Venu 3S

I love my Venu 3S - plus it looks stylish with a more classic watch face.

I like my Venu 3S for this. I’ve switched back and forth with AW - I liked the ability to voice text on the watch, the cartoon-y design of things like workout stuff is appealing. It’s an adjustment to Garmin if you’re used to these aspects of the AW (or more of the “ecosystem” integrations), but I now can’t do without the Venu battery life and Rondo watch face.

I just bought my first watch ever, a Venu 3S, a week ago, and I am currently very happy with it! It should barely fit into your price range. I have only charged it once since buying, and battery seems to last at least for a week.

I loved it lots.

I’d say Venu 3s or FR265s might be excellent choices if you’re flexible on maps

I am a woman with small wrists as well and the Venu 3s is a perfect fit.

I’m glad I stuck with the Venu 3s, because it looks good and I do weight training and run everyday, but I travel for work and mingle with people more, so style weighed a little more after my race was over.

I have the Venu 3s and love it. I was also considering the Vivoactive series, but went with the Venu 3s mainly because it is slightly smaller and I have small wrists. I also like that it has a more premium look to it, a speaker and mic and the newest HR monitor.
