Vibration Watches
I am finding these watches are getting more wrist time lately. I find the vibration function useful enough that I find myself wondering why they are not more ubiquitous.
One drawback is the relatively limited number of reminders that can be programmed into a standard digital watch. FitBits and other activity trackers offer more options but I keep wondering if there might not be a solution for those who don't want to yield that much wrist real estate to a tracker.

Smart watches often use rechargeable batteries that already get as little as a few days on a charge. Vibration takes a ton of power.

I am finding I really like the vibrating hourly signal.

My fitbit has a nice strong vibration alarm. Alarms are set through my connected phone.

Yep. I lost Flex and just replaced it with one of the newer models. Have not set it up yet. Looking forward to getting back into the swing with my FitBit.

I love the practicality of an hourly alarm, but actually using one seems very nerdy somehow. A vibrating alarm is a great way round this. Here's mine

That is likely what happened. Yeah size info would be great.
