I'm not saying the Series 4 or 5 aren't worth it.
But it's nearly double the price.
The Series 3 is in a great position right now. It has a ton of features, works smoothly on watchOS 6, and will be supported by watchOS 7. It does everything that is needed for a huge portion of the smartwatch market, for a very good price.
If anything happened to my Series 3, I would have no hesitation replacing it with another Series 3, rather than "upgrading".
