I would like to see Samsung add GMT itself as an available time zone in the World Clock.

Also, I upgraded from the Galaxy Watch to the Galaxy Watch 6 Classic. This has been a nice jump/upgrade for me. It's a very nice Watch with a wonderful bunch of features.

Just a quick reivew on the 6 47mm Classic.  Traded in the 5 Pro for the much missed rotating bezel.  First thing I noticed was the increase and size and the screen was much better on the 6. AOD is turned off everything else I left alone for now.   I just received it Wednesday and used it for two days.  Had a couple of problems but similar problems also occurred on the Watch 4 and 5.  First problem was downloading music to the watch from both YouTube and Amazon.  WiFi was turned on and bluetooth was running.  About 2 hours later no music was downloaded.  What I had to do was turn off Bluetooth so the watch consistently used Wifi.  I found that with Bluetooth on WiFi would just stop and both services download over WiFi only apparently (the 5 Pro was like this also).  Second problem I had was I started an exercise just shut down after starting.  I started the app to record a general weight lifting exercise and remember hearing the beeps on startup.  20 minutes later I check the watch and the app was not running so the time was not recorded.  This also happened a few times on the 5 Pro, very infrequent.  I did one 90 minute exercise yesterday using GPS and music, no phone with me.  The battery was at 93% when I started and finished at 68%.  25% used for GPS and music.  Most likely will be a daily charger for me, not a big deal.  The size for me at 47mm is probably the biggest I would go for my wrist.  The 6 Classic is not as thick as the 5 Pro so it is more comfortable to wear.  Other than the smaller battery I really like the changes Samsung did this year.

I just upgraded to the 6 Classic 47mm from the Watch 4 44mm. I love it. Bigger, brighter, clear very snappy compared to the 4. Battery ehhh but I am using AOD but that may be turned off soon.

But I think it's a nice upgrade. Hardware and software wise. Plus I missed the rotating bezel, so glad to have that back.
