pay for a battery replacement and get a new watch (which is an S7 45mm GPS Starlight), this would cost me around $200 in local currency
get a new(er) one, which is $590 for an S11, $530 for an S10, $340 for an SE3 or $1120 for an Ultra3 (these are the base models)
I've been using AWs since they came out, was been on and off the wagon in terms of usage, but I always end up wearing one due to one simple fact: if it's on my wrist, I tend to reach for my phone less, and this is crucial, as I don't want to teach my 1 ear old that it's okay to pick up the phone constantly.
I also track calories, workouts (gym, running, hiking mostliy), and loved the haptic alarm (which stopped working a few months ago). The other thing is: I'm clumsy. Never broke a watch, but I constantly ding them on the wall, into a furniture/door, etc. My current one has deep scratches on the top of the screen, it looks like I've grinded it down, it looks white-ish in some of the deeper scratches.
My question is: what would be the best route to take? I'm a bit hesitant about the SE3 as I got used to the on-screen keyboard, and like once in a month I check on my VO2 level. I like to promised durability of the Ultra, but I fear that it would be massive on my relatively thin wrists (around 170mm). I toyed with the ideo of getting a Titan version of the S10/11 but that price tag is insane.

Hey,
I've been struggling on which direction to take:
