Dang I was hoping there was something you could tell me.

Pinetime (or timeline, can't remember which) might suit you, but I don't think it's ready for me. I don't want another tinker device, I want something that just works, but I also don't want a corporate spy device. I think I'm outta luck until pinetime is complete.

the amazfit bip is nice, if they're still selling them. I've had mine for 4 years now. Transflective screen so the battery lasts a week+, and it works with gadgetbridge so zero cloud phoning-home. Not as many features as a full watchos or wearos watch, but it gives me notifications, and monitors heart rate with zero spying.

Gadgetbridge is pretty awesome in general btw, it's a fully open-source, fully offline app for managing and communicating with bluetooth things like smart watches and headphones. It's on F-Droid.
