the built-in compass feature of the Apple Watch Series 5. This is a game-changer for outdoor enthusiasts like me who rely on accurate navigation. The confidence cone is a great addition that provides even more accuracy. Despite the potential interference from magnetic watch bands, the compass feature still works incredibly well.
