I have the Fenix and am happy with it, particularly the display. Upon the sage advice of Seattle Forrest and others, I only record my bike ride activities on my Edge. But I picked up a vintage bike recently and rode it without all the Garmin stuff. I did record that "activity" with the watch only. It worked well, including sending the Live Track info to She Who Must Be Obeyed, and and sending the data to Connect. It is not cheap, but it has worked.
