I'm considering a smart watch for exercise with streaming music and heart monitor without my phone, but have no idea how they work. Do smart watches have their own app store? Is there an f-droid for them?

There are plenty of smart-ish watches that aren't running a full phone OS also, Garmin's watches for example. You can sync them with tools like gadgetbridge
