There really is a smartwatch for every occasion – these are our favourites in 2025

Apple Watch Ultra 3 detail shot.

Wearables have evolved far beyond simple step counters. These days, the best smartwatches are personal trainers, health monitors, and even adventure companions, all while looking sharper than ever.

Others double as stylish accessories that slip effortlessly under a shirt cuff, blending traditional design with smart features like notifications, sleep tracking, and contactless payments.
