Hi everyone! So i'd like some help to choose the right garmin for me, but first let me tell you my situation and my needs.

I'm 30 years old and I used to be a competitive swimmer during highscool but university and work kept me away from training. Now I have more freetime and it's been almost a year since i started training again seriously and I usually swim everyday.

I alternate between indoor swimming and open water ( I live by the sea so it depends on the weather)

I have an apple watch ultra 1 but I don't like not being able to use the watch due to touchscreen not working while in water, bad battery life and bad open water tracking.

I would use it as an everyday watch, so spending a little bit more is ok. Just for extra information about watch sizes, I am 1.83 meter and my wrist size is 16.5 cm

Right now I am looking at the forerunner 970 (645€) , the Fenix 8 47mm titanium (799€), and the Fenix 8 43mm (819€)

thank you in advance for your suggestions and your help
