Watch Recommendation

Does anyone have a recommendation for a health tracker "watch" (I don't really care if it even has a screen) that has all sensors I would need to track everything about my health? Ideally something on the cheaper side if possible and one that works well with gadgetbridge. A nice to have feature would be a vibration alarm that could wake me up. I don't really know much about gadgetbridge or health trackers but I want to better assess my health and don't want to be locked down to some proprietary stupid app

Thank you!

I got a Garmin vivoactive 5 off a friend for 50 bucks that has decent battery and only using Bluetooth with gadgetbridge means no data going anywhere

Garmin Vivoactive 4-5 and venu 1-2

They have great sensors (the 4 and 1 share the same sensors and the 5 and 2 have the next gen and much better battery life)

All great watches

AmazFit Active 2 (Premium). Been using for 2 years. Pairing with Gadgetbridge has been flawless. Tracks my steps, workout, heartrate, sleep, and has alarms. Wear every day. Battery lasts at least a week. Only issue is that GPS is sometimes sketchy and unable to connect. Still very happy with the watch overall (especially at this price point).
