Question

Smartwatch like device, which one to get?

Feb 19, 2015 12:18AM PST

Hello,
First of all, my apologies if this post is repeated elsewhere and already discussed.
That said, I'm looking for a smartwatch like device to wear on my wrist with a bunch of specific features. I've been trying for months now to research on my own, but get increasingly confused by what I find. So in desperation I'm asking you kind folks for suggestions.

Features I'm looking for in order of importance:
Time and Date - UTC and local simultaneous
Waterproof - resistant at least
Music controller - just to use as a remote for my phone
Notifications - message, call, etc.
Heart Rate Monitor with history tracking
Sleep Monitor
Activity Tracker - steps, run, etc.

My phone is a HTC One M8. Will be much appreciated if I can get a solution from suggestions.

Thank you.
