So which piece of tech is the Best Smartwatch for Swimmers, that you can go swimming with to track your laps, strokes and swimming fitness ?

Well it really does depend on what you require your smart watch to do ! will it be just a swim timer or maybe you want to use it for a variety of other sporting activities too.

So we have put together our list of the Top 5 Best Smartwatch for Swimmers below:

#1 Apple Watch 5 
The best smartwatch in our opinion for swimmers is the iPhone 5

Battery life: Up to 18 hours | Waterproof rating: 5ATM

Built for both pool and open water swimming like the Apple Watch 4, the Apple Watch 5 boasts auto stroke detection, automatic sets and detailed splits.

Moreover with each and every generation, the Apple Watch becomes a more serious fitness device and also more durable.

Along with its updated heart rate skills, and also the combination of Apple Watch 5 and watchOS 6 has improved swimming smarts.

Furthermore the always-on display is really useful, and we quickly got used to glancing at the Watch to see the time. It’s actually a little too bright, as in dark conditions it glows rather precariously – some reviewers found themselves turning off the always-on feature quite regular.
