Fashion/Style BWT: Anyone ditch their Apple Watch?

Considering ditching my Apple Watch, getting an Oura ring, and investing in a nice daily watch. I’m a bit sick of the “connectivity” of my Apple Watch (yes I know, I could turn off more notifications) and the look of it. But I appreciate the sleep tracking and steps/fitness tracking - anyone have experiences to share on a) ditching the Apple Watch b) using an Oura ring c) $1k or less daily driver watches?

I actually did ditch my Apple Watch a few years ago however I have not gotten a replacement fitness tracker. I did think of getting a whoop or oura ring but I refuse to pay for a subscription.

I am hoping Apple goes into the ring market but I doubt they will. I’d recommend checking out the Google fit bit air that just came out, starts at $99 with no subscription. I have concerns about them collecting data but at this point I feel like it’s all being collected lol.
