Modular, repairable, GPS smartwatch looks promising.

A place to share practical, durable and quality made products that are made to last, with an emphasis on upcycled and sustainable products!
Guidelines:
Things that are well-made and durable (even if they won't last a lifetime) are A-Okay!
Unlike that other BIFL place, Home-made and DIY items are encouraged here, as long as some form of instruction is included in the body of the post.
Videos links are not allowed as post titles, but you may use them in a text post.
A limited amount of self-promotion is accepted, IF the item you are selling aligns with this criteria:
- The item must be made with sustainable or recycled materials.
- If electronic in some way, the item must be open-source.
- The item must be user-serviceable (if applicable).
- You cannot be a large corporation.
- The post must be clearly marked with a [Self Promotion] tag in your title.

MODERATORS
I think this is perfect for people that do exercise, athletic training and sports. A smart watch is useful for heart rate monitoring, not needing to check your phone for distance measurements or notifications. A conventional digital watch can be a chronometer, timer, maybe heart rate if fancy but there are real benefits to the "smart" functionality.
Not everyone needs one of these, but there is a certain segment that smart watches are best for, and if there is one that has an open design and ecosystem compared to others like Samsung, Apple this is excellent.
