Is the Apple Watch good at overall health tracking for someone who is not an athlete? (alien.top)

So I’m trying to decide between an Oura ring, Whoop, and a Apple Watch Ultra 2. I am in no means in athlete and am in an average health. I’m looking for a tracker to be able to give me insights into how I am sleeping, recovery levels, and basic workout tracking and other health metrics. I’m more interested in things like how does how much I sleep or how much alcohol I have to drink affect my wellbeing instead of how well I recover from a workout. Would the Apple Watch be good for this or should I consider the other options above?

If the primary focus is health with sleep metrics, Oura may be better. Apple Watch is far from the best when it comes to sleep metrics.

And I’d argue that Apple Watch is far from a top contender for fitness too. It lacks a lot of what Garmin, Polar, Wahoo etc. have in terms of tracking. While it is good, I’d look at Garmin, Polar or Wagoo instead.
