Do fitness watches tell you accurately info?

[Endo77]

So I got fitness watch for my birthday lol so Im just curious, are fitness watches as accurate as possible when it comes to steps, calories burned, even heartbeats?

Fitness watches are pretty good for general fitness tracking, but they might not always give you 100% accurate readings, especially for heart rate or calorie burn. Factors like how tightly the watch fits on your wrist or even your skin tone can affect the results. If you're serious about tracking specific health metrics, like for training or monitoring health conditions, you might want to look into more specialized devices. Something like the panerai 1:1 could offer more precise measurements, depending on what you need.
