Withings is french :)
My main issue has always been battery life, garmin was and still seems like the only watch able to go so long on 1 charge (outside of withings, but those are hybrid watches)
Polar was on my radar but still crazy expensive for meh battery life (my #1 requirement)
I had a garmin instinct solar 2 and that battery life was approximately 29 days so I hear you.
Check out suunto! Similar to garmin and some of their offerings have similar battery. The suunto cores battery is 12 months in watch only mode according to their site.
