I was a diehard Suunto user.. Had all of the Ambit line at one time or another. Then they f'd up the Suunto UI and I switched to Garmin. I've had the 3 Pro HR, the 5 Pro Max, the 6 Pro and just recently switched to the Epix Pro G2 Sapphire. All 51mm
I still use the AW (had the S1, 3, 4 and now have both the 7 & Ultra. I had hoped the Ultra would be a worthy full time sports watch but it isn't. The battery life is better than the S7 but it still won't last a multi day backpacking trip. The Epix, like your 7, lasts close to a month. And that's with the Amoled display. I got so accustomed to the display on the Ultra that I struggled to see the Fenix 6 in anything other than bright light. Frustrating.
I have been trying to make the Epix my EDC, but the absence of cellular is hard to get accustomed to. I love leaving my phone home but still having some kind of connection to my family.
