Smart Watches and Tattoo Sleeves

[cfdjay]

Found out the hard way after I got my sleeve that smart watch sensors rarely work through the ink. Anyone have a work around or experience with this?

Laser off a place for your watch cuz folks can’t see through your watch anyway?

You could try a chest strap heart rate monitor, they will pair with your watch or phone. Not sure how well it would do with a heavy pack but they're suppsoed to be more accurate for heart rate based statistics.

If your are just using the watch for heart rate and other physical things, the Oura smart ring does just about as much.

I had thought about that and Whoop but it's just an added cost that I don't really care to spend.

I loved my Apple Watch and garmin for working out, daily life. The Apple is terrible in the back country, garmin was much better battery life.

I literally daily my orient or Rolex and just carry my iPhone.

I feel and last my orient in Wyoming solo mule deer hunting this year, found it the next day retracing my steps.

Needless to say I won’t wear the Rolex in the back country haha.

I have an older 16570 that I bought as my first one, I love it. Not to flashy and perfect size for a daily.

I have a newer sub date for special occasions but not a fan of the newer case size. Should have a bought an older model but it was an anniversary present so not ever gunna sell it,

Orient kamasu is super hard to beat for the money, hits wayyyy above its price range, pair it with a strape code and it’s about the perfect daily watch imo. I’ve beat the living piss outta mine the last 10 years and it just keeps on ticking!

You'd be correct. They are basically as accurate as hospital setup. Use mine on rowing machine/ treadmill. Polar H10
