I've been wearing an Apple Watch since it launched in 2015. The activity tracking and workout metrics are useful for keeping track of how active I am. It's not life changing. The heart rate monitoring has been incredibly useful for me. Over the last year, I've had 2-3 instances where my heart rate got rather high while sedentary. Those moments were times when I was having panic attacks. I could feel my heart racing, my thoughts were spiraling, and I knew something was wrong. When this happens, the Apple Watch notified me that my heart rate was irregular. I consulted my primary doctor about this, showed him the graphs and explained the stressful situations, and he helped get me in contact with someone who could better help me to deal with this. I know it's a minor thing, but it made a big difference and got me talking with the right kinds of medical professionals for an issue I was seemingly avoiding. Yea, it took almost 4 years of wearing this device, but it's made a difference.
