 I gave my apple watch away.  I'm now looking for a new watch that just tells the time and doesn't read the oscilations of my soul 24/7.  Recommendations?

That is the only watch you'll ever need. 
 I think you're right. 
 Can’t you just measure your shadow against the sun or something?  😂 
 🤔  
 Good! I used to have an old Soviet Raketa mechanical watch but I rock a 90s Casio 
 I had a nice mechanical one too but I lost it a while back and I think Casio is the way to go.  
 Robust and classic. I have one of the illuminator versions (not wearing it currently otherwise I’d share a pic) 
 Never had a watch. Not missing something on my wrist either. If you need to know the time, just look at your phone.  
 Same here.

Before Apple Watch I used to just look at my phone…or any of the other 20 clocks in our home/office LOL.

Pretty much since the battery is already useless on my Apple Watch I really only use it to track sleep 
 Just tells date and time.  automatically calibrates to correct time and date via radio antenna to an atomic clock at Fort Collins.  Solar charge.  SET and FORGET!

 That's pretty. 
 Details?

I see it’s a Citizen…which model etc? 
 Citizen Men's Watches AT8020-03L Eco-Drive Blue Angels World Chronograph A-T Watch Stainless Steel/Blue One Size 
 Also since it's a pilots watch, there are many global time zones you can set it to and will sync up to local time  
 I am almost there too…

It hardly holds a charge anymore.

The only thing I REALLY use it for is tracking my sleep which is important to do, to me.

I find if I run a sleep debt I can really feel it and I want to always be 10% sleep credit

(Hence why I took a nap today 😴

 Wow that is really beautiful. 
 They are hard to get now, batches can take months to be produced. Absolutely gorgeous quality
