[Question] Gym/running watch for thin wrists (alien.top)

I've search in the sub and all recommendations are around Timex ironman, G-Shocks or other big watches but my wrist is thin 15.5cm/6.1inch. Now I wear a miband which is not bad but no gps and id like to change it. Can u guys recommend a pref smart watch with gps or at least watch with stopwatch? (Not apple if possible and comfy to sleep with, not very thick) Thank you so much in advance

Casio F91-W

Actually I have a Casio aq800 but the strap is too uncomfortable with the sweat. Maybe I'll get a Casio f91 yep

Genuine suggestion here, what if you looked at children's smartwatches? Like the Garmin vivofit Jr. 3?

WOW I've never considered them before. Ill search more even I don't use the kids tools they look like what I look for and they have good price 🤩🤩 Thank you so much!

I’d suggest that you not worry about size. Just get the functionality you need. It’s for the gym, not a wedding.

Yeah you have a point but I just feel uncomfortable wearing big boys it feels very unbalanced idk
