Looking for the best watch to get for my grandma with black Friday coming up. She’s getting up there in age so I want to get her something with some sort of fall detection and maybe other age/health benefits. What watch should I get her? Obviously she doesn’t need the newest model, but I’d like to get her one that has the features mentioned above. Thanks!

    Depending on her fall risk, AW could really work well for her. I think a couple people listed some really good tips about who it’s good for and not. I would recommend a cellular model as it can call 911 without a cellular plan or iPhone nearby.

    My mother wears it, but the one time she didn’t is when she fell. Luckily a neighbor found her and she was able fine but needed help getting off the ground. Seriously, the one time! She loves it and never takes it off except for charging and showering. I’m a fall risk and feel comfortable with AW for help if I fall. I’ve got an elderly neighbor that’s in her mid nineties and she has a service for a necklace type emergency button and that’s probably appropriate for her now whereas maybe a couple years ago she was more stable and could’ve used AW instead.
