I used a fenix 6 for 4 years prior to this, had a forerunner before that. been very happy with all of them.
also, I always ditch the bands they come with, and get fabric velcro straps from AliExpress. I buy four or five of them in different colors, and I think they're usually between two and four bucks each. just make sure you get the right size for your watch.
on the rare occasion the bands need to be washed, I either secure the velcro and throw them in with My regular laundry, or sometimes I put them in a mesh bag in case I'm worried about the velcro coming open then damaging other clothes. I dry them in the dryer, and haven't had an issue with deterioration, but if you're worried, I guess you could just hang/ AirDry them.
spending $500 on Fenix7/Epix2 right now would be incredibly foolish
there will be much better deals in a few months
remember only the Fenix8 and related watches can run four CIQ datafields at the same time, the Fenix7/Epix2 only two
even the FenixE is a better watch than the Epix2

do not spend $500 on an Epix2

it's not just the hardware, there are no more software updates and the fenix7/epix2 firmware is buggy as hell right now with Garmin in no rush to fix it

Worth it
And even if your Garmin watch theoretically falls out of bluetooth support to connect to your phone, the cable charger can be used to plug in to PC/Mac through Garmin Express software and upload the data directly to Garmin Connect Web portal.
This is the biggest reason Garmin watches hold their value even in used market. The original functionality you bought them for will still work YEARS down the line. Even if battery life drops, 16 days drops down to like 10 or 8 days of battery life which is still longer than majority of smart watches out there.
For most of us, it's just a watch on your wrist, that tells time . Yeah, I have running , GPS, diving , but do I really care or use . I use the LED light ,but to spend 500 for a watch with LED.....eh..I mean you can buy a Samsung Bravia 5 for 500 that was 1,400..
You always find better deals on other stuff , something to think about it ...
