I'm posting this in the Hobbies area since I feel like interest in wristwatches (and watch collecting, if you're into that) is probably more of a niche thing these days.
I've always been into wristwatches since I was a kid, and I have a small collection right now.. Although I have a smartwatch which I wear most of the time when I wear a watch, sometimes I like to wear one of my classic watches. I like the way they look and the craftsmanship that goes into a wristwatch. Plus I like the convenience of looking at my wristwatch to see the time so I don't have to take my phone out of my pocket.
I just heard about the Casio ABL100WE-1AVT watch, which is designed like one of their popular classic retro watches but has some modern features such as a step tracker and Bluetooth connectivity for a smartphone to synchronize time (and for configurability from a smartphone).
This is Casio's US page for the watch:

To buy one, it looks like stock is low from a lot of stores, but Buckle seems to have them in stock currently:
