    Works OK with Xiaomi Mi Band though maybe not so much with the latest one as quite a bit bigger

    Yes! I wear a Garmin Vivosmart 4 because it’s relatively low profile on my right and a watch on my left. I’ve never had anyone comment on it and it allows me to get notifications discreetly while in business/church attire.

    I don’t double with an Apple watch but I wear a fitbit on my non-watch wrist. I keep it kins busy with various bracelets so it just looks like another one, but I wouldn’t choose a tracker with a large face that looked like a second watch; personal preference.

    I wear an Apple Watch on one wrist and a mechanical watch on the other. In two years I had exactly one person ask about it. Told them ‘one is for fitness tracking, the other because it looks great’. Apparently that was a satisfying answer and the person went on with her day.

    I used to love my Jawbone Up for this exact use case. Didn’t want to wear a Fitbit/Apple Watch as I already had nice watches, so just wanted to have a fitness monitor that was subtle.

    Tried the Oura ring but nowadays it requires a subscription for pretty much everything. Waiting to see if a nice device comes out that’s integrated into Apple Health, honest have a screen and doesn’t look a bit daft if you’re wearing a mechanical watch.

    I do that. It’s alright. I’d prefer not to do it but it beats having 2 watches. People don’t care

    Yep. Used to do it. People say 'youre wearing two watches?" And you say “ones a fitness band” then the conversation is over.
