I thought I could deal without a notification LED on my new Oneplus phone, but it's honestly driving me a little nuts. I'm looking for a watch that looks like a nice watch (preferably analog), but also connects to my phone and has a notification LED. I remember seeing this sort of thing being more common 5 to 10-ish years ago but I'm not having much luck tracking one down now.

I literally do not need any other features. No fitness tracking, no GPS, no music, no speakerphone, no nothing. If it has them, fine, but I won't need or use them. All I want is a little LED that lets me know in a timely manner that a notification popped up on my phone, on a watch that looks like a classy watch, and with a companion app that isn't a subpar piece of shit.

I'm okay with having to charge it maybe every few weeks, but I will be damned if I get some stupid overpriced gadget that needs a daily charge and makes me look like a techbro.
